Ratings and reviews

Must have app for anyone with an Elk M1 system. Very easy to use and set up, surprisingly responsive, almost immediate communication to the panel, and tech support is awesome! No need to play with router settings or IP addresses, just setup in software and go! Two recommendations for future updates: 1.) Ability to hide specific zones or outputs. -OR- Have a screen on the app where you can add "favorite" zones/outputs you can view at a glance. 2.) Add history for push notifications.

This is the Application Elk Products needed to launch as soon as M1 Cloud became an option. Thanks to the folks at DroidSoft I have new hope for the M1 & M1XEP. I recommend this App. Support has been first rate. The notification options alone are worth the subscription and you won't be like the hundreds of customers I service in Chicagoland that call me when they are out of town for holidays and their eK app won't connect because Xfinity wiped the port forwarding in their gateway.
