Because as soon as there is an Adquio controller in a Casambi installation, you are no longer “just” managing lights: you are opening the door to a whole ecosystem of solutions that multiply what you can offer to your customers… and what you can bill.
In this article I want to show you everything that this “little” controller can do for you when you connect it to the rest of the Adquio Ecosystem:
Let’s start with the basics.
With an Adquio controller in the middle, Casambi is no longer “an app per network” but a centralized and scalable system.
You can manage any number of Casambi networks from a single point.
You can orchestrate behavior between networks that previously lived in total isolation.
You can grow in phases, expanding networks and spaces without changing platforms.
That Adquio controller is the anchor point: from it all the other pieces of the ecosystem are connected.
Casambi scenes are powerful… until your client wants something more lively: they adapt to changes in the building and to external events or data.
That’s where Adquio LiveScenes comes in on your Adquio controller:
Dynamic lighting that adjusts itself, without anyone touching anything. One wall is removed, the lighting extends to the new space.
External data from other software such as shifts, logistics, loading and unloading, etc.
Regulation according to the activity needs of the space.
Your client moves from fixed scenes to a living system that evolves with the actual use of the building.
In the past, talking about consumption in a Casambi network involved construction work, analyzers, wiring and endless budget discussions.
With Adquio PowerTrace for Casambi and your Adquio controller, that changes:
You do not need additional physical meters.
No need to run new cables.
You do not need to “stop” the installation.
Adquio PowerTrace for Casambi converts events and data from your Casambi network into kWh, costs and clear graphs:
Consumption by zone, floor, store, aisle…
Comparisons by schedule or by tenant.
Reports that are understood and can be presented to the CFO without fear.
Results: fewer disputes, more objective data and an installation that speaks the language of energy, without extra hardware.
Your customer doesn’t want “just another app”. They want a clear, operational panel adapted to their reality.
With Adquio SCADA Server and the Adquio Screen family of displays (including, for example, Adquio Screen 10″ and Adquio Wall Screens), your Adquio controller controller becomes the heart of a fully customized interface:
Synchronize all your Casambi networks with customized synoptics.
You design wall or desktop touch screens that speak the language of the building: floor plans, icons, real names of areas.
You combine lighting with other systems (climate, blinds, sensors…) in a single control panel.
Result:
You stop selling “a controller” to sell a complete control center for the installation.
Your customers are asking more and more:
“I want to see this in my platform”,
“I want my Casambi data to go into my corporate tool”,
“I want to cross this with my BMS, ERP or reservation system”.
With Adquio.API (Adquio’s standard REST API in the cloud) and your Adquio controller:
You export all your Casambi network data in a structured way.
Integrates with any application that speaks HTTP/JSON.
You enable bidirectional integrations: you not only read data, you can also send commands to the installation.
You are no longer “locked” into a single interface.
With Adquio.API, your Adquio controller becomes a universal connector of your Casambi networks with the rest of the building’s digital ecosystem.
Until now, Casambi’s big problem was the remote “control gap”:
how to get into the customer’s network without weird VPNs, without open ports and without praying that someone was there with the mobile?
With Adquio Full Remote Access for Casambi and an Adquio controller in the installation, you can:
Access Casambi networks remotely and completely, as if you were right there.
Support, adjustments and maintenance in real time, from anywhere.
Forget about setting up VPNs or opening ports in the client’s firewall.
It is simple, secure by design and designed for 24/7 operation.
Result: less travel, shorter response time and customers who feel that you are always “just a click away”.
Some projects need more than just fixed screens: they want their own control app, with their own logo, zones and way of working.
With Adquio APP Builder and your Adquio controller:
You generate customized control applications in a matter of hours.
You publish interfaces for web, Android and iPhone without programming a single line of code.
You adjust the app exactly to the installation: views by groups, by area, by user, by permission.
The best:
All the power comes from your Adquio controller data.
You change something in the project, and the app adapts.
You stop selling “just hardware” to deliver a complete digital experience of the Casambi installation.
The most natural way to interact with technology is no longer buttons, but voice.
With Adquio VoiceLink for Alexa and an Adquio controller controller we have just that:
You control scenes, zones and functions of your installation by speaking.
You can turn on, turn off, change levels or activate entire logics without touching a screen.
You create “wow” experiences in hotels, premium offices, high-end housing, retail…
“Alexa, set up the meeting room”,
“Alexa, presentation mode in the auditorium”,
“Alexa, dim the lobby lighting”.
Your Adquio controller becomes the gateway between Casambi and the world of voice assistants.
When you have an Adquio controller in a Casambi network, you actually have:
A system capable of controlling any number of networks.
Dynamic lighting with Adquio LiveScenes.
Energy metrics without physical meters with Adquio PowerTrace for Casambi.
Custom SCADA interfaces and touch screens with Adquio SCADA Server and the Adquio Screen family.
Full integration via Adquio.API.
Complete and secure remote access with Adquio Full Casambi Remote Access.
Custom Apps in hours with Adquio APP Builder.
Voice control with Adquio VoiceLink for Alexa.
All of that is there, ready to be activated.
That’s why we say that if you have an Adquio controller, you have a treasure.
And now the question is for you:
👉 What else do you need us to do for you and your Casambi projects?
Because the most interesting thing about this treasure is that it is alive: it grows with every new solution we launch and with every challenge that partners like you present us with.
Your Adquio controller becomes the gateway to a world of solutions.
