I've had the MyQ system for the past 7 years, however I don't recommend it. At least not if you are using a retrofit setup for older openers that don't have it built in. The MyQ retrofit wall switches go bad after 4-7 years. When they do, they cause the garage door to randomly open. It happened to me twice when each of the two wall switches went bad. The second wall switch went bad just last week in the middle of the night. I thought someone broke into my garage until I realized the issue.
I believe there is a capacitor that stops charging after a while and when it does it activates the opener switch. Terrible design fault and a huge security issue.
I'm not sure if this issue exists with newer openers that have MyQ built in.
I have a Zwave automation system at home and was looking at a zwave garage controller but those seem to have issues as well.
