I believe that Nest is a better product. 1) It has a great feature that monitors gps locations of all family members to know how far they are away from the property. It is smart enough to know to start preheating/precooling once one of family members get closer to the house. 2) Nest is easy to install and doesnt require an expensive electrician installation, saving you $100s. Many older homes dont have a common (c-wire) that is required for the ecobee installation. Nest is okay to install without the common wire, which is a definite saving. 3) nest often has deeper discounts than exobee, although both of them retail for the same price. Also both thermostats often have a rebate from the gas/electric provider. For example, until dec 31st you can get a $75 from nationalgrid.
Overall, both are great thermostats. It will save you money on your gas/electric bill (15-25%), it is cool, and will make you feel that you made a smart decision regardless which thermostat you get. Most people I know have no regrets. Nest though in my opinion has a slight lead due to the overall cost and extra functionality.
In my opinion, Nest is a better thermostat for many reasons.
Here are some-
1) more marketing.
2) easy-install.
3) in most cases, no lectrician required.
4) owned by Google, a very reputable company.
These are just some reasons.
Nest is the way to go. The more you use it the smarter it gets. I love the feature where it figures out when you leave the house based on your phone gps location
