Well, I wanted to upgrade to a thermostat that I could control from anywhere in the world with temperature and humidity readings and settings. Turns out, Google is discontinuing the Nest line.

Sooo, what is a good, solid, easy to use, internet accessible and settable alternative?

I have two Ecobee thermostats; one at my house and the other in my condo; they are fantastic. As soon as guests depart our condo, I remote login and adjust the temperature. It sure beats driving 30 miles.
