Positioning

obniz Cloud is the foundation
obniz Now is the
application platform

obniz Cloud powers your devices. obniz Now is what you build the IoT service on top of — start from a state where the parts you need are already in place, instead of writing the app yourself.

Device management API platform

obniz Cloud

A developer-facing foundation for device connection, authentication, OS updates, and remote control. Use it with our SDKs and APIs to build your own application.

  • Device management
  • REST / GraphQL / WebSocket
  • OS update delivery
  • Build apps with the SDK

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Our team is happy to answer anything else about the platform.

Q. When can anyone start using obniz Now?
Self-service signup is currently in preparation. Until then, obniz works with each customer directly to roll it out as a tailored solution. Reach out anytime to start a conversation.
Q. How is obniz Cloud different from obniz Now?
obniz Cloud is a developer-focused API platform for device management — a foundation you build apps on top of using our SDKs and APIs. obniz Now sits on that foundation and adds everything you need to ship an IoT service: data storage, access control, notifications, integrations, and AI analytics. Use Cloud if you want to build everything yourself; use Now if you want a ready-made application platform to assemble on.
Q. What kinds of data can I store?
Time-series numerical data, state-change events, images and files, issue tickets, and operation logs. Retention and capacity are sized to fit each customer use case.
Q. How granular are the access controls?
Read and write permissions can be set per organization, department, location, and role. We support multi-store operations, partner-shared workspaces, and head-office vs. field separation — the patterns that matter in real deployments.
Q. Can I integrate with external services?
Webhooks, REST APIs, Slack notifications, email, and report exports (CSV / Excel / PDF) are supported out of the box. Connections to ERP systems and existing SaaS can be implemented as custom work.
Q. Which hardware works with it?
Every obnizOS device is supported. Pick the right hardware for the job: Intelligent Edge (RS232 / RS485 / CAN / Ethernet / LTE), BLE Gateway (Bluetooth sensor collection), or obniz Board (prototyping).
Q. What about track record and security?
obniz has been running in production since 2018, with over 40,000 obnizOS devices deployed across enterprise customers. Communication uses TLS 1.2 with elliptic-curve cryptography, and devices run on microcontrollers — immune to kernel-level vulnerabilities and viruses.

We will assemble your IoT service
on top of obniz Now.
