I have dealt with Factory talk the most but I also enjoy preface and quick panels. I am currently.doing the training on ignition as a new client of mine has Ignition for scada from the Wells. And then ft view for the plant. Honestly they all have good and bad sides to me.
Does anything beat Wonderware?

Rockwell, once a proud brand
Ahh yes, this will soon bloom into the Win/Apple or Android/IOS debate. Face it, the plethora of HMI software platforms are a response to poor product development/support/cost. If the FTVIEW cost $10, we would all have a license, unfortunately, we must weight cost/service vs ROI, so where is the value?
I choked down the WinVista debacle, after Win8, I fled to Linux and Apple. I choked down the FTVIEW 32-64 Win7 catastrophe, now we have Design Studio that works on Win7, but not Win10 (ask around, someone has it working).
Basically, if you are an OEM, you can purchase a great HMI tech support package and FTVIEW is a great buy, enjoy the software. If you are like me, a lowly bottom feeding end user, you must rely on great sites like PLCS.net.
