Charting the evolution of IoT since the inaugural Vodafone IoT Barometer in 2013

Adoption now stands at 29%, with IoT technologies and devices sitting at the heart of business transformation. We’re seeing IoT integrated with line-of-business CRM and ERP systems to streamline workflows and improve customer experience. It’s supporting new levels of decision-making through integrations with data analytics applications, and adding value across the business in many different ways.
