	This is meant to be an informative, objective comparison of Vera and the other Z-Wave gateways, not a 1-sided sales pitch. If other Z-Wave gateways have features we have not listed, you can add those features. You can also add other gateways that are not on the list, and correct any mistakes and add notes.

-| Meaning if the manufacturer stopped supporting the product, would it still function. With Vera, only the optional hosted online services depend on Mi Casa Verde, all local functions are independent, and Vera will run without an internet connection. In Hawking's case, cell phone access would stop and limited other functions would continue. User will need to know how to hack the units back door. In Schlage's case, the product will not function at all if you don't pay the monthly bill or if Schlage discontinues support for the product. However the Lock itself will still function as a keypad lock. The remote capabilities and programming will be disabled.On another note If internet connection is lost all timers/events will cease to occur during that time, The Schlage Link is just a bridge no internal triggers seem to be stored in the bridge.

-| Schlage Link Bridge does not seem to support SUC/SIS. Meaning you cannot add a controller as a secondary inclusion conroller. A secondary inclusion controller can be used to include devices without removing a dongle or diconnecting the bridge. This setup aids in network setup as issues are immediately shown during installation.
