AVEVA PI System Likes & Dislikes

I like how I can access everything in the plant without having to go there. It provides transparency and an excellent reference point for analysis.

efficient storage of time series data many useful integrations and data sources good tools for organizing and enriching data with metadata

Deep domain knowledge and industry experience Collaborative approach in designing specific solutions to meet the unique needs Software with an open and agnostic approach

I don't like the online interface; it's a bit difficult to use and not the most intuitive. I find it a bit clunky to click on some things and I don't always like how it scales some graphs.

Software quality is declining, with new updates often coming with major issues support often is unable to assist without requiring assistance from the development teams the configuration tools available such as PI system explorer have UX issues

Cost a concerning factor for small & mid-sized companies Solution becomes too complex if not implemented correctly Work through Partners
