Logitech Harmony 880 Advanced Universal Remote Control

I used to love Harmony, but the new web site leaves a lot to be desired. You have to create a new account, imagine if you needed a different account for each store you shoppped at, rather than have 1 account with multiple devices.
Also you need to remember the device rather than have thoe dropdowns populated,how do you know if it can control the device if it’s physically not there.
Too me this smacks of a small great company being bought by a big one and being institutionalized, whoever redesigned this site doesnt have a wand (or two) and does’nt care about the users.

I just bought the 880 and altough it seems like a promising device I can’t get it to connect with my computer. The install instructions are not clear and give you no idea of what to expect. When I called customer support (within the posted hours) I get put on hold and then after about 10 min or so the recording asks you to leave a message and hangs up on you. I should have expected problems when the “test drive” on the web did not work properly and when others on the net had expressed problems with install and customer support. For the price I think they should at least answer the phone and have usefull and easy to understand prompts to guide the install. One of the automated recommendations is to click on a link and re-install the software. When you click on the link you get “file not found”. I would look for a different product – this one is not worth the frustration.

This is NOT your answer to multiple devices. Simply, it does not do the job and I wish I hadn’t spend the money on it. Poor battery life is its strongest feature. It doesn’t handle the multiple tasks it is advertised to do. If you buy this junk, do not put your factory remotes away. What do I really think of it; it belongs in the circular file cabinet.

This is the remote control that ruined Christmas. Unless all your home theater equipment is relatively new, I’d advise against trying this product. Total time for three people (all of whom work in IT) attempting to program the remote to control a new TV and six legacy home theater systems = 15 hours. Sample dialog:
Mother (after 4 hours programming): I still can’t get it to turn on the transceiver
Daughter: Maybe you should just return it
Father: The guy at [large electronics store] said it was easy to set up
Mother (after 6 hrs): Everything is working except the DVD player
Daughter: The surround sound is not working either. Maybe you should just return it.
Father: The [large electronics store] says they’ll come program it for $150
Mother: I’m not paying $150 for someone to program a remote control
TWO WEEKS LATER
Daughter-in-law: I’ll program it. (after 3 hrs) The transceiver won’t turn off and the DVD player doesn’t work.
Daughter: I told you you should have just returned it.
Mother: It’s too late to return it. Why does it have three profiles now?
Daughter-in law: (after 2 hours) I’ve found a way to delete the old profiles, but it won’t turn the TV on now. I’ll write you instructions for how to use the four old remotes.
Note, most of this dialog repeats…over and over.

This device simply fails to deliver on the promise of universal remote for those with more elaborate setups. The clunky setup interface lacks much-needed abilities to add specific commands in a startup sequence, and the need to log in to Logitech’s online system to change commands is absurd.
DO NOT buy this remote, period.
