“We approached Opensoft Systems (OSS) to upgrade our plant SCADA system which is a critical fault finding tool for our warehouse conveyor systems. This was long overdue as the operating system and hardware it was installed on were no longer supported and were susceptible to failure. From our initial conversations, the OSS Team clearly laid out their approach for our project and took us through the whole project lifecycle in a clear and concise manner. From the initial Functional Design through the Project Development Phase to the Systems Installation on site, they kept us regularly updated with their progress to a successful site installation. Their project documentation was very comprehensive. I would like to praise their lead engineer, who performed very well throughout the project.”

“Opensoft successfully implemented a SCADA and Data Historian solution for our gas cylinder heat treatment area.The system has been of great benefit in providing us with reliable data collection and a secure means of backing up our heat treatment furnace profiles.

The system is now a critical business tool for our operation. Thank you to your team for a smooth implementation. ”

“We chose Opensoft’s AVS system to provide a much-needed upgrade and application resilience to our Line 1 production facility. Our existing SCADA system had been in situ since 1998 and ran on the Windows NT platform connected to Siemens S5 PLC’s.

The hardware the system ran on was naturally becoming a concern to us due to its age and the increasing potential for the SCADA PC hardware to fail. We liked the simplicity with which AVS allowed us to upgrade to the latest Windows operating software whilst retaining our existing SCADA software. The solution also allowed us to remove our legacy serial communications from the SCADA PC’s to the plant in favour of Ethernet.

We opted for the AVS server module to provide ongoing data and application backups going forward to what is a critical production facility operating 24 x 7. We are now considering deploying AVS to other areas of our facility. Thank you to all at Opensoft who were involved in our deployment.”

“Your AVS software has provided us with the security of regular automated data backup processes and the peace of mind that we have instant recovery of our SCADA application in the event of a SCADA PC failure.

The added benefit of your AVS software, allowing us to effectively upgrade our old SCADA PC’s to Windows 7 and new hardware, is a real plus.

Thanks to everyone involved at Opensoft Systems.”

“Opensoft Systems have implemented for us a Data Historian, for the secure collection, storage and reporting for our site’s operational and environmental reporting requirements. We then asked them to deploy their AVS backup and recovery solution for our main SCADA nodes.

The system provides us with secure daily data backup and application recovery solution. These systems provide direct communication and data retrical from our plant PLC’s, their continued operation is therefore critical to us. It was clear on both projects that their expertise and knowledge was high which gave us the confidence to invest in both solutions. We are considering extending AVS to encompass other systems within our plant. ”

“Opensoft undertook a project for us to integrate our MRP System to our machines SCADA control system. Although not a defined project, we knew clearly what we wanted to achieve. Opensoft understood our needs and explained to us in practical terms how our project objectives were best met, this involved working closely with our Engineering and IT team.

This involved integration to our MRP/SQL system and understanding our production order execution requirements.

Opensoft seamlessly integrated the product order and recipe make up from our MRP system, automatically to our plant SCADA system. Additional control precautions were also put in place to prevent operators producing products to the wrong machine set up. The whole project was executed smoothly and simply in what could have easily been over complicated. I would recommend Opensoft Systems for any similar projects you are considering. Thank you to all involved.”

“I should like to express my appreciation of the work that your engineers performed for us over the last few weeks in making the switch over to the AVS system such a trouble free experience. Your engineers were also very helpful in other matters relating to virtualisation and software not directly related to the project”
