Machine to machine (M2M) has opened up immense opportunities in technology and business. Its myriad applications extend beyond the corporate world into our daily lives, and have transformed the way we live, work and play. With SingTel M2M, this powerful platform will enable these applications to unlock the full potential of connected smart devices. As the M2M provider of choice, SingTel M2M offers several key benefits:

• Faster to-market speed
  Customer can expect to onboard the M2M service in just 30 days.
• Best visibility and control
  Superior performance requires visibility and control over costs and operations that allow you to manage costs and improve operations throughout your entire business. SingTel M2M provides the best M2M platforms and user experience for enterprise-level solutions.
• Global gateway to Asia
  SingTel M2M also brings with it SingTel's strong partnership with mobile operators in the region, including Optus Business in Australia. This regional presence means you do not have to re-design your product or M2M application whenever you enter into a new Asian market. You can use the same platform and environment, which translates to cost reduction, faster to-market speed and scalability to strengthen margins and outpace competitors.
