Migration concept

From InTouch to Perspective

The same dairy pasteurizer line, twenty-five years apart. Drag the handle to wipe between a 1990s Wonderware/InTouch screen and a modern Ignition Perspective HMI we'd put in its place.

More than modules

New Ignition deployments

Looking to get started with Ignition? I'll help you scope licensing, architect the gateway and tag structure, and stand it up right the first time.

Custom projects

Full Perspective applications built to spec — greenfield builds or modernizing legacy HMIs and SCADA screens.

Dashboards & HMI

Operator screens and executive dashboards that turn plant-floor data into something people can actually act on.

Reporting

Automated PDF & Excel reports and historian queries, delivered on a schedule straight from your gateway data.

System integration

Connect Ignition to your databases, ERP, and devices — SQL, OPC-UA, MQTT, and REST — so your data flows end to end.

Custom modules

Need something that doesn't exist yet? I build modules to fit — it's how DataGrid Pro started. Let's talk →
