Abstract: Abstract This article discusses the advantages and potentials products of ABB, a global leader in electrical products and solutions, offer. The company’s smart home automation system ABB-free@home® provides sufficient solutions for an automated home, such as a detection grid, which notices the owners approaching their house on the basis of hardware supply. However, the article identifies shortcomings regarding the software. The company may overhaul its direct connection to the consumer as opposed to its current third-party outsourcing. The implementation of cloud-based solutions and a reduced dependence on hardware could greatly improve the services and products provided by ABB.
