With groov, it's easy to build operator interfaces for PCs and mobile—at the same time—so you can securely monitor and control your automation system from anywhere you need to.
New groov webinar: Build mobile interfaces for industrial applications
Gavin Gray knew from experience about the problems you can run into when you're trying to set up remote monitoring from a mobile interface.
When a water treatment client asked for mobile capability, he wasn't at all sure he wanted to spend the time. A busy integrator and machine builder, Gray had plenty of other work to do.

The great thing about groov is that you can view your operator interface on pretty much anything—computer, mobile device, HDTV, whatever—with just a web browser, right? Right!
But sometimes you'd rather have your operators more focused on the HMI, especially on a mobile device. You'd like to slow down the constant distractions of a browser, like game scores or Facebook.
And if you're a machine builder or OEM, maybe you even want to use a tablet as an interface to your equipment and make sure operators can't look at anything but the HMI.
