o    This is a game changer for us and our 4Sight service.  For you, it makes selling 4Sight that much easier.
Q: Is the new ‘4Sight Anywhere’ feature different from the current 4Sight?
 
A: Nope, they are the exact same thing. It’s still the same exact 4Sight, we’ve just renamed it to reflect the new remote access capabilities (available with 2.4) from your mobile devices. So the same $99 will give you all the same features you already have with 4Sight, but with the addition of remote access via the MyHome app on your mobile device (iOS or Droid).
