## What is IoT software? 

Researched by: [Capterra](https://www.capterra.com/resources/author/capterra/)

Updated on August 5, 2026

[Internet of Things (IoT) software](https://www.capterra.com/iot-software/) helps with the connectivity and management of internet-connected devices, also known as ‘smart devices.’ These include devices ranging from smart home appliances and health monitoring systems to manufacturing equipment and surveillance robots. 

An IoT platform typically assists in the following operations:

-   development of IoT applications that are connected to a smart device
    
-   collection, management, and analytics of user and network data to identify IoT device usage patterns and network connection as well as its stability
    
-   device management by analyzing the collected data and performing regular software and hardware updates

## Benefits of IoT software

-   **Reduces operational costs**: An IoT application helps businesses gather real-time information about devices connected to it. This allows businesses to proactively keep track of the devices’ status and schedule necessary maintenance before production is hampered. For example, smart building systems help track and control heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. This allows the backend staff to take advantage of lower time-of-use costs, which, in turn, helps them reduce operational costs.
    
-   **Improves business productivity**: An IoT platform is capable of automating tasks that businesses otherwise have to do manually. Data collection, real-time system monitoring, and generating IoT data analytics are some of the tasks that can be automated using this tool. This helps businesses create streamlined workflows, save manual efforts, and improve overall business productivity.
    
-   **Helps identify business opportunities**: The IoT data analytics collected by the software provides businesses with actionable data that they can use to identify new opportunities. These data insights can be used to understand what the customers are seeking and create new business models accordingly. For instance, insurance businesses can optimize insurance rates by tracking speed and driving habits, or retailers can measure in-store foot traffic to understand the busiest hours of the day.
    
-   **Enhances customer experience**: Since IoT software collects, monitors, and analyzes customer data, businesses can use these analytics to predict trends in customer behavior. This prediction allows businesses to personalize and enhance customer experience. For example, by tracking a customer's location, a retail store can offer personalized discount coupons to them based on their proximity to the store. 

* * *

## Typical features of IoT software

-   **Connectivity management**: Uses cellular connectivity service to form a link between the device and IoT software for delivery of reliable data.
    
-   **Device management**: Helps configure, maintain, monitor, and diagnose connected devices to keep them connected, updated, and secure at all times.
    
-   **Big data analytics**: Analyzes gathered big data to extract actionable insights, identify trends, and predict future outcomes.
    
-   **Data management**: Provides data storage and auditing functions to manage and analyze data.
    
-   **Visual analytics**: Converts the data insights into visuals such as charts and graphs for easier understanding of the users.
    

* * *

## Cost of IoT software

Most products in the market are priced on a per-user, per-month basis and can be divided into three pricing tiers based on their starting price.

**Price ranges\*:**

-   $5 - $19
    
-   $20 - $49
    
-   $50+
    

_\*The pricing included is for the entry-level/lowest-priced offerings found on vendor websites as of September 29, 2022. These ranges correspond to the 25th, 75th, and 100th percentiles of pricing information gathered from vendor websites of sample products._

The above list includes pricing for the base plans of most products. An enterprise or premium product that is priced higher may include additional features such as configuration management, data import/export, and prototype creation.

* * *

## Considerations when purchasing IoT software

-   **Check IoT connectivity**: If your business is spread across multiple locations, check whether the IoT software platforms you’re considering supports cellular connectivity across all those locations. This will ensure that you are able to connect with all your devices and are collecting and analyzing data from all operational business locations.
    
-   **Analyze data security options**: Before investing in an IoT solution, thoroughly understand the data security and privacy measures of the tool. Does it have up-to-date security certifications? Do the offered security measures comply with privacy laws? Understanding these data safety features of an IoT system will ensure that your business and customer data is in safe hands.
    
-   **Examine data management functionalities**: Understand how you want to manage the data that the IoT platform collects. Do you want to store data on the cloud provided by IoT apps, or do you want to export it to your third-party cloud storage platform? Do you want to rely on the analytics features of the IoT solution, or do you want to perform data analysis via your own analytics platform? Examining such needs will help you understand the type of data management functionalities you need.
