HMI manufacturer using for Rockwell PLC

Another vote for Siemens Comfort Panels. Significantly cheaper than Panelviews, in our experience easier to program and easier to integrate with AB PLCs than their own HMIs. If a screen goes out you can simulate from a PC in TIA Portal to keep the system running. Plus if you’ve been using Siemens PLCs maybe you’re familiar with them?

Two drawbacks, one minor being you have to export/import tags between Logix and TIAP, and one major being there’s no way to upload a project off the HMI if you need to make changes. Its utterly flabbergasting and really unacceptable in for a product in 2021.

Even with those flaws I highly recommend taking a look.
