Turn history on for a tag and MACHHUB records it from then on. No separate database to license, size or administer.
On every edition, including Edge
Choose what is worth keeping tag by tag, rather than recording everything and paying for it, or recording nothing and regretting it.
Sample on a clock, on change, or only when a value moves more than a deadband. A temperature and a part counter do not deserve the same treatment.
Any historised tag is already a chart on a dashboard. Pick the tag, pick the window.
Export a period to CSV for the quality report, the audit or the customer who wants the numbers in a spreadsheet.

The question after a bad shift is always what changed, and the answer is only useful if somebody was recording.
The trial is the full product, with every module unlocked, and it restarts as often as you like. No licence key, no registration.
