Leverage GE Vernova’s partner ecosystem of deep domain knowledge and industrial expertise.Our Partner Ecosystem Resources Blogs Videos Additional Resources FAQs FAQs What is web-based SCADA? Web-based SCADA refers to SCADA systems that offer visualization and control capabilities through a web browser. This allows users to access operational data, monitor alarms, and interact with control systems remotely—without requiring software installation on each device. Web-based SCADA typically uses secure protocols to transmit data over internal networks or the Internet.Proficy Webspace provides a web client extension for iFIX and CIMPLICITY, allowing teams to access full SCADA functionality through a browser or mobile device. It delivers real-time visualization and control without modifying the core SCADA application, supporting faster response and broader visibility while maintaining security and control. What is web SCADA and how does it differ from traditional SCADA systems? The term “web SCADA” generally refers to SCADA systems that can be accessed through a web interface, rather than only from locally installed software. Unlike traditional SCADA, which is often limited to desktop clients within a control room, web SCADA enables remote access and broader visibility across an organization.However, not all web SCADA solutions include the server and backend components of a SCADA system. Proficy Webspace, for example, is a web and mobile client that extends existing iFIX and CIMPLICITY deployments, offering full-featured visualization and control without acting as a standalone SCADA system. How does web SCADA enable remote monitoring and control? Web SCADA enables remote monitoring and control by securely transmitting live process data to authorized users via a browser or mobile app. Operators, engineers, or managers can view system status, acknowledge alarms, and interact with dashboards from outside the control room—helping to accelerate decision-making and improve operational awareness.Proficy Webspace enables this functionality for iFIX and CIMPLICITY systems, allowing full access to synoptic screens and runtime capabilities from any supported device. With features like HTML5 support, enhanced encryption, and mobile optimization, it extends SCADA accessibility without compromising performance or security. What industries benefit the most from web SCADA systems? Industries that operate across multiple locations, rely on remote personnel, or require 24/7 system oversight benefit most from web-enabled SCADA access. This includes water and wastewater, power and utilities, oil and gas, pharmaceuticals, and process manufacturing, where timely access to operational data is critical for performance and safety.In these environments, web SCADA helps extend system visibility beyond the control room, enabling operators, engineers, and managers to stay informed and respond to issues more quickly—whether they’re in the field, on call, or working remotely. This added flexibility supports faster troubleshooting, better coordination, and more consistent oversight across shifts and locations. What are the key features and functionalities of web SCADA solutions? Web SCADA solutions often include features such as browser-based visualization, mobile access, user authentication and role-based access, alarm acknowledgment, and data security via encryption. These capabilities allow teams to monitor and control industrial systems from virtually anywhere, increasing agility and reducing dependence on physical workstations.Proficy Webspace delivers all of the standard iFIX or CIMPLICITY client experience through a secure, zero-install HTML5 interface. It supports multitouch gestures, remote alarm management, multi-monitor configurations, and integration with third-party applications—enabling rich, responsive HMI/SCADA access from desktops, tablets, or mobile devices. How can web SCADA improve operational efficiency and decision-making? Web SCADA improves operational efficiency by extending access to real-time data and control interfaces across teams—regardless of location. This enables operators and support staff to identify issues sooner, respond to alarms more quickly, and collaborate more effectively without being tied to a single workstation.With increased visibility across shifts, sites, and roles, organizations can make faster, more informed decisions and maintain continuity even when personnel are working remotely or in the field. This flexibility supports quicker troubleshooting, fewer delays, and better coordination across operations. How does web SCADA integrate with IoT and cloud-based technologies? Web SCADA can serve as a bridge between traditional industrial control systems and modern IoT or cloud-based technologies. By providing a browser-based interface for visualizing and interacting with data, it allows users to access information collected from connected devices, sensors, and systems—whether on-prem or in the cloud.In many setups, web SCADA acts as a visualization layer, accessing data that may be stored locally, in historians, or in cloud-connected platforms. This integration supports hybrid architectures where operational teams can securely monitor and manage both legacy infrastructure and newer IoT-enabled assets from a single interface. How can web SCADA support real-time data visualization and analytics? Web SCADA supports real-time data visualization by displaying live operational metrics through web-based dashboards and synoptic displays. Users can monitor system conditions, track alarms, and view updated process data without needing specialized software—just a secure browser or mobile app.Some web SCADA solutions also allow integration with analytics platforms, enabling users to view key performance indicators (KPIs), trends, and historical comparisons. Even if the web client itself may not perform advanced analytics, it plays a crucial role in delivering data access and visualization where it’s needed most—across teams, devices, and locations. What is the difference between web SCADA and mobile SCADA? The terms “web SCADA” and “mobile SCADA” are often used interchangeably, but they have subtle differences. Web SCADA refers to accessing SCADA functionality through a web browser—typically on desktop or laptop devices—while mobile SCADA emphasizes access through smartphones and tablets, often using touch-optimized apps or responsive interfaces.Both approaches provide remote access to visualization and control features, but mobile SCADA places greater focus on portability, gesture support, and connectivity on-the-go. Many modern solutions offer both, ensuring users can access the same data and functionality across platforms, whether they’re at a workstation or in the field.
