## AVEVA Edge Reviews
  ### 1. I am not a huge fan of this software

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Mechanical or Industrial Engineering | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 30, 2019

**What do you like best about AVEVA Edge?**

The built in drivers. We use TwinCAT but the automatic tag recognition is horrible. We still have to make thousands of tags and structures manually using Excel. 

**What do you dislike about AVEVA Edge?**

Where do I start. Updates. Moving from 7.0sp1 to 8.0 was a disaster for us. The software destroyed many of our core symbol features and was a major, major pain to fix. Indusoft was not helpful and basically made us buy our way out. Not good.

The lack of real structures. Seriously, why can I have arrays in a class. This is severely limiting.

The security system can have a tag in the security field. Lame. Again very limiting

Can’t have symbols in symbols. Super limiting and cause architectural problems with symbol design. 

Lack of good graphic editing. The tools to create graphics are super basic and not very good.

Group editing. Why can’t you drill down into a group easily to see what you need to edit? Many other software does this no problem. 

Lack of screen folder organization. I work on rather large projects and not being able to organize my screens into folder is a pain.

Lack of a compiled HMI application. Transferring a HMI project is huge to a remote PC. There should be some kind of compiled version of a regular pc to push to the machine.

In short I feel like I am creating an HMI with crayons. Since it is what we use I am trying my best to redevelop the HMI application in Visual studio or TC3 HMI. As soon as I can I want to ditch Indusoft.

**Recommendations to others considering AVEVA Edge:**

Look at other options if you are a savvy coder. There are too many limitations and bugs for it to be worth your while. 

**What problems is AVEVA Edge solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Not many. I really hate working with this software compare to the other software packages I have to use. 

  ### 2. One project completed

Nearly all of it Most of the designing studio is old and needs updating fo the 21st century

**Recommendations to others considering AVEVA Edge:**

**What problems is AVEVA Edge solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I did a project for a produce storage warehouse. I have realized that Indusoft is not the way to go!
