About

Inductive Automation is a Folsom, California-based industrial software company that develops Ignition — an integrated SCADA, HMI, MES, and industrial application development platform that has become one of the most widely deployed industrial automation software platforms in North America and is rapidly expanding globally. Ignition's commercial model — a server-based license that includes unlimited clients, unlimited tags, and unlimited historical data without per-node or per-tag licensing fees — disrupted the traditional SCADA licensing model of major automation vendors like Wonderware and iFix, which charged by the number of data points and client connections, creating licensing costs that scaled proportionally with plant size and modernization scope. Inductive Automation's flat-rate model made comprehensive SCADA implementations economically viable for mid-size manufacturers and dramatically reduced the cost of expanding existing systems.
