Hmmm. About 9 months ago I was looking to add IoT functionality for a large industrial device. I looked at Particle briefly, but TBH, they seemed more focused on the "maker" market than industrial applications and that would definitely be a negative in the market the product is going to be sold into.

I don't know if I missed it before, but the products I'm seeing on your site now really look more suited to what I need than they did back then. I've done a lot of network programming and IoT work, but since connectivity is such a minor feature of the machine, it would definitely be preferable to have a smart module to abstract away most of it for me.

Oh, well. There's always next time :-)
