ThingWorx Analytics Builder is a part of and complements the already robust capabilities of
ThingWorx Analytics. The product helps convert complex data readings from connected products
and services into simple-to-understand information via a user-friendly interface. ThingWorx
Analytics Builder simplifies the advanced analytics process, helping solution developers interpret
information faster and save valuable time for other parts of the data analysis process.
“Implementing a comprehensive analytics operation should be at the top of the priority list for any
company pursuing an IoT strategy,” said Ryan Caplan, general manager, ThingWorx Analytics.
“ThingWorx takes the complexity out of the analytics process, and now with ThingWorx Analytics
Builder, it’s easier and faster to realize the true value of IoT – understanding the data.”
Interest in IoT analytics capabilities is expected to increase as the number of connected devices
continues to grow. According to Gartner, the market for connected devices will grow to surpass 20
billion things by 2020. These connected products will emit billions of operational and situational
data points that, when harnessed and interpreted correctly, enable a company to optimize
products, enhance product performance, improve customer satisfaction, and save valuable time
and money. Throughout the month of September, PTC showcased its expertise in IoT analytics
alongside several of its leading ThingWorx partners in webcasts shown globally.
