What SixEye does

SixEye Limited is a UK-based, privately held software company founded in 2016 and headquartered in London that operates a cloud-based unified remote management platform targeted at control systems integrators. The platform consolidates devices from multiple manufacturers — including architectural lighting, audio-visual, and control systems — into a single web portal delivered at the integrator's own custom Internet domain and carrying the integrator's branding. Core capabilities include firmware and file upload, device triggering, real-time status and logs, scheduled tasks keyed to local sunrise/sunset times, and a granular permissions model controlling access per user, site, device, and function with end-client-facing restrictions.

Core offering

SixEye provides a cloud-based unified remote management platform for systems integrators that consolidates device management and control across multiple manufacturers into a single branded web portal. Integrators receive a portal at their own custom domain with their branding, with granular per-user, per-site, per-device, and per-function permissions. A C++ SDK is provided to device manufacturers at no charge to integrate SixEye connectivity, and a hardware retrofit solution supports devices without native SDK integration.

Product overview

SixEye is a unified remote management platform for systems integrators. The core product is the SixEye portal, which combines management and control of devices from multiple manufacturers into a single branded web portal accessible via custom Internet domains. Manufacturers can integrate their devices using the SixEye SDK (C++ library). For devices without SDK support, the Retrofit Solution add-on provides hardware-based integration supporting extensive protocols including UDP, TCP, RS232, RS485, HTTPS, JSON, Telnet, REST, OSC, Modbus, and KNX over IP.

Functional benefit

Products and services

• SixEye Portal Cloud-based unified remote management web portal that combines management and control of products from multiple manufacturers into a single branded interface accessible at the integrator's own custom Internet domain. Designed for systems integrators managing multi-vendor projects (lighting, audio-visual, control systems), with features including device management, firmware and file upload, triggering, real-time status, logs, notifications, scheduled tasks, and granular permissions.
• SixEye Software Development Kit (SDK) C++ software library provided to device manufacturers to enable rapid integration of their devices with the SixEye platform. The SDK handles device authentication and secure connections with the device gateway and is offered at no charge to manufacturers.
• SixEye Retrofit Solution Hardware-based add-on (solid-state DIN rail-mounted) from a partner manufacturer that enables SixEye connectivity for devices lacking the SixEye SDK. Supports extensive protocols including UDP, TCP, RS232, RS485, HTTPS, JSON, Telnet, REST, OSC, Modbus, and KNX over IP, and provides visual programming without scripting.

• Electronic Theatre Controls (ETC)majorStrategic or Co-development Partner · 4 February 2026SixEye's sister company Pharos Controls Ltd, along with SixEye Ltd, was sold to Electronic Theatre Controls, Inc (ETC). The transaction completed a 20-year collaboration during which Pharos contributed significantly to ETC's architectural product line. This represents a major strategic transaction involving SixEye's ecosystem.

Recent moves4 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Direct peers

• Domotz: Domotz provides cloud-based remote network monitoring and management software specifically built for AV, IT, and smart-home systems integrators. Like SixEye, it targets the same integrator channel with a SaaS portal offering consolidated visibility and control over customer deployments, making it the closest direct competitor.
• OvrC (Snap One): OvrC is a remote management and monitoring platform from Snap One aimed at systems integrators, offering device discovery, troubleshooting, and firmware management for residential and commercial AV/IT installations. It competes head-to-head with SixEye for the integrator's remote-service stack, though it is anchored to Snap One's proprietary hardware ecosystem.
• ihiji (now part of WattBox / Snap One): ihiji delivered cloud-based remote monitoring and management services for AV and IT integrators, including network and device health dashboards. It is a direct functional competitor to SixEye in the unified remote management space for integrators, now consolidated under Snap One's WattBox lineup.

Broad incumbents

• Crestron Electronics: Crestron provides enterprise-grade AV, lighting, and building control systems with its own cloud management and remote service platform (Crestron XiO Cloud). It is comparable to SixEye because it operates a branded portal for integrators to remotely manage deployed devices, but as a much broader incumbent that owns the full hardware-plus-cloud stack rather than a neutral multi-vendor layer.
• Control4 (Snap One): Control4 offers smart-home and commercial automation systems bundled with cloud-based remote management tools for its dealer/integrator channel. Comparable to SixEye through its integrator-led remote service model, though focused on its own branded devices rather than unifying third-party manufacturers.
• Lutron Electronics: Lutron manufactures architectural lighting and shading controls and operates the Lutron Connect cloud platform, which lets integrators and end users remotely manage and monitor their installations. Comparable to SixEye as an architectural-control remote management offering, but vertically integrated into Lutron's own product line rather than vendor-neutral.
• AMX (HARMAN Professional): AMX, part of HARMAN Professional, provides AV control and building automation systems with cloud-based remote management capabilities for integrators. It competes with SixEye in remote servicing of commercial AV/control installations but within HARMAN's broader professional AV portfolio rather than as a stand-alone multi-vendor orchestrator.

Emerging players

• Savant Systems: Savant delivers smart-home and commercial automation systems with an integrator channel and cloud-based remote management features. It overlaps with SixEye's addressable integrators and architectural use cases but focuses primarily on its own branded ecosystem in the premium residential and hospitality segments.
• Extron Electronics: Extron designs AV signal processing, control, and distribution hardware with its own configuration and remote management tooling used by integrators. It competes with SixEye in the AV control remote-management space, though Extron primarily serves its own product catalog rather than aggregating multiple manufacturers.

Others

• Pharos Controls: Pharos Controls is SixEye's sister company, also acquired by ETC in February 2026 after a long collaboration. While distinct in product focus (lighting control), Pharos and SixEye share ownership and end-customer overlap among architectural lighting integrators, making Pharos a strategically related ecosystem participant rather than a direct head-to-head competitor.
