InduSoft has released InduSoft Web Studio 8.1. With this new version come exciting new updates and expanded capabilities for the HMI/SCADA software you’ve come to rely on. About InduSoft Web Studio. InduSoft Web Studio is a powerful, integrated collection of automation tools that includes all the building blocks needed to develop modern Human Machine Interfaces (HMI), Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems, and embedded instrumentation and control applications. InduSoft Web Studio supports all Windows runtime platforms, ranging from Windows CE, Windows XP, Windows XP Embedded, Vista, Windows 7 (32/64 bit), Windows 8 (32/64 bit), Windows 8.1 (32/64 bit), and Windows Server Editions, along with built-in support for local or remote (web) based visualization. InduSoft also conforms to industry standards such as Microsoft .NET, OPC, DDE, ODBC, XML, and ActiveX.

DAQFactory offers the features and power you'd expect from a SCADA software tool. It offers most all the features of the big tools like Wonderware, Citect, RSView, but scaled down for smaller systems. If you have 100,000 tags, then those other tools are probably the right solution for you, but if you have 30 tags, or 300 tags, or even 3000 tags, then DAQFactory can offer the same features without the added cost and without the added complexity of setting these systems up.
