WebNMS is the Internet of Things (IoT) software platform division of Zoho Corporation. With over 20 years of leadership in telecom network management, WebNMS has now transformed itself into the IoT division of Zoho. "Enterprises today need to adopt technologies that derive value out of their operations and boost performance to sustain competition. Data from an enterprise is the largest value derived that can enhance productivity, tweak up margins and impact the longevity of a business," Prabhu Ramachandran, Director, WebNMS, told Khaleej Times.
The Symphony IoT platform with its enterprise architecture, forms the intersection of gathered data and leveraged results. Weaving smartness into day-to-day operations, it infuses efficiency into connected businesses. Designed to address energy, remote security and moving asset concerns, Symphony caters to a broad spectrum of verticals spanning from heavy industries like oil and gas to smart city applications like connected transport, advanced BMS, upgraded security solutions, etc.
"Symphony IoT from WebNMS is a well-engineered software platform with capabilities that address the need of enterprises across verticals. The architecture is well-researched, tried and tested to establish seamless integration with legacy systems as well as current technology and transform data into business intelligence," Ramachandran added.
The platform enables shorter time to develop applications, quick time to market and is highly cost-efficient in terms of adoption and implementation. Its architecture facilitates seamless data acquisition, transfer and analytics. A favourite among IoT solution providers and system integrators (SIs) owing to its superior build, the platform is in sync with existing legacy devices as well as modern systems. It is cost-effective and user-friendly too.
"Symphony IoT Platform is crafted to meet enterprise and smart city requirements. Energy, remote security and asset tracking are its core areas of expertise. Apart from the customisable Symphony platform, WebNMS has a wide portfolio of ready-to-deploy IoT solutions covering the major arenas," the Director noted.
City-related apps like smart and interconnected transport, centralised building safety, smart water and energy metering, centralised security surveillance, etc. are some of the solutions that could be implemented using Symphony IoT platform. Enterprises in the Middle East have already started to benefit from IoT deployment, with improved returns.
Looking forward, WebNMS strives to become a leading IoT platform player and empower the IoT ecosystem with faster, efficient and cost-effective IoT deployments.
