Internet of Things (IoT) Solutions for Businesses
More than just a buzzword, IoT is a complex series of technologies that work together to collect and use the information all around us. The devices and sensors that gather this information are just the tip of the iceberg; it’s equally important to have a strategy for using the data to make better business decisions, help your team be more effective, and delight your customers or end users in unexpected ways.
Smart technology, done smarter.
As more connected devices are introduced into the business environment, companies have more opportunities to improve performance, monetize smart solutions, and create exceptional customer experiences.
When we work with an IoT client, we always begin with the details of their infrastructure and their business strategy so that the end result is secure, fully supported, and successful.
They were very attentive to our needs throughout the entire process. Our IntegraONE sales rep was there throughout the entire process, not just for the sales portion. Everything from the sales perspective, project management, and engineering were great. If I were to highlight anything as exceptional though, it would be the engineering services. And really, to me, that’s what it’s all about.
Elements of an IoT Solution
Whether you’re trying to differentiate yourself in your industry, increase operational efficiency, or improve perception of your business, the sky’s the limit when designing your IoT solution.
The key is to harness IoT in a way that has tangible benefits for your team, your organization, and your customers. Every IoT-enablement solution we build, from network infrastructure to security and application development, is completely customized to fit your specific environment.
Connected Devices
As more IoT-enabled technology floods the market, the range of connected devices, their applications, and the data they’re collecting is seemingly infinite.
That variety means that each project involves finding the right software to support the system and redistribute data, identifying the unique security vulnerabilities, and fortifying your network and infrastructure to support it all.
IoT devices can include:
- Fire alarms
- Door locks
- HVAC systems
- Security systems
- Medical sensors
- Industrial sensors
IoT Infrastructure
As we map out your ideal IoT solution, it’s essential to think ahead about the infrastructure you’ll need to support it. Your network, data storage, security framework, and capacity for connected devices all impact how successful your solutions will be.
IoT will only get more pervasive, and it’s critical to prepare for the influx of revenue opportunities, operational improvements, and, yes, vulnerabilities that can come along with innovation.
Together, we’ll look at your:
- Network infrastructure
- Data storage
- Security framework
- Device capacity
Software
IoT isn’t just about connected devices. The usefulness of sensors and other hardware is in combining them with the right software, enabled by the right infrastructure and security.
IoT software gathers, monitors, manages, and processes the data coming in from your devices, making it easy to use and analyze. That may involve redistributing data to other systems, such as when a temperature sensor indicates that the HVAC system needs to be turned on. Sometimes it involves coordinating devices so they can talk to each other.
However you need to utilize incoming data, we can work with you to find the ideal software to manage it.
Data Analysis
As important as devices and infrastructure are, you must be able to interpret the incoming data and use it to make meaningful business decisions in order to see the return on your IoT investment.
As veterans in this industry, we know how to navigate these factors and make IoT effective, affordable, and manageable for small and medium businesses as well as enterprises.
Together, we’ll work through questions like:
- What visibility can IoT give me into processes and performance that I don’t currently have?
- How should the data be monitored and displayed so I can act on it decisively?
- What would my ideal dashboard look like?
