Hardware that works with VibCloud

Choose from a range of proven, fully integrated sensors and gateways: route-based or online, wired or wireless - and analyse everything in one platform. Need something else? We build custom integrations too.

Two ways to monitor. One platform.

Route-based monitoring

Technicians collect data periodically on guided routes using a smartphone or tablet - with wired or wireless sensors, or permanently mounted ICP sensors. The lowest-cost way to start predictive maintenance.

Online monitoring

Permanently mounted wireless sensors measure automatically on the schedule you define, with no technician on site. Gateways deliver every reading to VibCloudOnline for dashboards, trends and notifications. Ideal for critical, remote or hard-to-access equipment.

Not sure where to start? Most reliability engineers and maintenance teams begin with route-based collection on their critical machines, then add online monitoring where automated collection pays off. We'll help you design the mix — and can facilitate all hardware purchases.

The mobile device? You already own it.

Route-based collection runs on ordinary Android (7.0 or later) and iOS (11 or later) phones and tablets — no proprietary handheld to buy, maintain or replace. VibCloud is proven in the field on 60+ device models our clients already carry.

iPhone & iPad

Used by clients on everything from iPhone 6 through iPhone 16, plus recent-generation iPads — with no reported issues.

Android phones & tablets

Proven on Samsung Galaxy, Google Pixel, Motorola, Xiaomi, OnePlus and many more — the phones your technicians already have in their pockets.

Rugged industrial handsets

Field-tested on ruggedised devices built for plant environments, including Cat, Sonim, Ulefone Armor and Doogee models.

See the list of client-tested devices in our knowledge base. Using a model that isn't listed? It very likely works — but with thousands of phone models on the market, we can't test them all ourselves. We recommend a quick test on your own device before you commit to it, and we'll gladly guide you through it.

Frequently asked questions

No. VibCloud is hardware-agnostic software. We work with a range of trusted hardware partners and can recommend and facilitate the purchase of sensors, gateways and data acquisition devices tailored to your monitoring needs.

For plug-in wired collection, the Digiducer USB accelerometer is the simplest all-in-one option, while the ICP-USB Signal Conditioner lets you use any existing ICP (IEPE) accelerometer. For wireless walk-around collection, Sensor-Works BluVib P1 sensors mount permanently and are read over Bluetooth.

Sensor-Works BluVib sensors with the Cassia X2000 gateway form a validated, fully wireless online system with VibCloud on the edge and in the cloud. RONDS RW606M sensors with the RH570 data collector are a rugged alternative proven in heavy industry.

Yes — that is one of VibCloud’s biggest strengths. Route-based and online data from different hardware all lands in the same platform, with the same trends, alarms, dashboards and reports.

No. Route-based collection works on ordinary Android (7.0+) and iOS (11+) phones and tablets — clients use everything from iPhones and Samsung Galaxy devices to rugged industrial handsets. Most modern devices simply work; on Android, a small number of models handle external sensors differently, so we recommend testing VibCloud on your own device before purchasing — we'll guide you through a quick check.

Possibly — custom integrations can be developed in-house by our team. Get in touch and tell us what you are using.
