Reporting

So, you’ve taken the leap and activated thousands of game-changing IoT devices with a Pelion IoT SIM—great decision! Now comes the fun part: keeping track of everything.

You might want to know:

• When did a device last connect?

• How much data has it used?

• Is it downloading firmware updates, or, just maybe, has its SIM been borrowed for streaming a live match during an 8-hour train ride? (We’re pretty sure that would’ve been smoother if they’d used Pelion’s high-speed passenger Wi-Fi. But hey, not everyone knows we’re the behind-the-scenes Wi-Fi heroes for Avanti.)

Understanding your device data is key to keeping your operations running smoothly. Pelion’s reporting tools give you full visibility into SIM usage, device status, and more, so you can monitor everything efficiently and manage your costs.

Dive into the data and learn how to:

• View detailed SIM statistics

• Create custom reports

• Export data for easy access

Step 1 View Statistics

To get started, head to the Statistics tab in the left-hand navigation. You’ll see a range of data points and usage details about your devices. Here’s what you can explore:

• Data and Sessions: See how much data has been used and how many sessions occurred within a specific date range.

• Data by SIMs: Get a quick look at your top 30 highest usage SIMs in the current billing cycle.

• Data Usage by Protocol: Find out how much data has been used by each protocol.

• Data Usage by IP: Understand data consumption by destination IP addresses.

• Data Usage by Direction: See how much data was sent or received across all SIMs within your chosen timeframe.

• Monthly Data Usage by Tariff: Understand usage patterns by tariff, broken down month by month.

• Total Data Usage: View total data consumption across all SIMs.

• Data Sessions: View the total number of sessions involving data usage.

• SIM Locations: If your SIMs have location metadata, you can see them mapped out.

Pro Tip: Some customers notice higher connection frequency and data usage right before a device starts malfunctioning. Identifying these early patterns can help you address potential issues before they become costly, downtime-inducing problems.

Step 2 View Custom Reports

Want to dig deeper into the data? Pelion’s Custom Reports are your friend.

1. Pick Your Data: Choose the data columns you’d like to include in your custom report.

2. Target Specific SIMs: Select which SIMs you want to pull data for. For simplicity, we’ve already selected "Active SIMs" by default.

3. Generate the Report: Click Submit and your custom report for all active SIMs will be compiled.

Pro Tip: Want to focus on a smaller set of SIMs? Copy-paste your list of SIM ICCIDs into the manual input field, and hit Submit to pull targeted data for just those SIMs.

Step 3 Export Custom Reports

Once you’ve got your custom report, you’ll want to export it for easy sharing or further analysis:

1. Check the Excel Spreadsheet box.

2. Enter your email address.

3. Click Submit and we’ll send the custom report straight to your inbox.

That’s it! Data, tracked, analyzed, and delivered to you, all in a matter of clicks.

Data Done: Pelion’s reporting tools make it easy to stay on top of your IoT deployments, optimize costs, and gain insights that help your business grow. Whether you’re monitoring SIM usage, tracking connectivity patterns, or analyzing performance, Pelion gives you all the data you need—when you need it.
