The "IoT Use Case Adoption Report 2024" is part of IoT Analytics' ongoing coverage of the IoT in general . The information presented in this report is based on an extensive survey of IoT end-users in manufacturing, healthcare, retail, and other industries. The purpose is to inform other market participants about the current state of adoption of IoT use cases across companies.
SAMPLE VIEW
How IoT use cases have evolved since 2021
IoT initiatives are even more successful, but payback takes time. Currently a majority of IoT projects have a positive ROI, a 13-percentage point increase compared to 2021. However, the share of projects that amortize in 2 years have declined.
SAMPLE VIEW
APAC is steadily ahead; North America is catching up. In 2024, APAC companies are still at ~11 use cases rolled out on average (+0.9 increase since 2021). North America and Europe have each rolled out ~10 use cases (+3.5 and +1.7 since 2021, respectively).
