Wonderware extends its real-time visualization offering to all mobile devices
Because this solution requires no additional software to be installed on mobile devices, it is remarkably easy to deploy, manage and maintain.
" This new offering completes and extends Wonderware's strategy in terms of mobility for real-time visualization of production facilities and infrastructures. Wonderware is determined to maintain its position as market leader, and this solution is a clear demonstration of this determination. Unlike competing solutions already available, this one offers numerous advantages, notably in terms of deployment, maintenance and versatility..

" Mobility is at the heart of many of our customers' performance initiatives for distributed installations. We are convinced that mobility tools will not replace the installations we know today - be they control rooms or HMIs at the foot of machines - but they will complement the tools currently in use and gradually replace paper, which is still widely used in many companies. To demonstrate our commitment to the mobility sector, we have put together an unrivalled portfolio of products. IntelaTrac (released in 2010) enables you to carry out data collection in the field, following industry-specific procedures. SmartGlance (released in 2011) offers a mobile reporting solution accessible from any SmartPhone. Last but not least, Work Task from ArchestrA Workflow (released in 2012) offers a technical means for mobile staff to take part in a company process regardless of their geographical location. And today, InTouch Access Anywhere for access to real-time plant visualization. " - explains Grégory GUIHENEUF.

InTouch Access Anywhere also offers advanced IT security features, making access to supervision completely secure.
