What problem did they face?

Challenges

They had already spent almost six months developing basic features.
They realized they would still need to add many more features in the coming months.
Continuing to develop everything themselves would take much more time and require a lot of resources.
They needed a solution that was reliable, could grow with their business, and could quickly meet new IoT needs without losing quality.

Key results

They immediately got access to a complete platform that already included all the features they had built.
They also gained many extra features they had planned for the future, saving them a lot of development time.
They reduced the time needed to bring their solutions to the market, allowing them to focus more on serving clients and creating new ideas.
They now have a stable, reliable platform with strong technical support and regular updates to keep improving.

How ThingsBoard powers Nettra?

Scales with confidence

Recognizing the strategic advantage, Nettra made the decision to adopt ThingsBoard as the backbone of their IoT platform. The migration was seamless due to ThingsBoard's comprehensive feature set, which not only met but exceeded Nettra’s initial development efforts and future plans. Thanks to ThingsBoard, Nettra successfully accelerated their platform development, enhanced reliability for their customers, and positioned themselves as a competitive leader in the IoT space.

"We had been working on the development of our own software platform for almost 6 months when we came across Thingsboard. Not only Thingsboard had all the functionalities we had already developed, but also included many more that were on our pipeline for the coming months. Switching to Thingsboard was a no-brainer.
The platform has proven to be very reliable, with great support and constant evolution. Definitely the right choice for our company."

How ThingsBoard helps smart energy improve operations?

One platform for all energy devices

ThingsBoard makes it much easier for smart energy companies to manage their operations. Instead of juggling different systems for different types of devices, companies can connect everything into one platform. ThingsBoard supports all the major communication protocols - like MQTT, CoAP, HTTP, LwM2M, SNMP, Modbus, and OPC-UA - which means it can easily work with a wide range of energy devices without any extra hassle.

Real-time insights with zero effort

With ThingsBoard, companies can collect real-time data from their devices and display it on customizable dashboards. This makes it easy to monitor energy usage, device status, and system performance at any time. The platform includes a powerful Rule Engine that can automatically detect problems, send alarms, and trigger actions without human intervention.

Reliable offline with Edge and OTA

For locations where internet access is limited, ThingsBoard offers edge computing. This means data can be processed locally, improving reliability and reducing delays. Over-the-air (OTA) updates allow companies to remotely update device software and settings, saving time and reducing maintenance costs.

Organized assets and built-in security

Companies can also organise their devices, sites, and customers clearly with asset hierarchies and groupings. Strong security features – like role-based access control, encrypted data transfer, and detailed audit logs – help protect sensitive information and meet regulatory requirements.

Analytics that drive efficiency

On top of that, ThingsBoard provides powerful data analytics tools, allowing companies to store historical data, track performance trends, and generate reports. This helps identify ways to improve efficiency, detect issues early, and make better decisions based on real data.
