LoRa or SIGFOX
Unlicensed Spectrum

Yes
Latest
Unlicensed Spectrum
Very Low
LoRa technology can be used by non-telecom operators as
well
Its coverage can extend to 18-21 kilometers
No such network synchronization is required in the
ALOHA-based LoRa architecture
Much Better than NB-IOT.
Average data rate in a LoRa setup is 20 Kbps
The LoRaWAN technology market is in its early stage of
maturity, and has found widespread acceptance in public
networks. It has already been deployed for the creation of
smart cities at various places across the globe.

Operators, Business, Individual etc.


NB-IOT (Narrowband IoT)
Licensed Spectrum
LTE
3GPP
End of 2016
Works with GSM,WCDMA & LTE
Low
The usability of NB-IOT is still somewhat limited

Low Coverage. Good for Urban Area only.


Synchronization is required

Not too Good.


Average data rate in a NB setup is 200 Kbps
it cannot be used by private enterprises in their proprietary networks
