Atomic updates with built-in rollback is a key requirement. We need to make sure our devices continue to work with automated rollback if the update didn't take for any reason. Mender provided that crucial capability.

We tried a number of OTA tools and Mender was by far the easiest to integrate into our board. The Mender community was also very active which eased our concerns around support for this new product we are deploying.

I liked the idea it wasn’t something I needed to maintain. OTA updates are now really easy to build and roll out and the security capabilities such as code signing are easy to understand.
