Hey,

We at Semex-Engcon use ModemManager in our vibration monitoring 
solution: https://www.semex-engcon.com/en/products/menhir.

The device is used to monitor vibrations for civil engineering (e.g. 
construction sites) or seismic applications.

The device runs a Debian based linux distribution on a custom built 
processing board with a SAMA5D36 processor. The device uses a u-blox 
TOBY-L210 or SARA-U270, which we control using ModemManager.

Since we are a small company, ModemManager really helps us to get the 
modems running. The experience using ModemManager is quite good, but it 
seems to me that not many use ModemManager with u-blox-Modems -- so we 
are facing smaller issues (e.g. with different m2m SIM cards).

There is one thing that is quite uncomfortable for me: Compiling for the 
ARM platform, since I never made cross compiling work (use qemu, which 
is really slow). But this might be more an inadequacy of the developer 
(=me), than it is an issue of ModemManager
