IoT in Action

Product Overview

Real-Time Intelligence for Modern Factories

Transform raw sensor data into real-time insights that boost uptime, improve efficiency, and help your factory stay ahead of issues before they escalate.

What if your factory could predict breakdowns before they happen?

With Ubidots, your factory can communicate with you in real time, sharing powerful insights through clean dashboards and triggering custom alerts.
Ubidots empowers manufacturers and control system integrators to develop data-driven, cloud-based applications.

Get ahead with cloud apps and insights

In today’s fast-paced global manufacturing ecosystem, inefficiencies such as downtime, wasted resources, and energy loss stifle productivity. Smart factory integrators turn to Ubidots for powerful sensor data collection, analytics, and visualizations that help detect machine failures, energy-saving opportunities, and track manufacturing KPIs such as Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE).

Quantify Environmental Is Slashing Utility Costs With Ubidots

Quantify Environmental uses wireless IoT sensors and Ubidots dashboards to turn utility data into real-time insights, helping industrial clients monitor water, energy, and gas use, detect inefficiencies, and act before costs rise.

$250,000+ in annual client savings through optimized water, electricity, and gas consumption.

Millions of liters of fresh water conserved and tons of CO₂ emissions prevented driving measurable sustainability outcomes.

Improved operational oversight with real-time visibility into utility usage and equipment performance.

Success Story

Further exploration revealed a platform that was not only robust and reliable, but also extremely user-friendly, offering intuitive data visualization tools that would be easily comprehensible by our clients.”

FrequentlyAsked Questions

Have questions about Ubidots? Here are some ofthe most common queries to help you get started.

Can Ubidots calculate OEE?

Yes. Synthetic Variables compute efficiency ratios such as OEE directly from your machine data, with no code: availability from run and stop status, performance from cycle counts against ideal rates, and quality from good versus rejected parts. They can calculate in real time or over fixed intervals, such as per shift or per day, and the result is a regular variable you can chart, compare across lines, and use in alerts when performance drops.

How does Ubidots connect to PLCs and legacy factory equipment?

Ubidots supports MQTT, HTTP, and Modbus, so PLCs, industrial gateways, and edge devices can send data without replacing your existing architecture. Equipment that already speaks Modbus typically connects through a gateway that forwards its registers to Ubidots. If your equipment produces a non-standard payload, UbiFunctions can decode it into Ubidots variables. Devices with an active MQTT connection can also receive commands and setpoint changes back from the platform.

Can operators, engineers, and plant managers each see a different view?

Yes. Roles define what each user can view, create, edit, or delete, from dashboard-only access for operators to full management for engineers, and custom roles can match your own structure. In App Builder, you can hide platform features an audience doesn't need, so operators see a focused screen with only the dashboards and controls relevant to their line. Each plant or line can be its own organization, keeping access scoped to the right people.

Can I monitor several plants from one Ubidots account?

Yes. Each plant can be its own organization, and users who need cross-site visibility can be granted access to several. Device Types standardize machine configurations so a new line is set up the same way in every plant, and Global Events, available on Industrial and Enterprise plans, apply one alert rule across your whole fleet instead of configuring each machine separately. Aggregation dashboards let you compare the same metric across machines side by side.
