We selected Cumulocity to modernize how we connect and manage our industrial robot controllers, moving from a legacy internal solution to a scalable, production-ready IoT Platform. The platform will give us a solid foundation to be able to deliver data driven services and proactive insights to our customers. The platform application with its user interfaces looks great and very stable, but the default views requires quite some technical insights in data models. So for the non-expert users we have needed to create some custom views/applications with microservices to provide our user with more simplified views. But with Cumulocity help and the possibility of running custom applications and microservices on the platform we have been able to add and implement what we wanted to have. The support from the Cumulocity has been good so far and we have felt that their are listening to us.

Easy to get started, but packaging and pricing changed along the way. The change is a disadvantage for us (financially speaking), and also the api rate limits are much lower now.
