  • A new API enables managers to pull data by connecting Crestron XiO Cloud to business intelligence platforms via cloud-to-cloud connections
  • The new Developer Kit enables third-party technology manufacturers to integrate their devices
    with Crestron XiO Cloud, so they can be managed like Crestron devices
