What is the difference between Crestron and Savant?

Crestron and Savant are both high-end automation platforms found in luxury residential and commercial projects. Savant emphasizes a refined consumer-facing interface and an Apple-ecosystem-aligned user experience, which appeals to clients who prioritize the daily touchscreen interaction. Crestron competes on depth of integration, enterprise-grade reliability, and programmability -- it is the dominant platform in commercial, hospitality, and government environments in addition to luxury residences. Crestron's processor and switching hardware is generally more capable for large-scale AV distribution and complex logic. Both are dealer-only platforms with comparable pricing at the high end. The right choice depends on the project, the owner's priorities, and the installer's expertise. Restrepo Innovations is an Elite Pro Crestron Dealer with deep Crestron programming experience across residential and commercial divisions.
