E.E: What can you tell us about market trends?
Able Device: At a high level, there are three trends that fuels the market and creates the need for SIMbae:
Faster internet. Growing use of 5G and Wi-Fi 6 pairs superfast network speeds, low latency, and faster download speeds with better IoT, and multi-user support.
More digital. Post pandemic, companies made digital engagement the norm for customers and employees thus more are embracing new technologies requiring the best connection.
Even more data. With more access, more data is exchanged amongst humans, devices, and machines. It also means we expect more, are less patient, and expect to get what we want instantly.
A recent Beecham survey on why 74% of IoT projects fail indicated that there are more challenges with enterprise IoT projects than previously understood. Unclear objectives/goals, security and scalability, organizational culture and skills are just a few of the core issues. It highlighted complexity of the connectivity part of the solution is not always understood, All respondents identified connectivity – coverage, reliability, bandwidth, latency – as posing significant technical challenges and ironically, it is the one root cause identified in the research that is typically outside the control of enterprises.
Customers accustomed to setting up wireless networks are often inclined to believe it is a simple matter of plug and play, not understanding that wireless devices were not designed with IoT in mind.
Smart decisions and automated actions at the edge are made possible by SIMbae.
