Because we engineer both the hardware and the software, addaNet isn't a bundle of third-party parts hoping to talk to each other. It's a single, coherent stack designed for industrial sites in Africa — and for the equipment, networks and power realities they actually run on.
addanode sensors plus your existing instruments, meters and PLCs
Reads PLCs, runs logic, buffers locally through load shedding
Ingest, store, model and secure — SA-region cloud or on-premise
Live views, WhatsApp/email alerts, scheduled reports
ERP / MES via REST, OPC-UA and SQL
| Layer | What addanode provides |
|---|---|
| Devices & sensors | In-house IoT devices plus support for third-party sensors — vibration, flow, level, current, temperature, gas, RFID and more |
| Connectivity | LoRaWAN, NB-IoT, 4G, Sigfox or wired — selected per site for coverage and cost |
| Edge | Local gateways that read PLCs, run control logic and buffer through power and network outages |
| addaNet platform | Secure ingest, storage, modelling and analytics — SA-region cloud or on-premise |
| Dashboards & alerts | Live web dashboards, scheduled reports, and WhatsApp/email alerting |
| Integration | REST and OPC-UA APIs, SQL export, and connectors to ERP/MES (SAP, Syspro, Sage) |
Modbus, OPC-UA, MQTT, direct I/O — we read what your equipment speaks.
Edge buffering and low-power devices keep data flowing through load shedding.
Encrypted transport, role-based access, audit logging, no exposed PLC ports.
