OVERLAND PARK, Kan.,
March 20, 2019 /PRNewswire/
-- Sprint (NYSE: S) has launched the Curiosity™
IoT Estimation Tool, the industry's first interactive online
estimation tool which allows small and medium-size business (SMB),
as well as enterprise customers, immediate access to customized
Sprint CuriosityTM IoT data pricing.
CuriosityTM IoT Estimation Tool: Transparent
Pricing to Accelerate IoT Initiatives
No matter what kind
of IoT data services are needed, the Sprint CuriosityTM
IoT Estimation Tool allows users to select one or several features
to create custom pricing information.
- Custom APNs – Unique Access Point Names for IoT Devices
- SMS Alerts – Get SMS real-time alerts and notifications when
devices are triggered
- VPN Access – Connect IoT devices through a specific VPN
- Device Management – Over-the-air device management and
configuration
- Static IP – Permanent fixed IP address capabilities
- Data Management – Data services for the aggregation, storage
and management of IoT data
The estimation tool also provides international IoT data rates
in six different regions around the world to help global
organizations plan and build IoT solutions.
"Confusing pricing is one of the main pain points in the
industry, which is why we developed this estimation tool.
Regardless of which IoT planning stage you're in, this tool quickly
and easily shows customized pricing by gigabyte for our leading IoT
data services," said Ivo Rook,
senior vice president of IoT and product development for Sprint.
"By showing our customers exactly what they need to budget for IoT
data services, it eliminates the guess work and highlights the
confidence we have in our IoT data pricing. We are the first
company to develop a tool that shows customized pricing and we are
confident this will be very helpful to organizations around the
world."
Once an estimation is completed by a customer, it is sent
to a dedicated Sprint IoT sales team member who is able to quickly
turn the estimation into a quote which streamlines the process of
implementing the IoT data solution. The estimation tool also helps
businesses rapidly scale IoT solutions by showing pricing estimates
for adding any number of devices and services without the need to
go back and forth with a sales team.
