Aeris IoT Watchtower™ Monitoring

Uncover every device, every connection and every opportunity to optimize

View real-time insights that help your IoT operations team act faster, spend smarter and perform better — simply by activating Aeris IoT Watchtower Monitoring within the Aeris Connectivity Management Platform.

The challenge

You can’t optimize what you can’t observe

IoT devices are critical to your operations, but traditional monitoring tools don’t track cellular IoT traffic until it hits the edge of the enterprise, creating dangerous visibility gaps.

That means your operations team is flying blind. Without granular traffic-level insight, you can’t:

  • Spot performance issues before failures happen

  • Detect unusual traffic

  • Confirm uptime or coverage across deployments

  • Spot over-the-air (OTA) update failures quickly

  • See when devices can’t reliably reach the cloud applications and APIs

Lack of real-time device visibility drains your resources and slows your response.

You need operational intelligence built specifically for IoT programs and the cloud services that power them.

Our solution

Operational visibility without operational overhead

Simply connecting your IoT devices isn’t enough. You need visibility into your entire IoT deployment to proactively manage operations, optimize resources and drive strategic growth.

That’s where Aeris IoT Watchtower Monitoring steps in, transforming raw data into actionable business intelligence.

Aeris IoT Watchtower Monitoring enhances the Aeris Connectivity Management Platform with real-time, device-level visibility and traffic intelligence, so you get the 360-degree view of your global cellular IoT environment.

This unprecedented visibility empowers you to:

  • Monitor device behavior across networks and cloud services in real time

  • Detect anomalies and unusual traffic as they occur

  • Identify misbehaving devices and protocol deviations quickly

  • Investigate individual devices to diagnose issues faster

  • Track device health and performance trends

  • Expose unexpected data usage before it drives cost or downtime

  • See how devices communicate with cloud services and pinpoint failing endpoints

  • Find hidden issues like misconfigured firmware and "phantom" data usage silently drive up costs

Plus, Aeris IoT Watchtower Monitoring integrates directly into the cellular data path to give you granular visibility with zero friction—no agents, no custom SIMs, no rerouting, no new hardware and no disruption to your current deployments.

The result? True operational excellence through smarter resource allocation and faster mean-time-to-resolution.

Our approach

See what’s really happening on your network

Traditional IoT platforms provide a high-level view of traffic — how long a device was connected or how much data was used. That’s like knowing there were 1,000 vehicles on the highway at rush hour — it’s interesting but not actionable.

Aeris IoT Watchtower Monitoring gives you the complete picture
With Aeris IoT Watchtower Monitoring, you gain deep, real-time insight into every connection — at the IP, port and protocol levels. That’s like knowing not only the number of vehicles on the road at any given time but also whether they’re cars or trucks, where they entered and exited, and how likely each is to cause an accident.

Only Aeris provides this level of visibility
You’ll know what’s happening, where it’s happening and how to respond — in real time.

See more. Know more. Act faster.
