# Best IoT Platforms

*By [Bijou Barry](https://research.g2.com/insights/author/bijou-barry)*


With IoT platforms, developers can build applications specifically for IoT purposes. These platforms provide users with the ability to quickly build, test, deploy, and iterate on IoT-specific applications. Once built, businesses can connect these applications and continuously improve the solutions. IoT platforms often offer similar functionality to low or [no-code development platforms](https://www.g2.com/categories/no-code-development-platforms), such as drag-and-drop elements and WYSIWYG editors for non-developers. However, most do require some level of coding knowledge, and the more sophisticated platforms may require highly skilled developers. In addition to their standard functionality, some [cloud platform as a service](https://www.g2.com/categories/cloud-platform-as-a-service-paas) products may offer the ability to build IoT enabled applications.

To qualify for inclusion in the IoT Platforms category, a product must:

- Provide a platform for developers to build IoT-specific applications
- Offer application management tools for IoT specific application
- Possess the ability to deploy connected IoT application
