Does what it is supposed to and you can program from the front panel or from your phone. It is perfect for what I need, as I am not so much interested in the automated adjustments due to weather conditions, which I have not paid much attention to. It has notified me though that it was skipping watering because it was raining or was about to rain within a few hours. It is kind of far from my WiFi router but seems to be working well. The ability to ater any zone manually is important for tsting and setting up the sprinkler system - and worked fine even a hundred feet or more into the yard.

Do not buy this product. We had it mounted inside our garage about 20 ft from the router on the other side of a wall. It was a bit flaky from the beginning and would at times disconnect, but it ran. Bought this in April 2021, It died in July 2023. "No AC" error on the display screen. The wall plug was still live and the internal transformer was still producing 27.8 volts to the mainboard. Did all the troubleshooting with no results. Was on a chat for a warranty request with Orbitz for an hour before they finally told me they would not replace it because the 2 yr warranty period had expired. I will not be buying these anymore.

Overall this was pretty simple to set up. The unit seems solid and well made. The wiring terminations seem secure. The smartphone app works well.The price is good for a 12 circuit system with all the features.Having this controlled by app is just wonderful.There are some small irritations. The label over the terminal lugs is not quite sized correctly so it’s hard o tell which circuit you are connecting. The app assumes you have a six circuit controller and you have to fiddle with the settings on to find where they hid the other six. The smart weather features are fussy.

I have been using Orbit controllers for about 10 years. I recently upgraded 4 of my rental houses to this newer Bhyve model. It makes it so much easier to check on the systems. No longer, do I need to drive to each property, walk into the backyard, avoiding dogs and s.t.u.f.f. I asked each tenant to allow me to connect them to their home WiFi and now I can sit at home and adjust the programs (or anything for that matter). If someone's WiFi drops out for some reason, I can still go within sight of the controller and control it with Bluetooth. (outside the fence and away from the dogs.) The controller box is rated indoor/outdoor. My older controllers were in the same type box and they did just fine, outside. The app on the phone is your best bet for controlling them. ... MoreI have been using Orbit controllers for about 10 years. I recently upgraded 4 of my rental houses to this newer Bhyve model.

The controller box is rated indoor/outdoor. My older controllers were in the same type box and they did just fine, outside. The app on the phone is your best bet for controlling them. It's a little tedious working with the front panel, but you can do everything you need there, if you are without your cell phone. The feature I like the best if being able to wander the yard and turn on zones while I watch the heads. No running back and forth to the controller or having a 2nd person. Just a couple of clicks and zone is on. One more and it's off. Awesome.
Provides reliable internet access to manage and control your sprinkler system. As with any smart technology there is a learning curve however most functions are fairly intuitive. It took me less than an an hour to swap out my old controller and install this. Another 30 minutes to set up my zones and a program cycle. Using the app is relatively straightforward. Recommended.
I'd like to write a good review after getting a full season out of the 21004 B-hyve Smart Hose Faucet Timer with Wi-Fi Hub, but after storing it over the winter and trying to get another season's use out of it, I've had to finally get rid of it. Let's start with the wifi enablement - it just doesn't work. No matter how many times you reset it, it won't work for more than a day or two. Then let's go to the bluetooth feature - that's a good back-up plan in theory, but in practice, it too stops working. And b/c these features fail the device starts to drain the batteries trying to connect to the wifi hub. Thus you're left with a device that dies each week. I tried customer service - email, text, call (and being forced to leave a VM) but got no one after the first ... MoreI'd like to write a good review after getting a full season out of the 21004 B-hyve Smart Hose Faucet Timer with Wi-Fi Hub, but after storing it over the winter and trying to get another season's use out of it, I've had to finally get rid of it.

I tried customer service - email, text, call (and being forced to leave a VM) but got no one after the first time. And that first time I was given instructions to "reset the wifi hub". So here we are - I'd avoid buying this item with the wifi hub as it will let you down, but two stars seems fair since I did get one season's use out of it.
if your serious about your lawn continue reading. First of installation. Poor to no instructions. (I'm very handy)- I had to google and watch a u-tube video to figure out why the zones would not turn on. Turns out the label (put on crooked) marking the terminal connections (super cheap Phillip heads that strip and do not tighten well) was off by one position. (took about an hour to figure that one out). This was just a random video and not from Beta-Hyve. Once I got it up and running the first thing it said was that my soil moisture levels were at 17%??? how exactly did it determine this with 15 year old sprinkler heads that are not "smart" anyways that leads into the whole smart watering, rain delays and the system deciding when it wants to water which is a train ... Moreif your serious about your lawn continue reading.

The phone app is twitchy at best and is determining my weather from another state which I've reset three times. Its just the small things like the key for the barrel lock on the unit does not fit! really, no QA or attention to detail here. The app drops from WIFI often and you have to go into setting and give it a kick even though the router is 20ft away. I purchased Beta Hive to help water my new lawn and my old rainbird does not have enough flexibility to water 4 times per day. I'll be going back to that unitwhen my grass is in. DO not trust this unit, you have to baby sit it every day. In short it looks like it might be a good product some day if they can turn around their QA and spend some money on development but they are not there yet. Here is a idea for Beta Hyve, try having someone not familiar with your product test installing it using your directions. You would be amazed to learn how you've missed the mark. Rule of thumb is you don't have developers test there own Work. try you again(maybe) in a few years
I was able to configure the unit but WiFi setup was very sketchy insofar as I had to reset the system several times. The instructions are virtually useless and Customer Support - virtually non-existent as they take several days to respond to texts or phone calls to their support number and sometimes do not respond at all. The app (I have an iOS Apple iPhone) freezes and requires phone reboots to correct. The rain sensor feature does not function correctly and the unit runs even if the jumper is removed - tech support NEVER responded to my concerns about this. Thinking of replacing the unit with a Rain Bird controller - too many nuisance issues. FJT1
Comes in either a 6 or a 12 zone configuration [will handle all but the largest residential jobs]. Works indoor or out door. Works as either a standard clock timer or it shines as a wifi enabled smart controller. If you take the time to set up your zones with "smart watering details" and answer about 10 questions per zone [one time] you can turn it over to smart watering and let the app calculate when to water and for how long and it does a great job. Only one other brand [Rachio] I'm aware of has this feature and it is a game changer. Take the guess work out of irrigation settings. This controller worked great in our recent Texas drought and it also conserves water during wet season as well as any other smart controller I've used [Rainbird, Hunter, Toro etc].

The phone app is one of the most intuitive I've used in the industry. Only downside is that B-Hyve customer service has been more difficult to reach as they grow. Some thing I hope they address quickly because when you need help they are great, just very difficult to get ahold of at times.
So much easier to manage my sprinkler schedule with the app. Functionality wise, install, wiring and setup was super easy. The state (Utah) I live in has $75 rebates for this smart controller, so it ended up costing me less $27 with tax included!BestBuy had the best price around, easily beating the local hardware stores by $20-$30.I was contemplating the more expensive 16 zone 57995 B-Hyve model. But that was over twice as much, and this 12 zone model more than met my needs. It should also should be mentioned that regardless of what Orbit B-Hyve Smart Controller you buy, the app functionality is identical between all of them. So keep that in mind. The 57995 model looks really cool and has 4 extra zones (I only need 9), but when it's just going to sit in a corner ... MoreSo much easier to manage my sprinkler schedule with the app. Functionality wise, install, wiring and setup was super easy.
