# SOTI Connect Wins 2019 IoT Evolution “IoT Excellence” Award

by Stephanie Lopinski Mar 5, 2020

[SOTI Connect](http://soti.net/products/soti-connect/), part of the [SOTI ONE Platform](http://soti.net/products/soti-one-platform/), has been announced as a winner of the [2019 IoT Evolution “IoT Excellence” Award](https://www.iotevolutionworld.com/newsroom/articles/444525-winners-the-2019-iot-excellence-award-announced.htm), presented by [TMC](http://www.tmcnet.com/) and [Crossfire Media](http://xfiremedia.com/).

As a 2019 IoT Evolution “IoT Excellence” Award winner, SOTI Connect has been recognized for its innovation in gathering and managing information from connected devices often not associated with the IoT. In this instance, the award recognizes SOTI Connect’s ability to manage and support industrial and mobile printers required for business-critical tasks.

## So, why was SOTI Connect selected from thousands of nominations globally?

#### Here are a few reasons:

- SOTI Connect opens more IoT device options for IT professionals to choose from. Built with a data-driven architecture and support for multiple communication protocols, SOTI Connect allows organizations to choose the best IoT devices for their business needs without worrying about compatibility.
- With SOTI Connect, you can reduce the downtime of IoT devices and eliminate the need to hire costly onsite service repair technicians when mobile device issues arise. Using SOTI Connect, software updates can be done instantaneously, automatically, and remotely with alerts and actions that resolve issues quickly with minimal user intervention.
- In 2019, [cyberattacks on IoT devices surged 300% with almost 3 billion reported events](https://www.forbes.com/sites/zakdoffman/2019/09/14/dangerous-cyberattacks-on-iot-devices-up-300-in-2019-now-rampant-report-claims/#3f7536e45892), according to F-Secure. SOTI Connect alleviates this worry with innovative features like remote firmware and security updates to patch vulnerabilities. Data stays secure. Devices keep working. And businesses remain productive.

[SOTI Connect supports the management of SATO, Brother and TSC Printronix Auto ID printers](http://soti.net/resources/newsroom/2019/soti-connect-adds-new-printer-management-solutions-with-sato-brother-and-printronix/?year=2019&month=0&p=5) with business-critical functionalities in retail, healthcare, manufacturing, field services, transportation and logistics.
