Finding the right IoT solution for your business

If you’re looking to drive transformation with your connected devices, you need to have a plan on how you’re going to connect them and handle the data that you derive from them as well. The first step is determining whether you need a PaaS or SaaS solution. If you have the expertise and want to retain control, then PaaS is probably your best choice. If you’d prefer to have less control and might lack the in-house cloud solution experience, perhaps a SaaS solution is best.
