Report: Major shifts in smart home usage
Findings from the first biannual Plume IQ Smart Home Market Report from personalised communications services specialist Plume reveal comprehensive intelligence about the growth of the smart home sector, including the changing popularity, penetration and usage of connected devices and home networks.
The report analyses anonymised and aggregated data from a cross-section of the 41 million homes managed by the Plume Cloud across the US, Europe and Japan, comparing the periods January to June 2021 and January to June 2022. The data reflects consumers’ relentless adoption and use of smart and IoT devices in the home with a 10 per cent increase in device volume per home and an 11 per cent increase in data consumption – presenting Communication Service Providers (CSPs) with an opportunity to innovate while increasing revenue.
