The Communications Service Provider IoT Peer Benchmarking Report is Transforma Insights annual assessment of the capabilities and strategies of the leading Mobile Network Operators and MVNOs in IoT. Our selection was based on three criteria: scale, ability to deliver global services, and innovation in the service offering. Our aim with this report is to highlight best practice and innovation in the provision of cellular-based IoT connectivity.
This year the report features 25 CSPs: 1NCE, AT&T, BICS, Deutsche Telekom IoT, Emnify, Eseye, floLIVE, KORE, KPN, NTT/Transatel, Ooredoo, Pelion, Semtech/Sierra Wireless, Singtel, Soracom, T-Mobile US, Tele2, Telefonica, Telenor, Telia, Telit Cinterion, Velos IoT, Verizon, Vodafone and Wireless Logic, with detailed profiles of their capabilities and strategies.
Our research has focused on understanding, for each of the CSPs, their performance metrics, organisational structure, middleware (e.g. platforms), core network infrastructure, network architecture, cloud integration, network technologies, approaches to multi-country connectivity, hardware strategy, target verticals, key customer wins, availability of end-to-end solutions, application development, professional services, and channels and sales strategies, amongst other things.
Based on this analysis we are able to identify the key trends that are shaping the IoT connectivity landscape and the CSPs best able to support enterprises in their IoT deployments.
This 147-page report comprises an executive summary, detailed analysis of overall trends in the ‘Key Trends for Communications Service Providers in IoT’ section, analysis of which are the leading vendors and why in the ‘How do we rate the leading vendors?’ section, and detailed description of the capabilities and strategies of each of the 25 providers can be found in the 'Profiles' section.
