These devices are very handy and compact which helps broadcasting the messages at a small radius of distance. These can be connected to the phone via Bluetooth which is highly convenient.

I have found the entire service to be really excellent to work with and implement. Truly I found the estimote sdk to be extremely simple to work with, and implement in XCode. As yet, I haven't worked with this in Android, however I see this as being just as simple there as well. I also appreciated the Estimote cloud service as a simple solution to monitoring my fleet of beacons.

Easy and reliable to get beacons on estimote. Perfect idea for tracking assets for real monitoring. One can get as many beacons as you'll like to get. Creating app is seamless and fast. Tech support was quite nice and rompt.
