Features loved by our customers

Built with you in mind

Automate and simplify your workflow

Customize balenaCloud so that it works how you want it to by using our powerful API and SDKs

“We can scale much better and handle multiple devices instead of treating them individually - we don’t have to update the devices one by one. Moreover, the API is quite powerful and helps us automate quite a bit of our work. There’s no service we’re aware of that’s comparable."

Flavia Paganelli

Co-founder and Director of Engineering, 30MHz

Manage your fleet remotely

Save on engineering time by remotely updating your software, to as many devices as you have, through the balenaCloud dashboard.

“Being able to do software related tasks remotely, and managing and deploying to a large installed base are definitely the killer features of balena. This enables a very fast update cycle and therefore is a booster for the overall development speed of our services.”
