Danfoss has updated and enhanced its service offering to create a more sustainable, scalable, and secure cloud-based portal for managing food retail operations. Previously known as Danfoss Enterprise Services (DES), Alsense™ is optimized to provide new levels of efficiency. Food retailers can reduce their net energy consumption by up to 30% with Alsense, saving money, and reducing food waste.
"We’re excited to offer a modern interface and powerful cloud capabilities to our food retail service customers," said Stephane Nassau, Senior Vice President, Global Sales at Danfoss Cooling. "The added benefits can make it significantly easier to track asset performance, respond to alarms, and reduce energy consumption — lowering overall operational costs and extending asset lifetime. This is an ideal cloud solution for those looking to keep day-to-day operations efficient and cost-effective."
All services are integrated into one hub, offering a seamless user experience and added functionalities. Some of these functionalities include:
With the updated Alsense platform, customers can depend on the combined expertise of two notable enterprises. Danfoss brings more than 80 years of engineering and mechanical experience to its cloud-based services enabled by the new platform powered by Microsoft Azure. Microsoft has the trusted security, scalability, and sustainability that customers have come to expect in their digital tools.
Danfoss and Microsoft announced the partnership in October 2019. The new Alsense platform is the first of many solutions to come from this IoT collaboration. "With Alsense Danfoss has proven the ability to understand and tackle device diversity and connectivity challenges of the food retail industry and deliver tangible benefits with an IoT platform that reduces operational costs and energy savings. This is how we empower enterprises to deliver sustainability through the smart use of technology," said Nina Lund, EMEA Retail & Consumer Goods Lead at Microsoft.
Existing DES customers will experience the added value of Alsense via automatic updates on the current platform. New customers can explore the solutions that best fit their needs by contacting a sales representative.
