Is anyone (successfully) using industry specific software packages/add ons/etc that work with a more general purpose HMI/SCADA package?
I've only dealt with packages that were written too specifically for some theoretical process. These crappy packages (all by the same vendor) proved to be entirely unworkable.
Wonderware recently released a Water and Wastewater pack to go with InTouch 10 (announcement here). I'm curious as to whether these guys have natively created useful (and editable) objects. It's certainly a smart marketing move to sell to "the top".
