The main challenge was to centralize their domestic and global roaming providers to avoid managing multiple and complex agreements. Additionally, they needed NB-IoT and LTE-M capabilities to address the regular power issues on their battery-powered devices, which require the transmission of small amounts of data over long distances. They also sought an easy-to-deploy connectivity management and troubleshooting solution that would enable them to operate and scale across continents.
