Key Features

Dashboard Designer: According to the vendor, users can create custom dashboards for Sigfox devices using a drag and drop interface. These dashboards can be shared with customers via QR code, eliminating the need for programming skills.

Periodic CSV Exports: The vendor states that users can generate periodic CSV exports of Sigfox sensor data, either through automated email sending or manual download. They can define specific devices and time ranges for the exports, streamlining data management.

Product Management: According to the vendor, this feature allows users to streamline settings management by assigning devices to products. They can add hundreds or thousands of devices to a product and make changes that affect all devices simultaneously.

Enterprise-Ready IoT Platform: The vendor claims that Datacake provides an enterprise-ready IoT platform. Users can create multiple workspaces for collaboration and invite members to collaborate on devices and data. The platform also offers user management with invitation-based access control and the ability to define rights and roles for permission handling.

White Label: According to the vendor, users can host the Datacake frontend on their own domain and set their own branding. This allows them to offer a fully branded IoT platform to their customers.

Sigfox Payload Decoders: The vendor states that Datacake enables users to decode Sigfox device data using payload decoders and encode binary payload and Sigfox metadata. They can preprocess payload data for forwarding to other systems.

Data Interfaces: According to the vendor, Datacake provides data interfaces such as an MQTT Broker for real-time data subscription and a REST API for an easy-to-use interface. Users can also connect with third-party MQTT and webhook integrations for multi-connectivity.

All your Sensors in one Place: The vendor claims that Datacake allows users to easily work with a few or hundreds of IoT sensors, regardless of the sensor type, within the platform.

Made for LoRaWAN: According to the vendor, Datacake is compatible with major LoRaWAN network servers such as The Things Network, Helium, ChirpStack, Loriot, and more. The platform provides templates for popular LoRaWAN devices, making integration and management easier.

Industrial IoT Solutions: The vendor states that Datacake enables users to implement Industrial IoT use cases such as condition monitoring, data logging, real-time dashboards, and data analytics. They can integrate industrial gateways or LoRaWAN devices and monitor conditions with real-time dashboards. Users can connect devices using MQTT, LoRaWAN, or NB-IoT.
