DevOps Engineer at a consultancy with 11-50 employees
Hardened, fast-launching base image that streamlined our Kubernetes node deployments
More published documentation around the exact CIS controls applied and how to layer additional Kubernetes-specific hardening, such as kubelet and CIS Kubernetes benchmark, on top would be helpful. A minimal or slim variant tuned specifically for container hosts and clearer release notes per version would also be welcome. Out-of-the-box monitoring and observability integration could be expanded.

Cloud monitoring has transformed real-time plant control and automated preventive maintenance
There is always room for improvement, and at the moment, I am on the good side. I do not really have a bad side of it or anything that I would like to see changed; I love what I see and I love what I use. One feature that comes to my mind as missing in Ignition Cloud Edition is the user graphics in the user interface. The graphics in the user interface, such as the slider or the shapes for the equipment, can be improved upon. When I am selecting a tank, I should see a real tank, or when I am selecting a breaker, it should look like a real breaker in the field, or a valve or a sensor or a slider. Every other feature, such as the graphs and charts, are cool.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Predictable, repeatable EC2 launches have lowered our operational overhead and increased our confidence when scaling node groups."
"The platform has improved system reliability, security, and operational consistency across our infrastructure."
"Ignition Cloud Edition has had a very positive impact on our organization, especially in the way we access and use industrial data."
"Ignition Cloud Edition has had a very positive impact on my organization."
"Ignition Cloud Edition has positively impacted my organization by enabling sharing so that projects can be shared without everyone having to access them through manual file sharing."
"Both the database and Ignition can be set up very easily without any hardware, and reliability and high availability are always there, built in."
"My main use case for Ignition Cloud Edition, even if it's just in my learning phase, was that it is a very interesting cloud platform, it was very much feasible, it can interface to multiple types of controllers and also with RTUs, and I see that its application can be used in other applications which is much more comfortable than other available platforms."
"Ignition gives you the blank paper to dream it, reach it, and draw whatever you need."
"The best features Ignition Cloud Edition offers are the ability to set alerts on a system and access that remotely."
"What I love about Ignition Cloud Edition is the advantages and functionalities it has over other SCADA software."
 

Cons

"More published documentation around the exact CIS controls applied and how to layer additional Kubernetes-specific hardening on top would be helpful."
"The initial setup and configuration process can be complex for teams without prior Red Hat experience."
"The pricing aspect of Ignition Cloud Edition is actually on the high side."
"The way the historian is set up is not conducive to large deployments and it makes querying the data challenging."
"For someone considering Ignition Cloud Edition, I think it is not bad, but honestly, I see it as overpriced."
"My concern is about cybersecurity. Since it's a cloud platform, the chances of countering cybersecurity attacks will be a major concern."
"Ignition Cloud Edition reflects that it is still missing some driver options and we require a more cost-effective solution, which is why I rate it an eight on a scale of one to ten."
"I think Ignition Cloud Edition could be more intuitive on how to use it."
"The accuracy of Ignition Cloud Edition is not very great, and reliability also needs improvement."
"Ignition Cloud Edition can be improved in the sense that it doesn't come with some drivers in the Cloud version. For example, local device drivers are not included, and you always need a local Ignition Edge there."
