M2M Barometer 2015

With the rise of the Internet of Things (IoT), Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communications has become a driving force for innovation in our cities, homes, cars and workplaces.

Business leaders in every industry are embracing its potential — in fact, nine out of ten businesses say that M2M is relevant to their organisation today.

And no wonder. Our Barometer research proves that when organisations adopt M2M, they see powerful and measurable results. 59% of those using M2M report “significant” ROI, up from 46% last year. And many are looking beyond the obvious cost savings: half of adopters say they’re using M2M to enable entirely new business models.

The Barometer is based on an independent study conducted by Circle Research, which interviewed more than 650 executives from 16 countries and seven industries. It gives you unmatched insight into:

• How rates of adoption are changing across regions, sectors and sizes of business
• The results that adopters of M2M are seeing in their businesses
• What early adopters do after launch to extend and evolve their M2M projects
• How different departments and executives get involved in M2M project decisions

Featuring case studies from leading M2M adopters and exclusive commentary from specialist analyst firm Analysys Mason, this year’s Barometer is our deepest insight into the market to date.
