Asset Tracking

Asset Tracking with LoRaWAN, Sigfox & NB‑IoT

Efficient asset tracking is crucial in today’s logistics, manufacturing, and building operations. Whether tracking remote locations, vehicles, or moving goods – energy-efficient wireless technologies offer reliable and cost-effective solutions. Discover which LPWAN fits your needs and benefit from our support through to deployment.

Technology Options at a Glance

LoRaWAN enables private networks with long range and low power consumption. Especially suitable for off-grid tracking, giving full control over your infrastructure.

Sigfox uses ultra-narrowband in unlicensed spectrum. Highly energy-efficient and low-cost – ideal for simple asset status updates over long distances.

NB‑IoT is a licensed cellular standard offering strong indoor coverage and reliability – perfect for indoor or urban asset tracking.

  • Energy efficiency: Sigfox > LoRaWAN > NB‑IoT
  • Coverage: LoRaWAN (private) > Sigfox > NB‑IoT
  • Network dependency: LoRaWAN self-hosted; Sigfox & NB‑IoT rely on network providers

We guide you from technology selection to hardware configuration and platform integration – tailored to your asset tracking use case.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Which technology is best for mobile outdoor asset tracking?

LoRaWAN offers great range and low power consumption – ideal for battery-powered tracking over long distances, such as in logistics or agriculture.

Is Sigfox cost-effective for basic tracking applications?

Yes, Sigfox allows affordable tracking solutions with long battery life. It excels at simple status reporting – provided network coverage exists.

Is NB‑IoT usable in deep indoor or underground environments?

Yes, NB‑IoT provides excellent indoor penetration—ideal for urban or indoor tracking scenarios like warehouses or parking—thanks to licensed cellular bands.

Which technology offers the best battery life?

Sigfox is the most energy-efficient, followed by LoRaWAN. NB‑IoT uses more energy but is optimal for frequent data transmission needs such as real-time tracking.
