I had an interesting conversation with my friend's young son the other day—about how phones used to be. Remember? Wired to the wall. We were all trapped by that wire; the phones and anyone using them. The huge advance with the invention of the cordless phone that would let you roam all the way to the perimeter of your home or office, and sometimes lose the handset under a couch cushion!
My friend's son was wide-eyed. He’s never known that limitation. “How did you listen to music or watch videos?” he asked. I smiled, because tech has certainly come a long way, and helps us in so many ways we don't even think about.
How does that relate to DeltaV SaaS SCADA Mobile? To heck with geographical limitations for data and remote operations control! The perimeters of the earth are the only limitations!
Not long after the release of DeltaV SaaS SCADA Mobile a new client told me as much. They said DeltaV SaaS SCADA (the main software, for desktops) and the Mobile app saved them from having to drive to the site to get data. This saves them lots of people hours every day. “I have all my data in the palm of my hand,” they said.
I have to say, while this is very encouraging to hear, I’m not surprised. We’ve been computerizing data for the better part of two decades, always improving and moving forward. The new Mobile app is just the next step into the future.
And the future is now!
We've also been developing autonomous operations for about 5 years now too; rod pumps that fix themselves, pipes that tell you when something is wrong; like a leak and more. It's all coming together even faster now and the future is more than bright, it's limitless.
Much of this started just a while back when a phone without a cord was a big deal. We've come a long way in a short time, and I can see the potential of where this is going, and it's going quickly now.
There’s no additional cost for this, if you’re already a DeltaV SaaS SCADA customer. Just download it.
Use it for a while and then click one of my favorite buttons; the one that says “Feedback.” We give full considerations to all serious ideas—yours could be part of our next upgrade.
After all, the app is all about making your workday more productive.
