M2M and Enterprise Mobility Market Update: Trends and New Business Opportunities

Enterprise mobility became a top priority among C-Suite executives in 2013. At the same time, the M2M market in the enterprise continued to evolve from a machine-centric view to an Internet of Everything (IoE) view - the notion that more "things" can be connected benefiting both employees and the customers of the enterprise.

This report starts with the top market activities witnessed in 2013 within the enterprise mobility market across devices, applications, and services supported by relevant data and concluded with trends to watch in 2014 and beyond. The report transitions to the M2M/IoE markets, reviewing the key value chain components that assemble a solution supported by connections and revenue sizing data. Introduced into the report is an assessment of the M2M big data and analytics market, one that is expected to gross over $14 billion in 2018. Also included is the latest quantitative data on the value-added services (VAS) portion of the value chain, which in the view of ABI Research, is where the majority of the revenues from M2M services will reside.

The report concludes with assessments of M2M ecosystem evolution across M2M VAS, customers and the entire value chain, and a peak at the new business opportunities which will shape the M2M/IoE market moving forward.
