Tele2 launches innovative IoT Portal

Stockholm - Tele2 AB (Tele2), (NASDAQ OMX Stockholm Exchange: TEL2 A and TEL2 B) today announced that it has launched an innovative IoT Portal that enables aggregation of some of the world’s most powerful IoT solutions in one single interface.

Tele2 M2M is now taking a next step in its customer and partner proposition by launching the Tele2 IoT Portal. Tele2 is first out of the blocks to launch such a versatile and all-encompassing tool for M2M/IoT solutions.

The Tele2 IoT Portal will include several key components such as a Customer Self-service Module which will allow customers and partners to access incident reporting, contact management, planned/unplanned maintenance messages and service reporting – all on a self-service basis. There is also several integrations with leading technology partners.

Rami Avidan, Commercial Director Tele2 M2M, comments: “I am very excited about this launch and I think it once again shows that we are trying to spearhead the development of M2M/IoT solutions that really makes a difference for our customers and partners. With this portal, we are creating an M2M/IoT application store, where you can choose to include individual tools that can take your business further through the right M2M/IoT solutions.”
