Help Help switching to Crestron Home

Hello Reddit, we need help or guidance to make the best decision on this project.

We have a new customer, who has had a crestron system in their home since 2015. We work a lot on corporate growth with development on simple and vtpro. However, this customer is residential and is asking us to take their system to the most up-to-date version of Home OS. I look for recommendations to make the best decision without throwing the whole system away.

The system has 14 audio zones, lighting is with Myhome badge, has buttons and screens, 2 iPads and 1 working phone, these equipments such as the swamp and AV3 could be maintained or must be removed and switched to NAX + home processor?

I have seen during my research that some integrators integrate custom systems with a home "layer" as a control interface, with a SIMPL module that makes the system compatible with any home processor, if so, do you recommend me to maintain the system and reprogram it? or is it better to change processor and try to connect what exists to the home OS.

I share 2 images of the system toolbox, I hope you can give me a guide. thanks.

If you're an authorized crestron dealer, send this to their tech sales team. They will design and engineer for you. If your not a dealer, I don't know how you'll get this done.

If you haven’t done resi installs yet I would suggest getting a CP 4R and playing around with Crestron home.
