The 'Internet of Things'.
The 'Internet of Things' is usually referred to, simply, as 'IoT'.
IoT can connect unique devices, sensors, and machines directly to the internet, and each other.
That internet connection turns those devices into intelligent assets that can communicate with the world around them.
IoT solutions and software can transform businesses - how they operate, how they grow and how they keep their customers happy.
How does IoT benefit your business?
Improve efficiency
Optimise operations and save money by tracking the location of assets and inventory, as well as real time visibility of stock levels.
New business opportunities
Create innovative solutions that solve problems or increase revenue across a number of sectors such as insurance, transportation, health and many more.
Greater customer satisfaction
IoT connections have the potential to identify service needs before customers tell you about them, providing insight into customer behaviour.
Increased sustainability
Real-time IoT data can minimise energy requirements by increasing process efficiencies and optimising energy use.
