Ignition is SCADA software that has created a revolution for automated industrial and process control systems. Manufacturers, utilities, and integrators have completed tens of thousands of installations in more than 50 countries across the world.
Ignition is Web-Based
Ignition is installed centrally in one place, allowing instant deployment of runtime SCADA clients anywhere in your network. These aren't standard clients - these are Java Web Start clients, which deploy like web pages in a web browser. The Ignition Designer is also web-deployed, allowing for convenient and concurrent development.
