Is Your Legacy Crestron or Savant System Due for An Upgrade?

Your Smart Home Shouldn’t Feel Like a Daily Chore

Homeowners often call with the same story. Their Savant or Crestron smart home system still runs lights, audio, and video, yet using it feels slower and more frustrating than it should. It takes a while for it to respond to commands, and its interfaces feel outdated. Little by little, small changes create big errors. It’s easy, even for the best technology, to fall behind, but it doesn’t mean you have to stay in the past. With a professional upgrade, you get improved performance without having to start from scratch. Titan Technology begins by understanding what is already in place, then focuses its effort where it matters most.

Is Your Crestron or Savant System Due for a Revamp?

Does your “All Off” button take seconds to process, or do changes not happen simultaneously? Older processors paired with years of layered programming will slowly lead to inconsistent responses. Do simple tasks take too many taps, like dimming lights for a movie or switching music between rooms? Interfaces often grow cluttered over time without being reorganized.

Do rooms rely on generic icons instead of familiar visuals? That can cause confusion for guests. Do scene changes require professional help? Adjusting a scene or automation feels risky with a system was never structured for owner-level changes. When you add new features, they don’t work as advertised when paired with old hardware or software. 

What Has Changed in Crestron and Savant Systems? 

The good news is that both Savant and Crestron have worked hard over the years to improve their smart home systems. There's an easy path for you to improve your tech experience. 

Crestron Home software updates expanded device support and enhanced how it responds to real conditions inside a home. Conditional logic now allows automation to react to light levels, occupancy states, and time blocks in predictable ways. Lighting changes gradually through the day instead of switching abruptly. Motorized shades respond to sun exposure rather than fixed schedules. Those changes reduce manual input and improve consistency.

Savant placed heavy emphasis on usability. The app centers around whole-home visibility and fast access to frequently used actions. Rooms appear visually, which shortens decision time. Ongoing app development and guided workflows reinforce the importance of the control experience itself. Savant Home Manager adds cloud-based visibility into system status and tutorials, which supports better ownership and more proactive service.

What a Professional Takeover Upgrade Typically Includes

With a professional takeover, you get a proven process for better performance. Our system takeovers begin by documenting what you already have: processors, touchpanels, remotes, lighting loads, shade types, audio zones, network gear, and existing automation logic all get reviewed so nothing valuable disappears by accident.

Programming follows. When logic proves brittle or outdated, a rebuild creates a cleaner foundation. We’ll work to rebuild your scenes to how you want them to function. We’ll link room menus to real-life photos and make it easy to access your most-used features. We’ll also show you how to edit scenes yourself for a more flexible smart home experience. 

We focus hardware updates where they’ll have the greatest impact. For example, processors or components that limit responsiveness or platform updates get replaced. Everything else stays in place. Network reinforcements come next because control delays and streaming frustration often trace back to the foundation rather than keypads or apps. We then offer ongoing service plans to keep your system updates consistent and quick to avoid another disappointing legacy system in the future. 

We can help you regain confidence in your smart home technology. Schedule a consultation to start a clear modernization plan and understand what your system is truly capable of.
