Monnit Corporation announced that CRN has named the wireless sensors company to its 2016 Internet of Things 50 list, which recognizes organizations whose innovative offerings are helping connect objects, computing devices, infrastructure, data storage and data analytics to transform and improve the way we work and live.
Monnit was the only Utah-based company to be recognized in the “20 Coolest IoT Hardware Vendors” category, which consists of many Monnit partners and other technology leaders such as Cisco, Dell, Intel and Samsung.
“We are honored to be named in this elite group for the second year in a row,” said Brad Walters, CEO, Monnit. “It’s a strong confirmation for the Monnit team – and our clients worldwide – that we are providing relevant solutions that are truly making a difference in today’s business world. Resellers in every market that are interested in getting into IoT have a premier partner in Monnit.”
CRN, a brand of The Channel Company, recognized Monnit for its breadth of IoT wireless sensors, gateways and control devices. Monnit currently provides more than 50 unique sensor types for commercial and industrial applications as part of a complete, remote monitoring solution, which features online monitoring software and real-time alerts via SMS text, email or phone call when a user-defined condition is detected.
The magazine also recognized Monnit for its business partner program, which allows OEMs, systems integrators, independent software vendors and resellers to sell Monnit-branded products or private-brand the solutions as their own.
“The emerging Internet of Things market holds enormous creative potential, with the capacity to touch and streamline nearly every aspect of our daily lives,” said Robert Faletra, CEO of The Channel Company. “CRN’s Internet of Things 50 list celebrates vendors who are exploring this potential with utmost energy and ingenuity. On the very cutting edge of innovation, their offerings are poised to transform the way we live and work with an unprecedented level of interconnectivity. We congratulate each of these vendors on the vision and creativity that has earned them a spot on our 2016 list.”
