IoT: Implement Smart Solutions That Give You the Edge

The smart world of Internet of Things (IoT) is already showing the significant potential to impact how we work and how we live. Furthermore, businesses are increasingly recognizing this, but often lack the foresight, technical expertise and infrastructure to fully realize the benefits and values

At FCX, we use our many years of experience. knowledge and partnership expertise to evaluate IoT opportunities for our clients.

Working with the best global suppliers and providers in the industry, we can help you assess and implement smart solutions that will give you the edge you need over competition. Before anything is implemented however, we discuss strategy for smart connectivity across manufacturing, operations, products and services so the solution can stay relevant for a multitude of years. 

Intelligent hardware

Intelligent hardware can include devices such as smart sensors, automated machines, and virtual assistants, which are all designed to monitor and collect data, analyze patterns, and provide insights for businesses.
The term refers to any hardware or devices that integrate advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, and data analytics to improve business operations and decision-making processes. Intelligent hardware can be used in various industries and functions, such as supply chain management, customer service, and marketing, to increase efficiency, reduce costs, and deliver better results.

For example, in manufacturing, intelligent hardware can be used to automate production processes, minimize errors, and optimize inventory management. In customer service, virtual assistants can use natural language processing and machine learning to handle customer inquiries and provide personalized support.

By leveraging intelligent hardware, businesses can keep up with technological advancements and gain cost reducing efficiencies.


Internet of Things (IoT)

IoT consists of all the web-enabled devices that collect, send and act on data they acquire from their surrounding environments.

This technology allows businesses to gather real-time insights, track inventory and assets, monitor equipment and customer behavior, and optimize operations. By leveraging IoT, businesses can enhance their productivity, reduce costs, and provide better services to their customers, ultimately driving growth and success.

Some examples of IoT for business include smart factories, connected supply chain management and intelligent energy management systems.

The “smart lock” for example, by which you can limit access to property to specific individuals, and will ultimately replace the need for traditional keys and locks, is highly effective in improving safety.

Overall, IoT is a powerful tool for businesses to gain a competitive edge and adapt to the increasingly digital and
interconnected world.

I first started working with Firstlight Cloud Xchange back in 2003 when I was an employee at another company. Since then, I have opened my own company and they have provided communication services to my organization at multiple locations. Our recent migration to the Cloud for all our services had been completely seamless. The installation was on time and the ongoing management provided by Firstlight helps OSG meet our daily needs and grow our business.

I work closely with Firstlight Cloud Xchange as the IT Manager of BDS and can say with confidence that it is and has been a great working and learning experience. As a customer and not an industry insider, it is not possible for us to know which carrier is telling the truth or how reliable their product really is. This is where Taslim’s expertise comes very handy. FCX always implements the service and the carrier that can best deliver what BDS needs without a bias. Paired with outstanding customer service from the rest of the FCX team that, in my opinion is unparalleled – making them one of the most reliable, understanding and trustworthy vendors I have worked with so far. Thank you – Firstlight!

Aram

I have worked with Taz and the team at Firstlight Cloud Xchange since 2004. From the beginning of our engagement, both of our companies have grown together. Firstlight was integral part of building our voice and data network. The Cloud based services recommended by FCX proved to be more reliable and efficient than our previous setup. FCX installed and currently manages our telecom and network services. I am happy to say that we are very satisfied with their level of service and performance.

Debbie

LSNYC is a large law firm with 600 lawyers in several locations across the five boroughs of New York City. Our network requirements are pretty complicated and elaborate – to say the least. We leveraged Firstlight Cloud Xchange’s expertise and their existing relationship with some of the major providers in the marketplace. FCX successfully deployed Cloud services that consolidated all our network services throughout all our locations on one platform with better uptime and lower cost. We are very happy with what FCX has done for LSNYC.
