What is IoT?
IoT stands for Internet of Things. The abbreviation M2M is also widely used, which derives from the words Machine To Machine. In practice, IoT or M2M technologies connect physical devices to the network and transport data between these devices. IoT makes remote monitoring, remote device management, and smart devices possible.
In the business world, IoT solutions or M2M solutions are used to monitor important processes, locate equipment and optimize business.

Why choose a customized M2M or IoT solution?
In some cases, a customized IoT solution serves the company's needs better than an available off-the-shelf solution.
A custom solution is flexible
Ready-made technology solutions are designed to serve a wide range of companies, but they may not meet the needs of all organizations. When you choose a customized solution, we can tailor the technology, features and functions to perfectly fit your business processes and goals. You have the flexibility to choose the components and features that are essential to your operation.
A custom solution is scalable
As your business grows and evolves, the requirements may change. The customized M2M solution enables scalability as features can be added or modified as needed through further development.
We design solutions with future requirements in mind, ensuring compatibility with emerging technologies and industry developments.
A custom solution can be integrated into existing systems
Your company probably has its own established IT infrastructure and systems. An out-of-the-box IoT solution may not integrate seamlessly into existing processes, leading to inefficiencies and disruptions. We design custom IoT solutions to integrate smoothly with your existing software, systems, and processes. This maximizes efficiency and minimizes disruption.
By choosing a customized IoT solution
you can unleash the full potential of the Industrial Internet!
Wireless IoT solutions
We specialize in wireless IoT solutions due to their flexibility.
Many internet-connected sensors still need to be plugged in to a power outlet even if the data is transmitted wirelessly. A fully wireless sensor has significant advantages over a wired one. A battery-powered device can be installed in a wider variety of locations, and also moved if necessary. Fully-wireless IoT sensors also make tracking moving objects a lot easier.
With wireless devices we can bring tracking almost anywhere. There is no need to install new electrical wiring in inconvenient places or remodel buildings.
For example, we developed an outdoor parcel locker that can be placed in an environment where power or WiFi is not available. The power source for an entire package locker is just a few batteries weighing a few kilograms each, which are replaced once a year.

Secure IoT platform and service
In today's world, information security is increasing important. Our services are designed to be secure from start to finish.
What's included in an IoT development project?
Our IoT development services include everything that's needed along the way, from idea to solution. We deliver each solution primarily using our own services and IoT platform.
- Requirements planning for sensors and network equipment
- Device testing and commissioning
- Device delivery
- Data collection and transfer
- Data storage and archiving
- Data analysis, visualization and customized reporting
- End-user application development (smartphone IoT app or web IoT app)
- Application testing
- Integrations with business systems
We integrate final monitoring and reporting as needed into your existing business applications, project management tools and reporting systems. We also offer reporting directly from our own reporting tool. The solution can be used without needing to set up any integrations.
Stages of an IoT development project
With us, starting an IoT project is easy and straightforward. Initially, we define and brainstorm together what is needed to solve your company's problem. We then design a solution according to your needs.
We will present the first prototype at an early stage so that we can test and verify the functionality of the selected solution as quickly as possible. After design and testing, we can continue our cooperation with further development of the software and service.
