Switch to Simbase from Monogoto

The #1 Hologram AlternativeSwitch to Simbase from Hologram

Teams switch to Simbase who need to manage, scale, and control devices long after launch.Getting devices online is the easy part.

Join the IoT Teams who have already made the switch.

Switch from Hologram to SimbaseThe clear choice.Connectivity that's easy to start isn't always built to run at scale. As fleets grow and connectivity becomes business-critical, the gap between "easy to connect" and "easy to operate" starts to matter.

SIMBASE VS. EMNIFYFrom connected devices to managed operations.If your team has moved past the setup phase and needs predictable costs, tighter operational controls, and support built for production environments, we've got you covered.

Predictable PlansFlexible pricing options built around active-SIM billing means connectivity costs are easy to model and report — for engineering, operations, and finance. Not just easy to set up.

FlexibilityScale up or down without long commitments. Adjust data allocations, add regions, and update configurations as deployments evolve — without a platform reset.

Total ControlActivate, monitor, and troubleshoot your entire SIM estate from one platform. Set policies, manage usage thresholds, and get hands-on support when something in the field needs attention.

When fleet size makes cost visibility critical

Hologram's pricing combines a monthly SIM fee with per-MB data charges — two variables that compound as fleets scale. Simbase starts with straightforward pay-as-you-go pricing, no monthly SIM fee at the standard tier, and a self-serve path to wholesale rates when usage makes it worthwhile. The upgrade is already built into the platform — you activate it when you're ready.

When operations needs more than developers built for

The people managing a fleet day-to-day — monitoring uptime, responding to field issues, tracking spend — need different tools than the people who set it up. Simbase is built for the operational layer: usage policies, real-time visibility, and support that responds when it matters.

When global expansion exposes coverage gaps

Hologram offers global coverage, but network performance and reliability vary significantly by region. Simbase uses automatic multi-network steering to connect to the strongest available carrier — without manual configuration as new markets come online.

A clear picture of what migrating actually involves.We move your setup over — you don't start from scratch.

We review your current Hologram setup

We look at your existing regions, usage patterns, APN configurations, and device requirements — not generic averages. You get a specific view of what changes, what stays the same, and what improves.

Side-by-side coverage and cost comparison

Your current network profiles are mapped against Simbase so you can compare coverage quality, data costs, and operational capabilities like for like — in the regions your devices actually operate.

No guesswork before you commit

We surface trade-offs upfront — where things improve, where they stay the same, and what the migration involves operationally. You make the call with full information, not a sales pitch.

The commercial case for switching is straightforward.The commercial case for switching is straightforward.

Validate before you migrate

Get a Simbase test kit and run your devices in parallel before committing the full fleet. Coverage, performance, and platform fit — confirmed before migration day.

Hands-on migration support

Our team guides the move from configuration mapping through phased rollout. Parallel testing keeps your fleet online throughout — no downtime window.

A personalised offer based on your actual fleet

Share your current setup and fleet size and we'll build a cost comparison and switch offer based on real numbers — not list pricing.

Frequently Asked Questions

If any of your questions remain unanswered, reach out to our team to answer them for you.

Hologram works well for us now — why switch?

If your fleet is still small or in active development, it may not be worth switching yet. Simbase is the right move when connectivity becomes an operational dependency — when cost predictability, fleet-wide visibility, and response time on field issues start to matter more than ease of setup.

Can I migrate from Hologram without downtime?

Yes. Migrations are staged in parallel — your devices stay on Hologram while Simbase is validated. There's no window where your fleet is at risk.

Will coverage be as good as Hologram in my regions?

Simbase automatically steers to the strongest available network in each region. We'll share a coverage breakdown for your specific countries before you commit — so you're comparing real performance, not marketing maps.
