AWS IoT Core  connects AWS and Amazon services like AWS Lambda, Amazon Kinesis, Amazon S3, Amazon SageMaker, Amazon DynamoDB, Amazon CloudWatch, AWS CloudTrail, Amazon QuickSight, and Alexa Voice Service to build IoT applications that gather, process, analyze and act on data generated by connected devices, without having to manage any infrastructure. The AWS IoT Device and Mobile SDKs include open-source libraries, developer guides with samples, and porting guides so that users can build innovative IoT products or solutions on your choice of hardware platforms.

The Cisco Room Series is a video conferencing solution that wakes up when users walk into a meeting room where it is installed and provides theater-quality voice and video, as well as content sharing from personal devices. For small to medium rooms with 6-8 people, there's Cisco Room 55, and for larger rooms of 7-14 people there's Cisco Room Kit (camera and codec in one device) and Cisco Kit Plus (separate codec plus and quad camera). Any of these systems can be run in the cloud or on-premises.

Azure IoT Edge is a fully managed service built on Azure IoT Hub. Users can deploy cloud workloads—artificial intelligence, Azure and third-party services, or business logic—to run on Internet of Things (IoT) edge devices via standard containers. The vendor states that by moving certain workloads to the edge of the network, devices spend less time communicating with the cloud, react more quickly to local changes, and operate reliably even in extended offline periods.

I use XiO to manage 145 devices that we have on our network around the world. I manage our AM-200, AM-300, AM-3200, AM-3200-WF, and Mercury devices. XiO allows me to see what devices are off-line so I can troubleshoot for issues before the customer discovers a problem. I can manage different group settings by their locations. And I can schedule recurring nightly reboots and firmware updates when it is convenient for me. 

Product Usage

I use XiO to manage 145 devices that we have on our network around the world. I manage our AM-200, AM-300, AM-3200, AM-3200-WF, and Mercury devices. XiO allows me to see what devices are off-line so I can troubleshoot for issues before the customer discovers a problem. I can manage different group settings by their locations. And I can schedule recurring nightly reboots and firmware updates when it is convenient for me.

Pros and Cons

Scheduled re-boots and updates
I like the way the hierarchy can be set up
individually customizable group settings within the hierarchy
I like the capability of setting up background images for brand promotion or employee information

Things done well

I would like the option to choose IP addresses as one of the viewable columns when looking at/sorting through all your available devices.
It would be nice to be able to link the IP address listed directly to their devices.
Sometime trying to reboot a device in XiO does not work for me and I need to go directly to the device's admin page.

Things done poorly

XiO is definitely well suited for applications like ours where we have a large number of devices to manage. I like being able to see all my devices and locations in one place. It is very helpful to see if any devices are offline each morning and be able to troubleshoot before any customers realize there is a problem.

Feature Ratings

being able to manage all my devices remotely saves us time/money
XiO reduces the need to have someone on-site/in person to manage my devices
