Instron Technologies: Empowering Work forces with Cutting-Edge IoT Product

CIO Vendor Over the past few years, the Indian market is witnessing a rise in the adoption of IIoT owing to basic infrastructure developments like availability of basic automation data connectivity and ease of obtaining domain ID and global static IPs thereby effectively reducing the cost of ownership of IIoT solutions. With the promise of monitoring and controlling business operations from a remote location, improving operational efficiencies, integrating and adapting business models, enhancing employee productivity and saving time and money, businesses are increasingly implementing IIoT solutions. This growth comes from either organizations that are setting this adoption trend or customers implementing IIoT solutions due to peer competition who are basically known as trend followers. This influx of customers indicates the need for a reputed solution provider with a portfolio of proven solutions that possess deep domain expertise and the right skill set.

Perfectly poised to meet the needs of every customer across manufacturing and process industries is Pune headquartered Instron Technologies with its innovative and robust IoT product PlantOn.
