TWIL is an innovative wireless lighting management technology that allows configuration and control of installations through smart devices and PCs. A lighting system with TWIL technology can include high efficiency luminaires and automatic brightness controls based on the intended use of the enlightened environment, lighting to be provided in the area of the visual eld and the occupation and/or availability of natural light in a given environment. The TWIL system makes use of sensors that have a dual function, namely the detection of brightness and motion. The sensors interact with the fixtures to intelligently light an environment, saving energy and maintaining a constant level of lighting where needed; they can be installed at elevated heights of up to 11m, and are therefore compatible with industrial and commercial applications (high bay applications). With the App, TWIL allows you to manage, monitor and control many operating parameters of the fixtures, including the consumption of both the single unit and the entire system and to make clear accumulated energy savings, thanks to the potential use of the sensors or scheduling of lighting scenarios. TWIL technology enters the world of the new industrial revolution that moves forward on the internet, or industry 4.0. Production machines and systems communicate with each other and speak with the outside. TWIL LED technology is naturally integrated into this trend.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Forrest at fortnightly against TWIL's every 6 months. TWIL's advantage is iOS requirement (14.2 vs 17). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
