EGO Power Plus has appointed its first Internet of Things (IoT) product manager to its European product team.
Andrew Frohock (pictured above) will be leading the development and delivery of the company's new digital solutions designed for both commercial and domestic users.
From creating enhanced diagnostics and improving customer engagement for dealers, to strengthening product features and services for customers, the company says Andrew’s role will ensure that customers are getting the most out of what their tools and battery platform have to offer.
Andrew brings with him a host of experience having spent most of his career developing solutions, diagnostic systems, and services across a wide range of sectors including smart meters, electric vehicles, and smart home security.
EGO say they have specifically introduced this new role to drive changes through its business and build better value for its customers through enhanced experiences and more responsive services.
