Control Center is the Cisco Jasper IoT service platform, a cloud-based IoT platform that enables companies of all sizes to rapidly and cost-effectively launch, manage and monetize IoT services for any connected device. The platform, which is easily configurable to meet the unique requirements of businesses across a broad range of industries, helps companies accelerate time-to-market, automate operations, optimize performance, troubleshoot and fix issues, and manage costs.
