Case Study: W-Locate achieves cost-effective IoT fleet and asset tracking growth with Tata Communications

Escaping local service providers inflexibility, W-Locate chose Tata Communications for assured connectivity and coverage

W-Locate, a Singapore-based IoT start-up providing real-time location and fleet tracking services, was struggling to gain attention from local mobile network operators across Southeast Asia. High costs, limited flexibility, and rising public cloud storage expenses were making it difficult to scale its business, so it turned to Tata Communications for IoT connectivity and cloud support.

Tata Communications implemented MOVE™ IoT Connect alongside IZO™ Private Cloud, giving W-Locate access to more than 600 mobile network operators and a more affordable, scalable storage platform. The results included a 30% price advantage for customers, 30% cloud cost savings, zero-downtime migration, and support for operations across five countries while tracking 5,000 assets and growing.
