Dublin, March 27, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Consumer IoT Service Opportunities Update for MNOs" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Consumer IoT (CIoT) represents a growth area for connectivity, as well as a potential source of new revenue streams for operators that increase their role in the value chain beyond simple connectivity. The range of Consumer IoT (CIoT) devices and applications is increasing and consumers are beginning to perceive real benefits from IoT adoption. Market forecasts expect the pace of CIoT adoption to increase.

While GSMA intelligence suggests that the greatest short-term opportunity is for Industrial IoT (IIoT), this is not to say that the CIoT market is not also a critical future revenue source for MNOs.

Developments including LPWAN network rollouts and embedded SIMs are broadening CIoT application possibilities. As technology, infrastructure and propositions develop, the adoption barriers for consumers will reduce considerably, leading to a significant market opportunity.

This report assesses GSMA's finding regarding the relative opportunity of CIoT initiatives.

Vodafone and Verizon are at the forefront of operator IoT developments, but have taken divergent approaches to CIoT as summarised below. The report examines the approaches taken by these two leaders and evaluates the pros and cons of each. It also looks at how the CIoT market has developed over the last year and how operators are responding in order to identify recommendations for operators that are developing their CIoT approach.
