The SIM card is a technology which
most of us are familiar with, present in mobile devices since the early
nineties. The SIM card is the piece of hardware that contains data that
authenticates us with our mobile operator; receives a mobile connection, and enabling
us to connect to a network. However, in the future, a huge variety of connected
devices will connect to mobile networks without the need for a SIM card, thanks
to the eSIM management technology.
Businesses with a large number of
mobiles used by the employees will also benefit from the convenience of the
eSIM solution. eSIM management platform can deliver the streamlined user
experience for managing cellular connectivity, deploy new devices in a rapid
& convenient fashion, and enabling IT teams to provision. Adding new phones
to the corporate mobile service, or swapping devices between users as they join
& leave the company will become much more efficient, as it can be
accomplished remotely. Profiles for each user can also be personalized &
data plans can be optimized and adjusted, via the eSIM remote management
tools.
Future-proofing
Connected Devices
IoT service ecosystems that are
deployed over a long period are protected from the impact of evolving network
technologies, sunsets, or service terminations, by eliminating technical or
carrier lock-ins with a single eSIM.
Eliminating SIM
switching costs
Remote provisioning and different
carrier profiles & network technologies enable businesses to eliminate the
need to buy new SIM cards and physically replace legacy SIMs.
Maximizing Returns on
IoT Investments
By reducing costs & improving
logistical and operational efficiencies, businesses are empowered to minimize
the total cost of ownership of connected devices & boost returns on the IoT
service marketplace.
Streamlining Logistics
Management
With no need to physically replace
legacy eSIMs, organizations eliminate the procedure of managing costly &
time-consuming truck rolls to spread geographic locations.
Built to Last
Cellular-connected devices which are
still using SIM technology need a device tray that the chip can be inserted
within. While this has worked for decades, it needs to change as there is a
hole in the device where dust & water can potentially enter, and cause
irreparable damage. ESIM technology enables manufacturers to build waterproof
IoT devices. This can open the door to new opportunities in IoT water
monitoring, flood prediction, & other use cases while offering end-users a
product that is far more durable.
It is easier to switch networks. An
eSIM IoT solution makes it much easier to switch mobile networks. Instead of
needing to order a new SIM, waiting for it to arrive, then inserting it into
your mobile, you can switch to a different network with a mobile call or online.
You also would not need to go hunting for a SIM ejector tool to remove the old
SIM from your mobile phone.
