60% of Firms Polled Plan IoT This Year

About 60 percent of respondents to a survey sponsored by Kazuhm said they were planning edge computing/IoT initiatives in 2019. Most of those entities are larger firms. “Only the smallest companies (50 employees or less) have a majority of respondents reporting they are not planning IoT initiatives this year.  

Companies with between 1000 and 5000 employees had the largest percentages reporting plans for IoT initiatives, with 68 percent saying they would do so.


Other surveys suggest higher percentages of firms will do so. Enterprises in the United States, United Kingdom, France, Germany, Mexico, Brazil, China, India and Japan increased their IoT spending by four percent in 2018 over 2017, spending an average of $4.6 million in 2018, Zebra reports.


Some 38 percent of enterprises have company-wide IoT deployments in production today, the Zebra study suggests. .

About 84 percent of enterprises expect to complete their IoT implementations within two years.
