#1 if your tank gets to hot it will turn off your lights.
2 - feed mode set to shut off pumps and power heads.
3- if your heater fails on your contorler will cut power to it
4- u can set up a fan to turn on or chiller when temp go up.
5- u can turn on and off anything from your cell or iPad
6- u can check on the tank when your not home threw your phone
Personally I think it's insurance at first u may not have much invested in coral and live stock but u will. Also they all have glitches personally I run apex on both my tanks.

Adding to that list:
7 - if you have a power failure, the controller can delay turning on your skimmer for 5 min (or whatever time you choose), so you don't overflow it.
8 - use a DIY water sensor (costs almost nothing) to turn off return pumps (or other) if there is a problem.
9 - send you emails on any condition you want, like power failures, temps too low or too high.
10 -monitor your power consumption.
11 - control ATO for your sump.
12 - control your dosers.
Etc, etc,...
