Everything has worked better since we started using it
Sometimes the syncing is inconsistent. I'm confident that the devices are checking in every eight hours, but sometimes the devices aren't picking up the settings as quickly as I would expect.

They have just kind of gone through the roof when it comes to pricing and I think that they are justifying that because of the demand.
