Enterprise IoT application enablement platform that makes it easy to build solutions that produce real-time results: Losant

Cloud computing allows companies to store and manage data over cloud platforms, providing scalability in the delivery of applications and software as a service. Cloud computing also allows data transfer and storage through the internet or with a direct link that enables uninterrupted data transfer between devices, applications, and cloud. IoT is just not restricted to functions of systems connectivity, data gathering, storage, and analytics alone. It helps in modernizing the operations by connecting the legacy and smart devices, machines to the internet, and reducing the barriers between IT and OT teams with a unified view of the systems and data. With cloud computing, organizations do not have to deploy extensive hardware, configure and manage networks & infrastructure in IoT deployments.

Globally there are various companies specializing in IoT cloud platform, but Losant stands out from the rest. Losant is an easy-to-use and powerful enterprise IoT application enablement platform designed to help you quickly and securely build complex real-time connected solutions. Losant uses open communication standards to provide connectivity from one to millions of devices. Losant provides powerful data collection, aggregation, and visualization features to provide you with new data insights. Losant is trusted by your development team and capable of driving business results. Start independently or if you want help to define and build your unique product, Losant’s experienced solution engineers are ready to work with you. A low-risk proof of concept is the best way to introduce IoT to any organization. The purpose of a PoC is to experiment with a solution in your environment, collect data, and evaluate performance from a set timeline on a set budget. A PoC with clear goals defined by your team will help to avoid scope creep and help you to determine whether the technology is operating, capturing data, and automating actions in its intended design.

Proof of concept

Collectively define goals, inputs, metrics, scope, risks, success criteria and schedule. Create execution plan, acquire hardware, develop software, configure Losant, and implement concept. Review results, compare outcomes to success criteria, develop a pilot plan or production plan and align on how to move forward. Losant’s in-house Solutions Team is ready to work directly with your organization to help define success, create a plan, build a solution and evaluate results according to your criteria. The Losant Enterprise IoT Platform is an application enablement platform which allows enterprises to effectively build applications that securely scale to millions of devices. With real-time stream processing and batch processing capabilities, users can create dynamic experiences and perform complex analytics. All of Losant’s components, from Edge Compute to End-User Experiences, work seamlessly together to transform data into tailored IoT solutions.

Asset Tracking

Stakeholders and customers expect access to real-time information. Locations tracking with mobile apps or simple devices are no longer enough to compete. The Losant IoT platform provides the foundation for remote asset management, mapping, reporting, and Machine-to-Machine (M2M) data integration allowing you to deliver unique products to market for competitive advantage. Manage asset inventory conditions while in storage, in use or in transit to eliminate operational downtime with Losant’s mapping tools and data graphs. Losant’s in-house solutions team is ready to work directly with your organization to help define success, create a plan, build a solution, and evaluate results according to your criteria.

Contact tracing with IoT & Losant

The CDC has identified contact tracing as a key strategy for preventing the further spread of COVID-19. Take control of contact tracing in your facility. Proactively log close contact using small physical tags. Safely notify all associates who have been in contact with an infected person. Eliminate invasive privacy practices and concerns by utilizing this solution on enterprise property only. Using contact tracing in your enterprise environment demonstrates a willingness to protect your environment. Mobile contact tracing apps are designed for the public, but to work effectively, every individual must have a Bluetooth-enabled phone and the same mobile application. Using Losant for your facility or campus enables one source of truth for contact interactions and a historical record of data to quickly notify your associates. Enterprises can distribute a wearable device, or tag, and no download or mobile phone is required. An enterprise will maintain the log of tag assignments.

Meet the leaders behind the success of Losant

Michael Kuehl, Brandon Cannaday, and Charlie are the key founders of Losant. In 2015, after Cannaday and Key successfully sold Modulus, a platform-as-a-service application for Node.js developers, the two began to get requests for a platform that could help with IoT solutions. Kuehl, the pair’s former RHIT classmate, joined the team to help build Losant, an enterprise IoT application enablement platform.
