Comprehensive functionality with extensive collaboration
SmartThings Pro, designed specifically for the B2B market, is a comprehensive platform that enables seamless integration and management of various devices, solutions, and services across enterprise environments.
One of the key features of SmartThings Pro is its intuitive dashboard, which allows businesses to monitor the status of connected devices through AI analysis, facilitating efficient device management.
Additionally, the platform includes an “AI Saving Mode” that helps reduce power consumption by applying energy-saving algorithms to connected displays, air conditioners, and appliances.
One such collaboration is the integration with Cisco’s Control Hub, enabling unified management across different systems. Samsung has also partnered with Aqara to deliver innovative guest experiences in the hospitality industry and with Quividi for cloud-based customer data analysis in retail solutions.
Samsung’s platform supports the integration and management of a range of devices including smart signage, hotel TVs, and a wide range of products such as lighting, humidity control, and cameras.
