Self-hosted alternatives to Ubidots
Ubidots is an industrial IoT platform that ingests device data, builds dashboards and runs rule-based alerts, with multi-tenant options. One listed app does its main job and runs in your own Cloudflare account.
Each answer comes from the app’s README and source code, compared with the features Ubidots describes on its own site.

Self-hosted IoT platform for device telemetry, realtime dashboards and automations in your own Cloudflare account
- What a Ubidots user would miss
- MQTT, synthetic variables, device templates and white-label multi-tenant portals.
- What it adds
- MIT licensed and single-tenant, with data in the owner's Cloudflare account, a read API, embeddable widgets and an MCP server that is off by default; it also sends anonymous usage stats to telemetry.nodrix.live.
- Partly Data ingestion over MQTT, HTTP, TCP or UDP. HTTPS and WebSocket only; no MQTT, TCP or UDP.
- Partly Real-time dashboards with 20 or more widget types. Drag-and-drop dashboards with nine widget types, updating live, shareable read-only by public link.
- Yes Rules engine with alerts and automated actions. Visual automations on variable, schedule, sunrise or sunset and event triggers, with webhook, code, email and chat actions.
- No Synthetic variables and machine learning for data processing. No calculated variables or machine learning found.
- Partly Multi-tenant organizations with role-based access and white labeling. Owner, admin and member roles with email invites, but each deployment is single-tenant with no organizations or white labeling.
- No Device organization with templates, groups and tags. Projects and variables created on first data; no templates, groups or tags found.
- Partly Extensibility with serverless functions, custom widgets, plugins and APIs. Code snippets in automations, embeddable Web Component widgets, a read API and an MCP server.
- Yes Long-term data retention. Older telemetry is kept in R2 as hourly NDJSON files.
