Studio 5000 Reviews & Product Details

Of all the major PLC development software Studio 5000 is the easiest to work with for both creating new programs and maintaining running systems. The visualization of online code, trending, and tag structure are top notch Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only negative of this software is the massive cost associated to buying Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In Studio 5000, the main liked feature is finding and replacing the tags we assigned for the particular IOs. Also, we can quickly post modules configuration compared to other systems Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Most of the time system hangs due to program loading, which affects the SCADA screen operations when we work online or access the studio5000 program online. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best part of this software suite is that it is exceptionally easy to work with and begin development, a lot of other systems require more background work like address mapping which RSLogix manages for you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The cost of the software compared to any comparible platform is incredibly high and the competition has been catching up to some of the ease of use in the rockwell environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It supports multiple Allen Bradley PLCs programming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It does not have a free version available, at least to view the logic of PLCs for troubleshooting in the process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Studio 5000 is the top program for any ladder logic needs. Everything is so seamless and there are endless options of equipment that can be used with it. I have been in controls for just a few years but I will be a lifelong Rockwell/studio 5000 advocate. I will always use Rockwell if I have a choice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not much to dislike about it. In previous versions there were a few things that I thought could be a bit smoother. Minor things like multi window and tabs but the updates fixed all of that and now it's the most user friendly software that any programmer could ask for. Whatever it is that someone may dislike, there will be an update that will fix it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the character appearance on the Programming screens a lot. It is not as boring compared to other suites I’ve used. It’s easier to work on projects with a really clear display and easy to read. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I hate the limitations to using AOIs. I want to be able to make edits anytime and all around my project. I dislike not been able to edit project online in AOI subroutines. I also hate that studio5000 crashes a lot working with IOs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Studio 5000 give you the flexibility to use almost anything you need to program from a simply to complex machines. The ability to use ladder, function block, structure text is nice. The help files and examples are a great tool when getting into unfamiliar situations. Very easy to learn too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can’t say there is a lot of things I dislike about the software, I guess the one thing would be version 31 has a few bugs in it that cause small problems with the PLC not getting all the data. It would cause the machine to stop from not receiving an input on a remote IO. Very small glitch that was corrected when we flashed it to 32. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Studio 5000 it is the easiest platform I've used. The way I can create reusable blocks such as AOI's and the way I can communicate with other devices is the best vs others platforms such as siemens, Omron or B&R Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

SFC language it's not good enough and sometimes working with strings data type Isn't easy as it should be. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
