Onomondo Wins the 2026 IoT Connectivity & Networking Award

Why Onomondo Won

As a full mobile virtual network operator, Onomondo owns and operates the core network beneath its connectivity services. Radio access networks connect devices to the Onomondo core, allowing every Onomondo SIM to operate through a single global APN while network logic and device controls remain centralized instead of being tied to regional hardware configurations.

Onomondo reports direct integrations with over 680 networks across more than 180 countries. Its non-steered SIMs allow devices to connect to the strongest available network, while configurable network lists give fleet operators the ability to manage connectivity based on coverage, cost, or deployment requirements.

The platform also provides real-time tools for monitoring device packets, network attachment attempts, authentication failures, signaling exchanges, data usage, and connectivity costs. These capabilities help organizations investigate device behavior and network problems without waiting for delayed reports from an operator.

Onomondo further differentiates its infrastructure by giving customers ownership of their SIM credentials. This allows organizations to transfer connectivity to another GSMA-certified provider without physically replacing SIMs already deployed in the field. Its support for the SGP.32 ecosystem extends that flexibility through remote profile management designed for large fleets of constrained and headless IoT devices.

Onomondo stood out because it changes what an IoT connectivity provider makes visible and controllable. By owning the core network, opening real-time network data, supporting global deployments through one connectivity layer, and giving customers ownership of their SIM credentials, Onomondo provides a more transparent and independent foundation for scaling connected products.

About Onomondo’s IoT Connectivity Infrastructure

Onomondo provides global cellular connectivity infrastructure for organizations building and managing distributed IoT fleets. The platform supports 2G, 3G, 4G, LTE-M, NB-IoT, and 5G NSA connectivity across its international network footprint.

Onomondo supports the SGP.02, SGP.22, and SGP.32 remote SIM provisioning specifications, as well as SoftSIM integrations with partners including Nordic Semiconductor, Quectel, and SIMCom. These integrations can eliminate the need for additional physical SIM hardware within the device.

Through its Connectivity Management Platform, customers can manage SIM status, network access, usage limits, alerts, security settings, billing information, and cloud integrations across individual devices and entire fleets using the web application or its API.

Traffic Monitor captures device packets in real time, Network Logs show network registration activity and authentication failures, and Signaling Logs provide visibility into protocol-level exchanges between local networks and the Onomondo core. Together, these tools give technical teams a more complete view of connectivity behavior across deployed devices.

The core network uses parallel gateways and routers with automatic failover, supporting Onomondo’s stated 99.99% uptime. By combining this resilient architecture with one global APN, programmable network controls, and transferable SIM ownership, Onomondo provides a connectivity layer designed to remain flexible as IoT products scale across devices, markets, and network environments.

Onomondo’s infrastructure also extends beyond traditional MVNO offerings through a hybrid public-private cellular network capability. This allows devices to connect to a local private network and move onto public networks without additional device reconfiguration, supporting more consistent connectivity across network environments.
