Beyond Evolution is a pioneer Mobile applications & cloud services solutions company, well on its way into creating new landmarks in Internet & Telecommunication domain. An early entrant, its experience in the areas of cloud computing and focus on research based cutting edge technologies has helped it carve out a niche for itself in every segment it addresses.
Speaking about the initiative, Vineet Taneja said, “Internet of Things (IoT) is a wide field and what attracted me to Beyond Evolution is that it addresses a real need of markets like India. Their platform allows for modular upgrades of existing household appliances and delivers real value to the consumer.”
CEO and Co-founder Saurabh Sharma said , “Our endeavour is to develop IoT products that provide real value to the consumer, are simple to use and are at a highly affordable price so that they can be adopted by all. Our product therefore enables a consumer to remotely monitor and control any household appliance from his/her mobile from anywhere, thereby bringing tremendous convenience and ease in his/her life. We wanted to make a device that can be bought and used with what we own now, without having to wait for higher end technology/upgrades in the future.”
The company, which counts Honda and SoftBank among its enterprise customers and is now entering the consumer IoT business, is working on an array of electronic devices that merge with current systems, so that customers do not have to upgrade in order to adopt these products.
