The Zigbee Alliance recently announced there are now more than 3,000 Zigbee Certified products and Zigbee Compliant Platforms available to the market.
“Hitting the 3,000th certification demonstrates how collaborating across brands and standards is what’s helping our market flourish as everyone wants choice and the ability to easily connect devices to one another,” said Jon Harros, director of certification and testing programs, Zigbee Alliance, in a statement. “Our member companies work in different areas of the IoT realm yet come together to drive innovation and development through Zigbee Certification.
