G1 WiFi Gateway - Temperature and Humidity Sensor Gateway for Data/Alerts from Anywhere via Internet - No Monthly Fee, Unlimited History, Developed/Supported/Hosted in USA

I have previously ordered a wifi temperature sensor from Govee. It was a nice product with amazing analytics but failed to provide email alerts. I could only get alerts when the app was active and only in a transient form. They came and went and I could not find them after the fact in the iPhone notification log. Unless you happen to be looking at your iPhone at right time, there would be no traces of temperature limit violation alerts. Unfortunately, I had to return the Govee product back to Amazon.With some understandable skepticism I ordered the SensorPush gateway and two temperature/humidity sensors. The setup was easy. User instructions were probably the most clear and intuitive that I have seen in a long time. Even the guide itself was printed in relatively large and clear print, which makes a difference for an old person like me.I took me all of 3 minutes to plug the gateway, pair it with iPhone via Bluetooth and then connect to my home wifi. Adding each sensor was another 30-second exercise.Then I started my testing. Notifications for high temperature limit violations were issued very quickly, essentially in real time. I had a little more problem with the low limit thresholds. I put sensors in a fridge a little to far from the gateway and the device kept giving me 65F for a few minutes. I finally understood that the sensor was not communicating with the gateway so no data updates were provided. I took a cold sensor out of the freezer and almost immediately the temperature reading in the app got updated to 20F and I got the alarm I was waiting for.I was able to play around with the calibration and it worked well. Once you adjust the temperature offset, you will be getting accurate readings. I have precise thermometers at home and was able to calibrate SensorPush sensors right on the money.The app, by the way, is so simple it is amazing. Probably the most intuitive I have seen in a long time. As a software developer myself, I was impressed. The cloud service comes free with the device purchase. Several other monitoring services wanted to charge me a fixed price for measurement hardware (more than SensorPush) plus a nice monthly/quarterly fee.Everything was going well except for email notifications. I just could not get them. I ran many tests with various heat sources and proved to myself that this system will produce notifications and will do that quickly and reliably. But without email alerts it was a no-go for me.By the way, you cannot set up the email notifications in the app. You have to go on the SensorPush web site and login into your account to do it. SensorPush is an excellent product and my only recommendation would be to add the email activation directly in the mobile app.The absence of email alerts was disappointing. I submitted a problem report form directly in the app on Sunday in the hope of getting a reply in the next 48 hours. In about 30 minutes I got a confirmation email that my report was received and someone is looking at it. The email asked me to provide more information if I had anything to add. I replied that I wanted to confirm that I did get an email from SensorPush and would like to get similar emails for actual alerts.In a couple of hours I received email from one of the company founders, Nick, who let me know that he examined my account and everything looked good to him. He said that he would be asking his cloud team to dig into the problem. In the meantime, he advised me to check my spam folder.Sure enough, I found all email alerts in the Gmail spam folder. I should have checked it before firing off a complaint. I immediately sent email to Nick thanking him for a quick response and telling him that he was correct in his suspicion.I have retested both sensors under a variety of conditions. I probably did more testing than SensorPush QA people. I confirmed that email alerts are issued reliably and quickly and that notifications are popping up in the iPhone notification log even if the app itself is not active.This is an amazing device with hardware being nicely integrated with the server and app software. I will be getting a second gateway and additional sensors for our other house.

This is a fantastic product for anyone that wants to monitor temperature &/or humidity. I have the sensor in my greenhouse and can check the temperature anytime I want. It was super easy to set up, basically plug it in and go! It is accurate and sets my mind at ease. I has an audible alert for when the temperature is out of the ranges I have set.

I have been a loyal SensorPush user for about 7 years now, and I couldn’t be happier with their products. The G1 WiFi Gateway has been a fantastic addition.The setup was incredibly easy, and it seamlessly connected with my existing SensorPush sensors. The remote monitoring capability is a game-changer, allowing me to check on my fridge, freezer, outdoor fish setup, from anywhere in the world. The data is always accurate, and the alerts are reliable, giving me peace of mind knowing that my everything is in a stable environment.One of the best things about SensorPush is the lack of monthly fees for their cloud service, which is a huge plus. The web dashboard is also very user-friendly and provides a great overview of all my sensors.I've only had to contact their customer support once in all these years, and the experience was excellent. The US-based team was responsive and knowledgeable.If you are serious about monitoring your environment, whether it's for a greenhouse, a freezer, or anything else, I wholeheartedly recommend SensorPush products. They are reliable, easy to use, and backed by a great company.

Setup was a breeze. Installed app on my iPad, used Bluetooth to connect to the gateway and configured the device for WiFi. Located device about 10ft from my wine refrigerator and easily found the sensor I purchased. The application is simple to setup and configure high and low temperature threshold based alarms. Since installing I have been able to see how the compressor works in my fridge and the difference between dual zone units versus single zone wine refrigerator (hint, buy a dual zone…they keep temperature within a tighter tolerance). Without this I would not have known. Really like the historical views of temperature and humidity. Calibration process is by temperature offset from measured temperature and can be done at home. Recommend this product.
