Stable by Design: Why Now is the Time to Rethink Your Industrial Connectivity Platform

The industrial software world is shifting fast. Acquisitions, consolidations, and a wave of new edge platforms are reshaping the connectivity landscape.

For many, the recent announcement that PTC’s industrial connectivity and IoT businesses are being acquired by TPG is just the latest reminder of how fragile “stability” can be when corporate priorities change hands.

For operators, utilities, and critical infrastructure companies, this kind of change sparks important questions:

• What happens to my licenses and support when ownership changes?
• Will this new direction align with my long-term goals?
• And most importantly, who can I trust to stay the course?

Stability Amid Change

At AUTOSOL, stability isn’t a side effect — it’s our design principle.

While others adapt to new investors or shifting portfolios, we remain privately owned and customer-driven, focused exclusively on reliable, interoperable industrial data transport.
For nearly 40 years, our software has quietly powered some of the most demanding data environments in the world — moving data securely, efficiently, and continuously from the field to the enterprise.

And unlike many vendors navigating corporate transitions, our roadmap is clear, steady, and focused on our customers — not shareholders.

Modernization Without Uncertainty

Innovation is accelerating across the industrial automation market. From cloud-based platforms to edge analytics tools, new technologies promise speed and scalability — but they often come with uncertainty.

New startups are pushing the boundaries of edge-to-cloud integration. It’s exciting progress, but with rapid change often comes risk: shifting focus, evolving pricing models, and the unknowns of long-term support.

AUTOSOL bridges the gap between stability and modernization. Our flagship products — AUTOSOL Communication Manager (ACM) and Edge ACM (eACM) — combine decades of field-proven reliability with the scalability needed for the future of industrial data.

• ACM remains the trusted foundation for secure polling and device communication across every major industrial protocol.
• eACM extends that reliability to hybrid and cloud environments, offering a modern architecture designed for scale, context, and connectivity at the edge.

Together, they offer a path forward that’s proven, supported, and built to last — no uncertainty required.

Collaboration, Not Competition

AUTOSOL’s technology is designed to complement, not compete.

We integrate seamlessly with many platforms, such as Schneider Electric’s Geo SCADA and Inductive Automation’s Ignition, enabling customers to unify data collection, visualization, and control in one cohesive environment.

Whether data originates from field devices, SCADA systems, or cloud analytics platforms, AUTOSOL ensures it flows securely, consistently, and contextually to the right systems — without forcing you into a single-vendor ecosystem.

That interoperability is what sets AUTOSOL apart: we meet customers where they are, and help them build what’s next.

Proven Experience in Migration

Many organizations are now reevaluating their data connectivity strategy — especially those tied to products with uncertain roadmaps or shifting ownership.

For them, migration isn’t just a choice — it’s a necessity.

AUTOSOL has guided hundreds of customers through this process, helping them move away from legacy or competitive solutions with confidence and minimal disruption.

Our approach focuses on:

• Minimal downtime: Maintaining operational continuity throughout migration.
• Preserving configurations: Reusing what works, rebuilding only what’s necessary.
• Broad protocol support: Eliminating dependence on limited or proprietary systems.
• Hands-on expertise: Direct support from the engineers who build the product.

Each migration strengthens data reliability, future-proofs infrastructure, and gives customers peace of mind that their systems won’t be left behind.

If you’re watching the market and wondering whether now is the right time to act — know this: AUTOSOL has already helped companies like yours make that move, smoothly and successfully.

Why Stability + Flexibility = The Future

The future of industrial data isn’t about chasing every new platform — it’s about building a foundation that’s both stable and adaptable.

That’s exactly what AUTOSOL delivers through ACM and eACM:

• Proven reliability from decades of real-world performance.
• Flexible integration with modern systems like Ignition and cloud analytics.
• A roadmap focused on customer needs, not corporate transitions.

As the market continues to shift, one truth stands out: stability is innovation’s strongest foundation.

Your data deserves a partner that’s in it for the long run.
