Short Answer:
The best smart home systems for luxury estates are Crestron Home and Savant, with the right choice depending on user experience desired. (Think Android vs. Apple.)

Comparison:

• Crestron:
  Fully custom, enterprise-level control for large estates. Most likely to be able to integrate lesser-known sensors and devices.
• Savant:
  Premium interface with strong Apple ecosystem integration. Sensors and IOT devices need to be “Savant Approved” to work with the system.

What Matters More Than the Brand:
The integrator designing and programming the system.
