A fundamental strategy of sales is the elimination of hurdles that prevent clients from purchasing a particular product or service.  For this very reason, Vantage Controls invested in the development of control system drivers to enable their dealer partners to win more opportunities and complete projects more efficiently by integrating Vantage solutions with their choice of control system platforms.

One example of their commitment to seamless integration is Vantage’s ease of connectivity and optimal user experience with the popular Crestron Home platform.  Through a new collaboration with AV software developer Control Concepts, Vantage had Crestron Home Drivers developed to ensure there would be no hesitation that the two products would work together without a hitch.

“Investment in control system drivers is critical, but they are only worth it when they deliver value on the promise of time savings, ease of use, reliability, and reduced technical support,” said Michael Campagna, Product Manager for Vantage Controls.  “Working with Control Concepts provided the solution that we were hoping to achieve.  Their knowledge, experience, and effective communication made it obvious that we made the right choice and Control Concepts would ensure that we achieve our desired result.”

“The Vantage lighting solution is one that provides a lot of options and functionality that clients desire.  It is important that these capabilities are properly presented in their Crestron Home driver through a logical, effective, and easily usable manner,” remarked Steve Greenblatt, Control Concepts’ President & Founder. “Simplifying the control requirements for robust, feature rich products through development of drivers, modules, and plugins is our specialty!  We look forward to the opportunity to continue supporting Vantage, their dealers, and programmers looking to integrate Vantage products with Crestron Home and other control systems of choice.”

Vantage InFusion Crestron Home Drivers can be readily downloaded from the Vantage page on Control Concepts’ Manufacturer Partner site or from Crestron’s Driver Web Portal.
