Our take
As the world shifts toward sustainable transport, housing, and lifestyle solutions, ecobee's smart home devices are well-positioned to address domestic energy efficiency. Known for creating the world's first WiFi-enabled thermostat, ecobee offers a range of smart home products.
Despite being an early market entrant, ecobee has expanded its product line to stay competitive. By integrating Alexa into its devices, ecobee has significantly grown its customer base and strengthened its relationship with Amazon, similar to how its competitor, Nest, partnered with Google.
In 2021, ecobee was acquired by Generac, a major power industry player aiming to expand into sustainable solutions. This acquisition has provided ecobee with the resources to reach a global market and continue leading in sustainability innovations.
