I'm pretty sure every smart device I have now goes through my hubitat elevation hub. Groups and the one routine I use are done in alexa, so it s a pretty clean delineation if I need to troueshoot anything. The hubitat has community-written drivers for kasa and the few other wifi devices I have and handles all the ZigBee devices natively. They can all be controlled local with the hub's dashboards, And they're all exposed to Alexa in the cloud through the hubitat's Alexa skill app. After my dvr-killing brownouts the other week, I had my first ever problem of two of the kasa devices not responding. I had to remove and readd them to the hub. It was easy enough to do, and it was the first time it had happened in the couple years I've had them.
