Why choose Adroit?
One of the first questions that arises when faced with the selection of an industrial automation software solution is:
“Why should I choose this particular one when there are so many others to choose from?”
In a nutshell…
- Adroit iseasier, and therefore quicker and more cost-effective to configure and engineer
- It hasbetterfeatures
- It is moreresilientand provides higher performance
- Itcosts less
Fully on-line | Allconfigurationtakes place on-line. No cumbersome switching into a development mode or package, and then recompiling |
Fast development | You canacquire Adroitand start developing in minutes. There is no need to licence a development system. Only when deploying a production solution do you need to pay for anything |
3rd party tools | Use your favourite spreadsheet or database tobulk-buildan Adroit configuration in a high-quality, readily-reproducible fashion |
Industry Standards |
Widespread support for recognized industry standards throughout: EEMUA 191for alarm management;
21 CFR 11for configuration auditing; SNMP for network management; ADO SQL for historianand data warehousing; OPC client and server for data access, etc. |
High Performance HMI | ImplementsISA 101standard, which itself addresses the issue of proper situation awarenessfor industrial process HMIs |
PLC Interfacing | Comprehensive range of PLC drivers that all include an in-built "datascope" formonitoring and loggingof SCADA-PLC communications |
Object-based | Both SCADA server and HMI client provide anobject modelreadily extensible by OEMs and high-end System Integrators |
Smart Client | Smart Clientsimultaneously achieves the benefits of thin client - zero footprint install, auto-update, plus rich client - high performance, high productivity |
Standard Scripting | Scripting, if required, is offered at both server and client, and in standard languages: C#, VB.NET, JScript, or VBScript. No homespun programming languages invented |
Security | Perimeter defence option to countercyber-attackand other external threats that are increasingly a source of real concern. |
Redundancy | Dual-redundancy, high-availabilityat both server and client can be point-and-click configured in minutes. No complex scripting or programming required to engineer highly available, resilient system. |
64-bit system, small footprint |
No 16-bit legacy. Internal structures are 64-bit, and yet Adroit boasts an amazingly small memory and disk footprint. Installsin minutes |
Widespread use | More than 10 000 installations in dozens of countries around the world, yet local
UK development, support, and training |
Subscription licencing option | When capital outlay is a major consideration, you can effectively take out anannual subscriptionfor an Adroit licence at 20% of the normal upfront cost. |
Aggressively priced | Aggressive pricingmeans internal tags are not counted in licencing costs – only scanned PLC addresses. Plus, sliding scale for client licences means adding concurrent users costs progressively less and less |
