“With consumers demanding more integration among the devices and apps in their ‘connected homes,’ there is a greater need for simple, robust onsite management, and secure remote access,” said Art Lancaster, Co-Founder and CTO of Affinegy and Board Member of AllSeen Alliance. “We have been innovating solutions for this problem since Affinegy’s inception, for more than a dozen years. Configuration, provisioning, installation, management, security, scaling…..this is Affinegy’s bread and butter, and we are thrilled to announce CHARIOT Connect today to give our customers powerful tools to help them succeed in serving their own customers’ IoT needs.”

"51% of broadband households that own a smart product believe that interoperability is very important," said Tom Kerber, Director of Research, Parks Associates.
