Performance of Ignition Across Market Features
Ignition Likes & Dislikes
Easy deployment. Great compatibility with various other platforms, protocols and operating systems. Licensing models that allow you to pay for the features you need but not limit the size and scale of your development. The support, community and training is great and is not paywalled. Culture of supporting users and integrators.
What we like the most is the real-time monitoring feature of the product and the rapid development of any SCADA project.
Ignition enabled me to design visually appealing and user-friendly SCADA interfaces without even having to use PHP. This has freed up our team hundreds of working hours compared to rigid, code-intensive solutions.
Report designer is a bit clunky compared to the other features of the product. As the feature set grows, the learning curve increases. You do need to have a good plan in place for large deployments to keep them optimized for performance and organized. A lot of features and ways of doing things means flexibility, but also means a lot of right and wrong way to do things.
We faced scalability issues during product deployment and the deployment process is difficult too. Also, it is a costly product.
Additional features are more often than not dependent on scripting languages which I being a mere non coder find annoying. This means that things like some automation is done by our IT team or through outsourcing IT consultants only.

Traditional HMI software users will be pleasantly surprised with the power and ease of Ignition
Our whole team loves working with Ignition. The feature set, training and support are exceptional. Fair and transparent pricing. Ignition is easy to deploy and and connect to. Use only the tools you need, but the breadth of modules and depth of additional features mean that it can scale according to your business and adapt to advanced requirements. - IT MANAGER<50M USDHardwareReview Source

Powerful and highly capable platform, but requires strict oversight.
Great platform with almost no limits to it's capabilities. A bit lacking in user management however.
