Your posting is REALLY timely in my case...

As an early adopter of HomeAutomation, I have my lawn serviced by 
Cyber-Rain... really "high-tech" among my neighbors at that time, but the 
original Company sold a couple year ago and sending "end-of-life" notices - 
as their services, depends on their cloud Hosting services to function, 
otherwise the lawn will fry...

So, what's going on with Cyber-Rain (http://www.cyber-rain.com), now Galcon.

1) Microsoft Silverlight
"Microsoft Silverlight is a deprecated application framework for writing 
and running rich Internet applications, similar to Adobe Flash. A plugin 
for Silverlight is still available for some browsers." As today, only IE 
would support it.
The requirement of Silverlight, shows that NO further development was 
performed towards Cyber-Rain application.

2) Cyber-Rain apps
Outdated, flawed... 

There are MANY more tech difficulties just to have the Sprinkles to work... 
but no need to mention... Cyber-Rain is gone, and I need a Replacement. 
Unfortunately, another good hardware to go to pile... (and $).

Back to "options"... as I'm researching for Stable and Most connected 
option...

A) OpenSprinkler
Its promising... based on RPi, but still into to early call. And don't want 
to spent more $ to hardware that would have short live....

B) "Any" Sprinkler
Current sided to Rachio 3e, for price and connectivity. with a close call 
by RainMachine.

Feedbacks are welcome, towards WeeWX and HomeAssistant connectivity.
