Themen
Services & Process
We deliver end-to-end IoT projects: from initial analysis and conception through platform architecture, hardware selection, LoRaWAN network deployment in the field or on-site, to platform development (web apps, mobile apps, dashboards) and managed operations. Everything from a single source.
We begin with a consultation to understand your operation - whether it is farmland in the Börde or a production facility in town. Next comes architecture design, hardware selection, radio coverage planning for your specific terrain, gateway installation, platform and app development, and go-live. We then manage and monitor everything on an ongoing basis.
Yes. We offer standalone advisory services covering IoT strategy, platform selection, network planning, and hardware evaluation. Several Soest-area businesses have started with a consulting phase before deciding on the full rollout.
LoRaWAN & Hardware
We work primarily with Milesight gateways and sensors - robust, CE-certified, and well-suited for both outdoor agricultural environments and indoor commercial use. We also integrate devices using MQTT, HTTP, or Modbus when connecting to existing equipment.
Absolutely. LoRaWAN excels in open terrain, reaching several kilometers per gateway. We perform a detailed radio coverage analysis for your fields and plan gateway placement to ensure reliable connectivity across the Börde landscape.
Yes. Every sensor and gateway ships with pre-set network parameters, payload decoders, and up-to-date firmware. They connect to your platform out of the box - ideal for rapid rollouts across large agricultural areas.
Platform & Development
Yes. Beyond standard Grafana and ThingsBoard dashboards, we build custom web apps and mobile apps - such as field monitoring portals, harvest tracking tools, or production overview apps tailored to the specific needs of Soest-based businesses.
Our stack includes ChirpStack as LoRaWAN network server, ThingsBoard (Community and Professional Edition) for device management and rule engines, Grafana for visualization, and Node-RED for data flow automation. Custom applications are developed with React, Next.js, and React Native.
Yes. We connect IoT platforms to existing systems via REST APIs, MQTT, and webhooks. Whether it is a farm management system, an ERP, or inventory management - building these interfaces is part of our standard project scope.
Hosting & Security
All platforms run on GDPR-compliant servers in German data centers. For businesses that require full physical control, we also offer on-premise installation directly on your own infrastructure.
We offer several SLA tiers with platform availability up to 99.9%. Redundant infrastructure, automatic failover mechanisms, and 24/7 monitoring keep your sensor data flowing reliably - even during critical growing seasons.
Yes. We install and harden the complete IoT stack in your local server room. Remote maintenance is handled over a secured VPN connection, with the same proactive monitoring as our cloud-hosted solutions.
Getting Started & Terms
A standard platform setup is production-ready within a few days. With pre-configured sensors, initial field coverage across the Börde can be established very quickly. Larger projects with custom development follow a joint rollout plan.
No. Our managed hosting and operations are cancellable monthly. We earn continued business through service quality, not contractual lock-in.
Yes. We build multi-tenant platforms that aggregate data from multiple sites - whether several fields across the Börde or different business locations in the Soest district. Each site gets its own dashboards, user access, and alerting configuration.

“WZ-IT provided very competent support in implementing our server and virtualization infrastructure. As part of the project, a Proxmox-based virtualization environment was set up along with a virtual machine for our application systems. Additionally, a structured backup concept was implemented. A particular focus was on security: the setup of a VPN tunnel and the clean implementation of encryption and access concepts were professionally executed. The structured consulting as well as the reliable and swift implementation deserve special mention. We are very satisfied with the services provided and are happy to recommend WZ-IT.”
