What do you like best about Golioth?

I took a Zephyr training that Golioth ran early in the summer. I felt fortunate to have been selected, and found the training immensely useful.

In a two-hour training, there's only so much you can realistically accomplish. I gained a lot of intuition into a set of tools a board vendor that is a big supporter of Zephyr makes, and then got to experience jumping right in to build Zephyr with tools commonly used.

Through all of this, the Golioth staff were constantly making sure everyone was able to move along, and when I had questions they were answered well. Additionally, they did well to guide us along with the procedures as well as the concepts behind it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Golioth?

"Least helpful" might be the wrong term here, but the weakest spot with this training might have been that there wasn't a great overview or even going down a little into Zephyr from 40000 feet - maybe to about 30000 feet. It's unrealistic to expect a deep dive in two hours. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Golioth?

Golioth allows you to use your own hardware (instead of offering a closed system), and it's also compatible with additional platforms, so it really gives you the flexibility you want for real mass deployments. They also have great technical documentation, providing developers a great experience to interact with all of their functionalities (including Zephyr) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Golioth?

I don't have anything in mind that I dislike about Golioth. I'm curious if they could offer something for LoRaWAN in the future. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Been with Golioth since the beginning!"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Golioth?

Ease of use when compared to other offerings. I have used many platforms and they give you flexability without it being confusing. Batteries included like:

* Settings

* FOTA

* Logging

* CBOR

* CoAP over DTLS

Plus all the things that make Zephyr great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Golioth?

Not as much optimization for low power/sleepy operation as I'd hope for. I think they mostly deal with applications that are in an "always on" configuration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Golioth?

Very easy to set up and get going, the Golioth console is top notch and the documentation well written and extensive. Multiple different methods for implementation make your solution flexible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Golioth?

At this point, one of the downsides would be hardware support, although I'm sure this will improve over time. ESP32/WiFi is the easiest to setup, but the Zephyr base makes porting easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Golioth?

Golioth was built right, and I could see that from day 1. being hardware agnostic allowed us to transition our legacy and new devices easily; providing OTA, Configuration and Data streams out of the box is amazing. The team behind Golioth have been exceptionally helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Golioth?

Flexibility in output streams (maybe BYO) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
