Keep track of all 
manufacturing devices & drivers 

To optimize production processes, maintain security, and make informed decisions, manufacturers need a clear and detailed view of everything happening in the plant. 

octoplant version control software integrates with all common production and IoT devices. Unlike other solutions that only cover partial aspects of a plant, octoplant offers a comprehensive 360-degree view, giving you full oversight and control over your entire manufacturing environment. 

  • Get a complete change history detailing who made changes, when, where and why. 
  • Integrate and monitor all common production and IoT devices (no matter the manufacturer). 
  • Centralize, manage and standardize all programs and configuration data on a unified platform.

We now have a centralised data storage location, a clear structure for user rights, transparency about who changed what, where when and why, source code control and the ability to compare versions, which helps with standardisation. It is now easy to deal with changes: we Check-out the file, set the lock state, make changes, and check it back in. This is all fully documented and can be traced at any time, which also facilitates standardisation and contributes further to our development as a company.
