Key Takeaways

ThingsBoard is the only open-source solution, allowing full customization and cost-effective deployment

Google Cloud IoT, AWS IoT Core, and Microsoft Azure IoT offer strong cloud-native features but are proprietary and come with usage-based pricing.

ThingsBoard has built-in dashboards and multi-tenancy support, while cloud-based solutions require additional tools for visualization and often lack native multi-tenancy

Google Cloud IoT, AWS IoT Core, and Azure IoT offer stronger edge computing and cloud integrations, making them ideal for enterprise-scale solutions.
