Compare Edgefinity IoT vs. Linq

Edgefinity IoT is a powerful RFID and IoT platform that gives organizations real-time visibility into inventory, assets, equipment, work-in-process, and personnel. By collecting data from RFID readers, sensors, and connected devices, the platform provides a clear view of what is happening across facilities and operations. Edgefinity IoT helps businesses automate tracking, locate critical assets, monitor movement, verify inventory and shipments, improve production visibility, and support safety applications such as personnel tracking and emergency mustering. Configurable rules and alerts can automatically trigger actions when predefined conditions are met, helping teams respond faster and reduce manual oversight. Built to work with a wide range of RFID hardware and IoT technologies, Edgefinity IoT can be deployed in the cloud or on-premise and scaled across applications, facilities, and enterprise operations.

The Linq team is made up of engineers specializing in hardware, software, and applications from the facilities sector, based in the US, who are responsible for the design, manufacturing, and installation of systems both domestically and internationally. Our mission is to collaborate with clients and partners to address business challenges by leveraging cloud technology. Effectively gathering asset information within a facility is crucial for ensuring compliance and performing preventive maintenance. With the demands of today’s fast-paced work environment, facilities engineering personnel often find themselves overwhelmed. The process of data collection can be lengthy and monotonous, leading to inefficiencies. Even more concerning is the common practice of recording this valuable information on paper, resulting in significant underutilization and loss, as it is often stored away in binders. This makes it difficult to analyze the data for reporting or to identify potential issues proactively. To address this, Linq's innovative cloud-based platform leverages the existing smartphones and tablets found on-site at facilities, allowing asset data to be efficiently captured through a user-friendly app, thereby streamlining the entire process. By empowering teams with this technology, we aim to enhance productivity and ensure that critical data is both accessible and actionable.
