Ignition is the platform that connects everything and becomes the single source of truth for your data
Why use Ignition as a Platform?
Bridge the gap between OT and IT
By centralising your data, we eliminate silos and provide a single source of truth. With a unified data structure, OT and IT can come together to ensure consistent, accurate data across the organisation.
Pick data for functionality
With Ignition, you get your data from multiple sources to one place, then you can easily extract and use the specific data you need to address your business challenges.
Seamless integration and interoperability
Our adherence to standards like ISA-95 ensures that your solutions are built on a solid foundation of industry best practices. This not only guarantees compatibility and scalability but also future-proofs your investment.
How is Ignition different?
We chose to build our entire company around Ignition because it could help our clients in a unique way.
Attractive Licensing Model
Unlimited
Ignition’s unlimited licensing means you don’t have to worry about extra costs for adding more tags, clients, or connections. This lets us create solutions that can expand with your business without increasing your expenses.
Transparent one-time fee
A one-time fee makes budgeting simple and predictable. You know exactly what you’re paying for from the start, without unexpected costs down the road.
Modular
With modular pricing, you don’t have to invest in features you don’t need. This helps you manage costs more effectively and only add new modules when you know you’ll benefit from them.
Scalable and Easy Integration
Non-proprietary
Ignition can connect to virtually any device or system that supports standard protocols, such as OPC UA, MQTT, and more. This means you’re not locked into using specific brands or types of equipment, which often leads to cost savings.
Cross-platform
Ignition runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux.
Interoperability
It works well with both legacy systems and the latest technologies, allowing for smooth integration and communication between different components of your industrial environment.
Security
Ignition offers role-based access control along with integration of various identity providers, SSL encryption, and comprehensive auditing capabilities, ensuring your solutions are secure and compliant with industry standards.
And it fits well into the way we think and work
No lock-in
Just like Ignition’s open nature doesn’t lock you into using specific hardware or software, we don’t lock you into working with us. At any point, you can freely choose to stop our collaboration—no questions asked. You can also use us to build your solution for an international roll-out and have a local integrator implement it, with or without our help.
Transparency
Being able to get a price for your solution directly on Inductive Automation’s website is more than a convenience—it’s a commitment to transparency in a world where companies preferred to keep the real costs unknown until the sales call. That bold move resonated with us.
Flexibility
Why settle for limits? Ignition keeps up with the constant changes in digital transformation projects. With its modular design and powerful features, adapting and growing – two very important things for us – has never been easier.
