A New IoT Software Solution from 1NCE Will Increase Accessibility and Improve Time-to-market

1NCE | January 09, 2023 | Read time : 02:02 min

1NCE
1NCE, a global IoT (Internet of Things) connectivity and software company, has launched its 1NCE OS software at the Consumer Electronics Show. The software is designed to be easily integrated into IoT projects of any scale and aims to accelerate time-to-market for these projects by several months. The launch of 1NCE OS at CES has created a lot of buzz in the IoT industry, and the product is expected to revolutionize the way IoT projects are developed.

The software includes features such as device authentication, an IoT integrator, a device inspector, a device locator, and an energy saver. These features combined will make it easier for developers to add robust security and scalability to their IoT projects.

“1NCE flips the script for customers – we don’t monetize their data for a few extra dollars because our customers’ data is theirs and theirs alone. 1NCE’s move into software allows us to boost our customers’ ideas not just when they need connectivity, but from the outset of their projects and all the way through a device’s lifecycle. IoT connectivity and software for life for a single fee, and that’s it.”

Ivo Rook, Chief Operating Officer at 1NCE (Source: Businesswire)
The 1NCE OS software is available for free to 1NCE customers as part of the company's Lifetime Flat Service, which offers a single flat rate for IoT connectivity and software for life. The service aims to be transparent about using customer data to create tools rather than monetizing it to sell additional services. By using the 1NCE OS, customers are able to take advantage of a wide range of security and scalability options for their IoT projects without any extra costs or hidden fees.
