Frequently Asked Questions About Ignition Licensing
Find answers to the most common questions about pricing, the licensing model, and purchasing Ignition.
What is Ignition SCADA?
Ignition is an industrial supervisory platform (SCADA/HMI/MES) developed by Inductive Automation. It allows you to create operator interfaces, log historical data, generate reports, and manage alarms in an industrial environment. Ignition stands out with its unique licensing model featuring unlimited tags and clients.
How does the Ignition licensing system work?
The Ignition licensing model is server-based: you purchase a license for the server, and all clients (operator stations, designers, supervision screens) are included without limitation. You can choose individual modules or pre-configured packages (Basic, Pro, Ultimate).
Are tags truly unlimited?
Yes, every Ignition license includes an unlimited number of OPC, SQL, expression, and derived tags. There is no additional cost based on the number of tags, unlike most competing SCADA software.
Is there a free trial version?
Yes, Ignition offers a free 2-hour trial that can be renewed indefinitely. You can download and test the full platform without feature restrictions. The trial simply resets every 2 hours.
What is the difference between Ignition and Ignition Edge?
