OmniServer Concepts - Why Do I Need OmniServer?

OmniServer Helps You Avoid Costly and Time-Consuming Custom Development

Traditionally, to connect non-standard devices like barcode scanners, scales, printers, etc. it would be necessary to use one of the following methods:

• Custom developed code
  • High time to develop
  • Not sustainable
  • High Total Cost of Ownership
• Interfacing through PLC code
  • Limited Access to Device Data
  • Higher PLC & I/O Costs
  • Less flexibility

OmniServer is a cost-effect and reliable alternative to spending your time (and money) on custom developed device drivers or complicated or unreliable workarounds involving PLC code or I/O.

You can develop your protocol in OmniServer and have it deal with all the nuances of device communications and data delivery. Less time spent on device communications means more time (and money) for the more important tasks in project management.
