Siemens Services for FactoryLink Customers

In May 2007, Siemens announced the acquisition of UGS Corp. ., expanding the range of automation technology provided by Siemens - particularly in the area of product lifecycle management software..

 

With the release of FactoryLink Version 8 SCADA, a decision was announced by Siemens to stop future product enhancements and place the product in maintenance mode.
This decision allowed the former FactoryLink development team to form a HMI Center of Competence (CoC) to focus on helping to enhance the Siemens SIMATIC WinCC products for the general market and to develop automated technology for FactoryLink customers to migrate to SIMATIC WinCC.
Existing Customer Support & Service (CSS) contracts for versions 6.6, 7.5, and 8.0 will be honored without restrictions until October 2012. Sustaining engineering for operating system revisions, layered product revisions, and defect correction will be provided under the terms of a CSS contract.

 

To protect your investment, FactoryLink customers are being offered cost-effective and low-risk options to switch to a powerful, future-proof SCADA platform with all the benefits of the "Totally Integrated Automation" concept from Siemens.

A network of contacts in the HMI CoC in Richardson, Texas, USA, are ready to answer all your questions about support options and to provide expert migration assistance.
You may contact the HMI CoC directly at go2wincc.sea@siemens.com.
