    The experience in general terms I have to recognize that it has been very good, it helps us to have our work teams integrated and have detailed information on their performance in real time. All this very well configured through a very simple and detailed access that allows us to see from a global perspective our teams, the resources they consume, the hours that are operational among many other things.

The biggest advantage is saving, because this technology can replace the human in many activities and even do better, to monitor or maintain. The data is extremely important for this technology, since the more information you have it will be much easier for us to make a decision. For example, see what we need when it comes to work teams. The registration of the user panel when having a tracking system, you can know what services we offer, when is your delivery day. What makes life easier for people who use this Iot. Another great advantage is the time that IoT saves us since all these activities are now delegated to the machines and this saves us a lot of work.
