How smart water metering using IoT can help you address your challenges?
Collect data from smart meters more frequently
With IoT-enabled smart meters, you can collect water usage at much more frequent intervals than with traditional meters.
This enhanced visibility allows you to monitor consumption patterns more accurately and make timely adjustments to water distribution, improving your operational efficiency and billing accuracy.
Detect leaks based on smart meter data
Smart water meters can automatically detect and alert you to leaks or abnormal water flow right on time. This capability drastically reduces the time between the onset of a leak and its resolution, preventing water loss, minimizing damage, and lowering repair costs.
Early detection through smart technology reduces the risk of major system failures and helps you avoid the costly consequences of undetected water waste.
Manage security of smart meters
With IoT-enabled smart meters, you can manage the security of your devices through over-the-air firmware updates, ensuring they are always protected against the latest cybersecurity threats.
This proactive security management ensures that your meters remain compliant with industry standards and prevents unauthorized access or tampering with your metering infrastructure.
Manage meters remotely and reduce maintenance costs
IoT-enabled smart meters eliminate the need for manual readings, allowing for efficient remote management and monitoring. With real-time data access, you can quickly detect and address issues, reducing operational costs.
Continuous monitoring helps prevent costly failures by identifying malfunctions early, while remote troubleshooting and firmware updates keep meters running optimally.

Save on IoT development and maintenance costs
Take a build-and-integrate approach -Developing your solution from scratch can be both costly and time-intensive, diverting attention from business priorities to technical complexities. LwM2M solutions, such as Coiote, provide pre-built features like telemetry data collection, device management, firmware updates, and secure communication, streamlining implementation. Quickly identify and resolve issues to reduce service costs. Utilize detailed logs and diagnostic data to pinpoint problems and address them remotely through actions like resetting, rebooting, executing remote commands, and performing tests.
Avoid vendor lock-in
Avoid vendor lock-in
When creating a long-term solution, avoid dependency on a single vendor. The open LwM2M protocol supports various client and server implementations, offering flexibility across hardware, device software, and server platforms.
Why should you consider this platform compared to other alternatives?
When compared to open-source LwM2M platforms, which rely on community-driven support, Coiote delivers responsive commercial technical support with SLAs, more robust enterprise-ready features, and faster feature development, specifically designed for large-scale deployments and enterprise needs.
In contrast to major cloud providers, Coiote offers advantages like no vendor lock-in, CoAP support, more detailed device monitoring and configuration, and enhanced flexibility for integrating third-party platforms.
Among commercial LwM2M providers, Coiote stands out as the most mature solution, backed by an expert embedded teamthat facilitates device integration and technical support. It also provides more platform integration options, including Webhooks and Kafka.
Compared to other platforms, our FOTA (Firmware Over-The-Air) features are more comprehensive, enabling you to track firmware update statuses, results, and version history.
Unlike other solutions, Coiote offers predictable pricing based on the number of connected devices rather than usage.
Compared to building your own in-house solution, Coiote IoT Device Management Platform offers advanced, ready-to-use features like device management, firmware updates, LwM2M data model, and security, which can drastically cut down development and deployment time. Additionally, the platform includes ongoing support, updates, and improvements from AVSystem, ensuring it remains aligned with the latest technologies and security standards. Maintaining an in-house solution demands significant resources and expertise.
