Particle for peace of mind

We switched our sensor interface board’s logic/communication chip over from using Particle to a competitor’s micropython based boards. After we did, we had nothing but problems - from hardware failures to cellular connectivity issues to kernel panics. We were constantly trying to engineer new hardware and software approaches to mitigate all of the new and exciting ways that that board would find to crash. We finally got sick of it and switched back to Particle Boron and our stability has increased tremendously. I used to wake up every morning and check out backend metrics dashboard to find out which devices had stopped reporting. Now that we are back with Particle and have swapped out the last of our devices, I haven’t had to do this in weeks. They just work like they are supposed to.

Easy deploy and manage connected devices with great reliability

Online statistics and flashing makes it easy to manage connected devices without access.

IoT for Hobbyist to Commercial

I switched to Particle because of the built-in connectivity. I am a novice at microcontrollers, so anything I can do to simplify the process is well worth it. When I received my first wi-fi Particle (a Photon), and again later when I bought my first cellular unit (an Electron), I was overwhelmed at how quickly the claim and communicate process worked. Following through with Variables, Functions, Publish, and Subscribe makes the process of exposing the Particle and controlling it extraordinarily simple. Add OTA flashing and, well, what’s not to like?
