Entry Barriers in Internet of Things (IoT)

Many businesses see the Internet of Things (IoT) as a great opportunity for growth. IoT can boost efficiency, cut costs, and give you a competitive edge.

However, getting started can be surprisingly challenging. While affordable devices are available (from companies like Samsung SmartThings, Apple HomeKit, Google Home, Xiaomi Mijia, and Sonoff), the reality is a high barrier to entry for many.

Why Is the Entry Barrier Still High?

Even with easy-to-use devices, many businesses struggle to define their automation goals. Without a clear understanding of the problem, finding and implementing the right IoT solution is nearly impossible. IoT is about solving real business problems which often require both deep business knowledge and technical expertise.

This isn't just about simple things like smart home lighting. Complex business applications pose significant challenges. Businesses face unique operational needs requiring customized IoT solutions, demanding both technical skills and a solid understanding of their specific business context.

Many individuals and businesses find IoT confusing. Key difficulties include:

Lack of Clarity:
Many potential users are unfamiliar with the capabilities of IoT and how it could address their specific needs.
Complexity of Setup:
Even with user-friendly devices, configuring and integrating IoT systems often requires technical skills, including networking, scripting, and system integration.
Defining the Right Solution:
Identifying the right automation tasks and matching them with appropriate IoT devices and platforms is a challenge for non-experts.
