What are some of the hazards in these early days of IoT?

The hazards of these early days of IoT is that most people don’t understand the possibilities IoT offers, or that those “possibilities” are reality when the right solutions are deployed.  

For instance, consumers don't realize that entire homes and buildings can be designed and constructed with little 120 voltage electricity because lighting, HVAC, sound, security and internet can all be managed with low voltage, CAT6 cables. Its more reliable, and certainly less expensive to wire the connected home of today and it is technology future proofed for tomorrow.

Why create CytexOne Hospitality LLC?

We created CytexOne Hospitality to leverage our 15 years of experience the IT world, building and maintaining secure and reliable networks for the financial services industry. We refined and applied that knowledge to smart homes, offices and common spaces by building customized automation systems that control lighting, internet, HVAC, plumbing, security, audio/visual and other aspects of high end business and residential spaces.

There is no better business or other environment than the hospitality space where the benefits of seamless stable technological infrastructure will naturally benefit everyone -- guests, service personnel, managers, maintenance, owners and even their lenders who will love a faster ROI.    

How can CytexOne compete with some of the larger IoT players like a Cisco or IBM?

CytexOne is better. We are far more nimble, personalized and resourceful than large vendors like the ones you mention. We are confidently brand agnostic. We only select and incorporate the best-in-breed devices for our solutions and products.

Large players are constrained by hardware devices they either build, sell and design or by companies in which they have a financial interest.  CytexOne has already differentiated itself with an undeniable commitment to using only the best products in each category.
