A Collaborative Journey:
Edo & Normal Software

In 2020, Edo, a company focused on innovative building connectivity solutions, faced a decision on whether to develop their two-way building control functionality in-house or partner externally. After exploring alternatives and working with another IoT provider, Edo was introduced to Normal Software, sparking the start of a transformative partnership. Initially cautious, Edo's leadership was impressed by Normal's industry expertise and commitment to understanding their unique challenges.

Normal Software's platform proved its value during pilot site implementations, delivering a scalable, Docker-based solution that seamlessly integrated with Edo's needs for efficient fleet management and two-way building connectivity. Unlike competitors requiring heavy customization, Normal's API-first approach and intuitive application SDK enabled rapid development of tailored functions, streamlining workflows. The platform's ability to handle complex integrations, such as legacy system protocols, ensured connectivity without the overhead of other solutions.

The collaboration was defined by Normal's responsiveness and teamwork. Through regular calls, Normal's team worked closely with Edo to grasp their goals, resolving issues in record time and adapting to unique edge cases. This agility allowed Edo to pivot quickly, focusing on broader business objectives with confidence in Normal's reliable hardware and software. Tailored templates and advanced API connections further empowered Edo to roadmap innovative solutions for facility connectivity.

Normal Software's deep industry knowledge and proactive approach have been pivotal to Edo's success. By providing a flexible, robust platform, Normal enabled faster, more efficient deployments, particularly for energy-intensive projects. Their expertise in legacy system integration was critical in scaling Edo's offerings. This collaborative partnership has not only met Edo's immediate needs but also positioned them to innovate in the evolving building management landscape, making Normal a trusted ally in their growth.
