Why managing IoT SIMs matters for security camera providers

Seamless connectivity that delivers reliability, safety and peace of mind to customers. That’s the aim of manufacturers and distributors of IoT enabled security cameras. However, the real value of these solutions depends on how easily and effectively their SIMs can be managed across fleets of devices.

The challenge of managing IoT SIMs

Security cameras often operate across multiple sites and, sometimes in different countries. Managing thousands of SIMs manually is not only time consuming but also prone to error. Traditional management methods can lead to:

• delays in activating or suspending IOT SIMs
• difficulties in monitoring data usage
• inefficiencies in troubleshooting connectivity issues

For security camera providers, these challenges can directly affect the end user experience.

The value of a fully integrated platform

This is where an integrated software platform such as Anvil becomes vital. Instead of juggling multiple systems, providers gain a single, intuitive interface where they can activate, suspend, monitor and manage their SIMs in real time. This integration means greater visibility, control and responsiveness.

Benefits for manufacturers and distributors:

• scalability: as security camera deployments grow, a centralised IOT SIM management platform ensures that scaling connectivity does not add complexity

• cost efficiency: real time monitoring helps prevent bill shock and keeps data usage optimised
• improved support: when connectivity issues arise, having instant insights into SIM status reduces downtime and improves customer satisfaction

• global reach: with multi network support, devices can stay connected wherever they are deployed
Enabling future ready security solutions

We have been a customer of Fidelity for a number of years now and the service is always impeccable….SIM cards are sent out next day, which is extremely helpful for our fast-paced business. I would highly recommend working with Fidelity Group.

George Serbanescu

My old supplier took hours of me waiting on hold and I was never able to get a clear answer. Each time I contact Fidelity Group they get back to me promptly with the answer regardless if this is about billing, a technical issue, roaming. The service from Fidelity is impeccable.

Gwen S

We moved to Fidelity 2yrs ago. Moving to Fidelity was extremely simple and the saving was significant. The service received from you is amazing. You always deal with everything in the a professional manner responding to all queries in no time.

Julia Connely

I have had difficulties using Horizon on my mobile and Carl has helped me to get the new hub connected with a lot of patience. Found out that my broadband provider had to give permission for connection as it wasn’t their hub I was using anymore. He has been very calm throughout.

Mac McGlone

I spoke with Carl after my system was down. He guided me through the problems and kept me informed. The follow up was excellent until the problem was resolved.

Richard Davies

We recently changed from a standard broadband line to a leased line with Fidelity. It was installed within two months of signing (and that included the Christmas/New Year break), so much quicker than we expected. And it is far superior to our old line. A very efficient service.

Matthew Finn

Been a hosted telephony customer of Fidelity now for almost a year and be delighted with the service. The tech support is first class as you get a dedicated adviser to handle your case all the way through, which I love! I would definitely recommend.

Neeta Patel

Marco has helped a great deal on the problem and has helped to improve the services after discussion, some of which I did not realise were available. He kept in touch until we were fully happy.

Mike Hawkes

Great company, helpful and always available when required.

Kevin Dowling

Fidelity is an excellent telecoms provider. The levels of support we receive pre and post-sales are second to none.
