### 1/5 — Scheduling a task is inoperative

*2022-03-22*

I have two devices at separate locations. My first device was purchased three years ago and worked flawlessly. My second device I’ve had eight months. The second device has never worked properly, and now the first device is having the same issues. 

 My newer device and my older device will not save a schedule. The saving function is intermittent. When it does save the schedule is deleted prior to the scheduled day. 

The manual reset feature is the only function that works.

### 5/5 — This does work!

*2020-01-24*

I have used ezOutlet in front of servers and downstream of servers.  And it has worked as designed perfectly. 

I bought the first one more than 10 years ago and it’s still in service.

### 1/5 — Not working with T-Mobile

*2018-08-02*

App does not work with T-Mobile cell service. I was told it was a IPV 6 issue with T-Mobile.  App only works with IPV 4. If you have T-Mobile the app will only work off of a WiFi network. They told me they may fix but no guarantee.

### 1/5 — Cheap not reliable

*2017-10-31*

Been trying to use it for the last several days and it says server busy whoever supports this isn't doing a good job. Only works on the lan not very well outside of the network

### 1/5 — Does not work. Server down

*2017-10-26*

The outlets rely on a server to give remote reset functionality to the users. If the server goes down we cannot control our outlets. The server has been down for weeks and I am unable to manage/reset my outlets from this app remotely. The only reset I can do is if I locally manage the outlet via it's local IP address. What a joke

### 1/5 — Won't work without internet connection

*2017-07-23*

This thing is advertised to automatically reset devices like cable modems when they hang and lose internet connections. Except you can't use this app without internet access! What possible reason to talk to a server just to talk to a device on the local network is beyond me.

### 5/5 — GREAT

*2017-04-03*

Love this unit! Works as advertised. Saves me 100's of hours a year. I have many remote sites that need rebooting from time to time. Some I can't get to easily in the winter. This unit totally solved my reset problems. I have at least 12.

### 5/5 — Great app for the hardware

*2016-05-24*

Worst perfectly.

### 5/5 — It Works - House Network Reboot - Remotely

*2015-11-09*

This works - using it to reboot the main home wireless router; the one that is actually controlling the WiFi that is used to control this EzOutlet - use the reset only feature (cuts power to the router, it then automatically waits a couple of seconds and then provides power back to the router) When there is a wifi problem at home, I can remotely reboot it from within the house or anywhere there is a cellular connection. The App needs some 'polishing up' but it functions as it should. Currently only have one EzOutlet running, but based on how this works, I will definitely get additional ezOutlets to control other items.
