Depending on your needs the SmartBuildings or Consumer app may be the appropriate solution for you.
If you are managing few thermostats (5 and under) and do not require multi-user logins, and bulk settings and configuration across all your thermostats, the free consumer portal may be the best one for you.
If you are managing multiple thermostats (5+) across multiple locations, require multi-user access management, and bulk settings, SmartBuildings may be the better solution.
