Mender

Mender offers robust, secure, and customizable over-the-air (OTA) software updates for smart devices. In practice that means assessing, monitoring and responding to security threats on your behalf.

Who is it for? Mostly companies without a full security team. Alongside the main category they mention Security. As a small company team themselves (11 to 50 people), they tend to serve customers of a similar scale best. You will probably talk to the people who build it, which is great until you need 24/7 support.

Mender is based in San Francisco, California and founded in 2015. Their site is mender.io.

Before you commit, look at response times, what is included in monitoring, and reporting. A short pilot with your real data tells you more than any demo.

If you have worked with Mender, tell the next buyer what you paid and what surprised you. That is the part of this page we cannot write.
