How Does ZTP Help Businesses?
The goal of ZTP is to automatically configure network devices without the need for manual intervention. This is a big deal for IT leaders because it drastically reduces deployment time, minimizes human error and allows IT staff to focus on more strategic tasks rather than repetitive setup processes. This also benefits businesses in general by allowing them to scale device deployment across multiple locations. With ZTP, teams can start leveraging new devices and updates far quicker, promoting companywide productivity in a cost-effective way.
These benefits are a big reason that the ZTP market is expected to have a compound annual growth rate of 10.3 percent from 2023 to 2030. It’s also part of why businesses are increasing their investment in devices: With ZTP, they can actually use the technology almost immediately after purchase. In fact, according to a report published by Grand View Research, “The adoption of IoT devices has surged with the growing reliance on ZTP-enabled connected devices by several industries such as healthcare, agriculture, retail, transportation, manufacturing, and aerospace and defense.”
