At Stacuity, we are committed to providing our customers with ultimate flexibility and control over their IoT connectivity. We’re therefore excited to introduce our latest set of software features: Dynamic Usage & Cost Controls.

This powerful platform enhancement allows customers to set thresholds for data usage and monetary spend at both the endpoint and group level. Whether it’s managing data volume (for example 10MB in a rolling 24-hour period) or cost (for example £5 per 7 days), our platform now enables real-time event triggers and automated actions based on custom-defined limits.

Key Features & Benefits

Granular Usage Monitoring

Customers can define volume-based warnings and limits across various timeframes (hours, days, weeks, months) to keep data consumption in check.

Monetary Control

Similar thresholds can be set in monetary terms, helping businesses manage and optimise connectivity costs effortlessly.

Proactive Alerts & Actions

When a defined threshold is met, the system can trigger an event—enabling real-time notifications and responses via Stacuity’s events engine. These events can be delivered through webhooks, email alerts, or logged within the Stacuity Portal.

Flexible Scope

Customers can apply limits at different levels:

  • Per endpoint within a group
  • Aggregate usage of all endpoints in a group
  • Across an entire VSlice, covering all endpoints

Hard Limits for Ultimate Control

Beyond just alerts, customers can enforce strict usage limits, ensuring that once a threshold is reached, further data usage is blocked automatically.

With Dynamic Usage & Cost Controls, you can configure your mobile connectivity to work exactly the way your business needs it to. As such, we’re rolling out these features to all customers – at no additional cost.

Looking to the future, we are considering how AI-driven trend analysis can intelligently learn from usage patterns and suggest optimal warning and limit values for similar SIM groups. This potential could further enhance automation and ensure businesses can fine-tune their connectivity management effortlessly.
