In IoT, data and dashboards mean nothing if they don’t create real business value. At ThingsBoard, our Development Unit makes sure your solution does exactly that.
We don’t just build features — we help you turn ideas into results. With our platform and experts, your technical goals are covered, so you can stay focused on your business impact. From optimizing supply chains to launching smart services, we ensure the tech drives results that matter — to your customers and your bottom line.
Let’s turn your IoT vision into reality with our in-house experts.
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.

End-to-end rental management solution with IoT, multi-channel alerts, and branded interface
We have reached out to ThingsBoard to build a rental operations dashboard for managing rental stations that offer our products. Additionally, we wanted to provide those stations with a ready-made interface for fleet and contract management.
The solution needed to support rental contracts, performance reporting for rental centers, fleet management, geofencing, internal incident reporting, and multi-channel notifications (SMS, email, WhatsApp), along with real-time IoT connectivity to our products via MQTT.
Given time constraints, we chose to outsource the development so our internal team could focus on other priorities. Working with the ThingsBoard team proved to be efficient, with just the right level of collaboration needed to deliver an optimal outcome.
The final product met our expectations, featuring a user interface aligned with our brand’s design language and enabling rental centers to manage operations easily, safely, and in a centralized way.

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.
