Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) is an essential business model, which is finding its feet in many developing countries. An MVNO serves the requirements of niche telecom services users who have unique preferences that are not acknowledged by major Mobile Network Operators (MNOs). For a long time, MVNOs have succeeded in delivering low-cost offerings to the end-users. However, landmark telecom tech such as IoT has made the task relatively challenging as it requires unprecedented resources. There is an exigent need for expert IoT services provider with complete grasp of IoT service delivery.
Single Multi-Faceted Vendor or Specialized IoT Services Provider
For MVNOs to deliver IoT services, they need a complete IoT platform. The choice is whether to recruit a single vendor for all services including IoT or specific IoT services provider. Regardless of the selection you make, it is vital that the vendor offers:
Robust IoT encryption
Not every IoT development venture has been done with security in mind. Hence, many IoT devices are vulnerable in terms of security. Therefore, you need the best encryption of IoT connectivity during transmission.
Low-cost connectivity options
For MVNOs, it is essential to have cheaper options for economy-minded IoT users. Therefore, the IoT connectivity provider they recruit should offer economical options such as SigFox and LoRA.
