Nest vs Ecobee, which is the best smart thermostat for Airbnb?

Summary

Jon Bell discusses the limitations of Nest thermostats for scaling a short-term rental business, specifically the restriction to four homes per account, which led to a switch to ecobee. He explains how the 'learning' feature in Nest, intended for efficiency, can create discomfort for guests who prefer different temperature settings. He prefers ecobee for its ability to manage multiple properties, customize temperature settings, and efficiently manage power usage during vacancies, despite its lack of integrated smoke detector support.
