The shortest answer to "why addanode?"

There are bigger names in IoT and cheaper boxes on the internet. Here's why operators across South Africa choose to build with us instead.

Hardware + software, one team

We're one of the few companies that designs both the devices and the platform. There's no finger-pointing between a sensor vendor and a software vendor — one team owns the outcome, end to end.

Affordable for emerging markets

Our mission is frontier-market technology at a frontier-market price — not a European licence model converted to rand. We build the stack ourselves so the economics work here.

Works with what you own

addaNet is vendor- and PLC-neutral. We connect Siemens, Allen-Bradley, Schneider, Mitsubishi, Delta and third-party sensors — so you extend what you have instead of ripping it out.

Engineered for local reality

Load shedding, remote sites, weak signal, and compliance regimes like MHSA and DWS are designed in from day one — because we operate in the same conditions you do.

Start small, scale up

Prove the value on one line, pump station or fleet, then roll out site-wide on the same platform — without re-buying the software.

Your data, your rules

SA-region cloud or fully on-premise, with full export and no lock-in. You own your data, always.

See if we're the right fit.

A short discovery call is the fastest way to find out. No pitch — just a straight answer on whether IoT pays back on your site.
