The Communications Service Provider IoT Peer Benchmarking Report 2023 is based on detailed analysis of the strategies of the leading 23 global providers of cellular connectivity for the Internet of Things (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.
The Communications Service Providers profiled consist of: 1NCE, AT&T, BICS, Deutsche Telekom IoT, Emnify, Eseye, KORE, KPN, NTT, Ooredoo, Orange, Sierra Wireless, Singtel, Soracom, T-Mobile US, Tele2, Telefónica, Telenor, Telia, Telit, Verizon, Vodafone and Wireless Logic.
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.
The 118 page report comprises an executive summary, detailed analysis of overall trends in the ‘Key Trends for Communications Service Provider in IoT’ section, analysis of which are the leading vendors and why in the ‘Who are the leading vendors?’ section, and detailed profiles for each of the 23 providers can be found in Section 5.
