65% of our clients build 2+ solution with us
A serious IoT solution is never just devices and dashboards. It’s an ecosystem of 30-plus moving parts - middleware, integrations, workflows, server-side and application-level services. All of this must be scaled and upgraded together.
Most projects stall at that integration layer, while business logic waits. We eliminate that bottleneck by placing ThingsBoard at the core of the solution.
Its microservice architecture already provides us with all the needed components, and they are already integrated, so we can focus on business logic and reuse functions instead of re-inventing them.
The outcome for our clients is simple - solution delivery is about 8x faster and 11x cheaper than a traditional greenfield development.
Fast delivery it's not about time management, it's about expertise, knowledge, and a ready-to-develop core platform

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 01. Technical Workshop |
1-3 sessions A working session with our solution architects and your team. We map your business objectives to concrete technical requirements and define the functional scope of the solution. |
|||||||
| 02. Scope & Proposal |
5 days Based on the workshop, we prepare a technical proposal. It includes the detailed system architecture, project scope, a fixed-cost breakdown, and an implementation plan with clear deliverables for each phase. |
|||||||
| 03. Project Kick-off |
2 days Once the proposal is approved, we sign the contract and provision the dedicated project environment (development, staging, production). The assigned engineering team begins work. |
|||||||
| 04. Iterative Development |
Scope-dependent (from 1 week) The solution is built in agile sprints (typically 2 weeks). Each sprint concludes with a demo of the new functionality for your team to review and provide direct feedback, ensuring the project stays aligned with the goals. |
|||||||
| 05. Iterative Testing & Validation |
Scope-dependent (from 2 weeks) The solution undergoes a complete testing cycle, including functional, integration, and performance testing. We then proceed to User Acceptance Testing (UAT) with your team to formally validate that all requirements have been met. |
|||||||
| 06. Deployment |
2 days Following successful validation, we deploy the solution to the production environment. The go-live process follows a pre-agreed plan designed to ensure a smooth cutover. |

Request expert supportIoT development services cover the design, development, deployment, and maintenance of IoT solutions. They include the creation of software ecosystems that allow you to manage communication between devices, collect data, map ingested data to digital twin, visualise it, and work as one integrated system. Think of smart electricity, water, heat meters, wearable health monitors, or asset tracking devices that provide critical information about asset health, allow decision makers to effectively strategies and improve the efficiency of key operational aspects. IoT development services bring these innovations to life.

- Data Ingestion and Processing*: Collects real-time telemetry and processes it for storage, analytics, and triggering events.
- Digital Twin and Modeling*: Represents physical assets and their relationships through a scalable, structured data model.
- Analytics and KPIs*: Calculates key metrics such as energy usage, costs, or emissions across different system levels.
- Dashboards and Visualization*: Provides real-time dashboards and drill-down interfaces for monitoring and control.
- Alerts and Notifications*: Automatically triggers alerts based on predefined conditions and notifies users via multiple channels.
- User Roles and Access Control*: Manages user permissions to ensure secure, role-based access to data and actions.
- Security and Scalability*: Ensures encrypted data transfer, secure authentication, and high availability across large-scale deployments.
Almost every industry can benefit from the IoT, including manufacturing, healthcare, retail, logistics, agriculture, energy, automotive, smart cities, education, and construction. IoT helps to improve efficiency, safety, productivity and provides companies with critical data tailored to their unique needs of each sector.
The main challenges of the IoT include ensuring seamless connectivity of all devices, data security and privacy, managing large amounts of information, visualising and analysing the data, ensuring that different devices work together and meeting the high requirements of industry standards.
No, you don't need to have hardware to start developing, you can add it in the next phases of the development process, and use simulated data to start with. But for a full product, IoT solutions usually require specialised hardware, such as sensors and gateways for data collection and transmission. The specific hardware depends on the goals of your project, such as temperature monitoring, location tracking, or remote equipment management.
An IoT platform is software that helps you easily manage connected devices, collect data, and visualise it in a clear and easy way. If you plan to effectively manage multiple devices and data streams, you'll definitely need an IoT platform, and we recommend using an IoT platform like ThingsBoard.
Development time is highly dependent on many factors, such as your specific needs, hardware availability, required integrations; simple projects can take weeks, while more complex ones can take several months.
Yes, we offer ongoing support, including problem analysis, problem resolution, upgrades, scaling services, and continuous enhancements to ensure your IoT system is running smoothly and meeting your ever-changing needs.
Yes, existing IoT solutions can be easily integrated with ThingsBoard. We help with seamless integration, ensuring that your current setup receives enhanced functionality and improved management capabilities.
Costs depend on the complexity of the project, hardware requirements, custom software development needs, integration with existing systems, and ongoing support needs. Each of these elements can have a significant impact on the total investment in your IoT project.
Taking into account industry standards and regulations (HIPAA, GDPR, etc.). Regular audit of infrastructure and application security. Development of a comprehensive security strategy (encryption, multi-level authentication, access control).
We keep the IoT secure with strong encryption, multiple levels of authentication, and strict access controls. We also regularly audit our systems and comply with regulations such as GDPR and HIPAA to ensure your data is fully protected.
