Explore how AVEVA is building on the Wonderware legacy with modern solutions for industrial intelligence and digital transformation. If you've worked in industrial automation for any length of time, chances are you've come across Wonderware. For decades, Wonderware was one of the most recognized software brands in manufacturing, energy, water, and infrastructure. From HMI and SCADA applications to historians and manufacturing software, it played a major role in helping organizations monitor operations and make better decisions with their data. Today, those same solutions continue under the AVEVA name. While some still refer to the software as Wonderware, the platform has evolved significantly over the years. What began as a set of operational software tools is now part of a much broader industrial ecosystem that connects people, assets, processes, and data across the enterprise. More Than a Name Change It's easy to assume that Wonderware becoming AVEVA was simply a rebranding exercise. In reality, it reflects a larger shift in how industrial organizations are approaching digital transformation. Operations teams today aren't just looking for visualization and control. They're looking for ways to connect information across sites, and gain deeper insight into asset performance and production processes. AVEVA brings those capabilities together within a single software portfolio while maintaining the technologies that made Wonderware successful in the first place. For existing users, the transition is largely seamless. The software continues to perform the same core functions, but it's now backed by a wider range of solutions that extend beyond traditional SCADA and HMI applications. Building on a Strong Foundation One of the reasons Wonderware became so widely adopted was its flexibility. Facilities could start with a single application and expand over time as operational needs changed. That philosophy hasn't disappeared. Today, organizations can still rely on familiar tools like InTouch HMI, System Platform, Historian, and MES. The difference is that those solutions now sit within a larger ecosystem designed to support cloud connectivity, industrial analytics, and enterprise-wide collaboration. Rather than managing isolated systems across multiple sites, companies have the opportunity to create a more connected operational environment where information flows more freely between teams and technologies. Familiar Products, New Branding Many of the products users know today originated as Wonderware solutions. Wonderware System Platform is now AVEVA System Platform Wonderware InTouch is now AVEVA InTouch HMI Wonderware Historian is now AVEVA Historian Wonderware MES is now AVEVA Manufacturing Execution System InduSoft Web Studio is now AVEVA Edge For most customers, the software feels familiar because it is. The capabilities they depend on remain available, while ongoing development continues under the AVEVA brand. Where AVEVA Is Helping Organizations Today The industries that helped make Wonderware successful continue to rely on these solutions every day. Manufacturers use them to improve visibility into production and reduce unplanned downtime. Utility operators depend on real-time operational data to support reliable service delivery. In oil and gas environments, software helps teams monitor critical assets and processes across complex operations. Food and beverage organizations use the platform to support consistency, quality, and compliance requirements. What these industries have in common is a growing need to make sense of increasing volumes of operational data. That's where AVEVA's broader software portfolio begins to create value. Looking Ahead Technology continues to change, but the objective remains the same: giving operations teams the information they need to run safely, efficiently, and profitably. The Wonderware name may be familiar to many industrial professionals, but the future of those solutions is AVEVA. By combining proven operational software with newer capabilities around analytics, connectivity, and industrial intelligence, AVEVA is helping organizations move beyond simply collecting data toward using it more effectively.
