By Steven Baker, VP, Product Management Connectivity Solutions, KORE

There’s nothing like the feeling of your first successful IoT project. Organizations are excited by the new capabilities, process improvements, and opportunities delivered by their initial IoT deployments. The possibilities are endless. However, complexity increases greatly as organizations broaden the scope and scale of their IoT deployments. Managing numerous devices across a variety of wireless carriers and connectivity technologies can become a daunting task. The good news is that a single IoT connectivity management system can solve many of these challenges by efficiently monitoring all devices across the enterprise, adjusting rate plans, and managing connections across multiple carriers around the world.

Here are the top five critical factors to consider when selecting a connectivity management platform:

1. Is It User-Friendly?

An IoT connectivity platform should reduce complexity, not increase it. The right connectivity hub makes it easy to optimize your IoT device connections and automate daily connectivity processes so that your team can continue to innovate and grow your business. Look for a clean user-friendly design that makes IoT connectivity monitoring and management a breeze. Make sure your team attends vendor demos and has the ability to personally test the features and functions to ensure they match your needs.
