MILAN and HERZLIYA, Israel, February 24, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --

Essence, leading provider of M2M, cloud-based connected-living solutions, with more than 20 years of security and safety expertise, is offering WeR@Home^[TM] connected home solution to bring the Internet of Things to the growing customer base of Telecom Italia, the largest communications service provider in Europe.

Essence enables service providers to quickly launch a comprehensive smart home offering consisting of a home management system and simple-to-use mobile application, with a time to market from concept to delivery of 2-4 months.

Telecom Italia customers can install the wireless, battery-operated system in less than 20 minutes, as well as automate and manage their homes remotely with its simple and intuitive mobile and web-based apps.

"Our end-to-end approach to hardware, software and services gives a complete package of security, safety and home management for service providers to grow their business."
