I've recently started using Deadline at home on my desktop due to Redshift crashes in Maya. I'm now completely setup for Maya, Houdini, and Nuke. I'm also working on getting a FFMPEG python script set up so I can kick Adobe to the curb for good.
This won't completely replace Zync for me due to it only being a single computer but this will help if I have the time to send a few renders and have them cook overnight or I guess for Redshift, have them cook while I walk the dogs.
