Transition to OCEAView from ThermoServer
Better for the change
Evolution of ThermoServer Solution
Essential Changes
Fundamental design changes have enabled us to drastically improve the OCEASOFT offering with a new-generation solution based on the latest long-range wireless communication technologies, while building on the experience and successes of the previous generation.
- Significantly easier deployment for connected monitoring solutions
- Long-range wireless connectivity for cost-effective site coverage
Looking toward the Future
In 2020, we announced that OCEASOFT would no longer be selling new licenses of the ThermoClient-ThermoServer solution. Through December 31, 2023, existing customers can continue to expand their sites as needed, and we will continue to provide them with legacy data loggers and sensors. However, we will no longer be pursuing new development on ThermoServer-ThermoClient.
- ThermoServer-ThermoClient / Cobalt 2 end-of-life December 31, 2023
- Fundamental new design changes leading to OCEAView™ Solution
It’s time to focus on OCEAView
For the past several years, our focus has been on developing a comprehensive and unified Web-architecture system that supports all our new generation LoRaWAN and Bluetooth enabled data loggers. The goal is to provide a solution that is easy for both users and administrators, while also respecting our customers’ security requirements.
The result is the OCEAView™ Solution, which replaces our Windows based ThermoServer-ThermoClient application. Released in October 2018, the new generation OCEAView™ Solution is designed as a unified platform that integrates all OCEASOFT data loggers moving forward, regardless of their underlying communication technology.
Above all, OCEAView is entirely based on our many years of experience with ThermoServer-ThermoClient and on customer feedback, offering a wide range of familiar features as well as numerous new features and flexibility. Users switching to the new system find everything they need quickly and easily.
The OCEAView web application is offered with SaaS access via the Internet, hosted on one of the world’s most robust, secure, and scalable Cloud platforms. We also provide it as a completely standalone On-Premises solution for use on highly secure customer sites. The Cloud version is ready-to-use, eliminating the need for customers to deal with software deployment and maintenance. Furthermore, it offers the benefit of automatic updates for patches and feature releases.
The On-Premises solution resides entirely on the customer’s own servers within their infrastructure and includes support for LDAP to facilitate user management. For on-premises use, the customer’s IT department provides the server and handles the software services based on a fully packaged solution provided by OCEASOFT. The two options are otherwise functionally identical and are backed by responsive technical support services.
- State-of-the-art Web architecture with familiar operation and numerous new features
- Ready-to-use SaaS access with no installation or deployment hassles
- On-Premises package for secure sites and LDAP
New-generation data loggers featuring long-range LoRaWAN wireless connectivity
Released over two years ago, Cobalt X1 and Cobalt X2 are now our flagship data loggers, respectively supporting two or four connected sensors, including a wide variety of wired sensors and Bluetooth wireless sensors. They do everything Cobalt 2 could do, and more!
Cobalt X products include many features requested by customers over the years, such as touch-screen operation and alarm acknowledgment (even while wearing gloves), four programmable high limits and four low limits for progressive alarm management, support for battery and USB power supplies, a dry contact input sensor, and much more.
It is worth noting that our Atlas and Emerald Bluetooth enabled products have also been improved and can be used either as data loggers in transport scenarios or as wireless sensors paired with Cobalt X data loggers. Our LoRaWAN-enabled Cobalt L3 and Cobalt ML3 (for mobile use) have been updated to support new features and integrate into the OCEAView Solution.
- Long-range LoRaWAN wireless connectivity
- Cobalt X data loggers with advanced functions
- Improved data logging for mobile/transport scenarios with Cobalt ML3, Atlas, and Emerald
Plug-n-play operation with OCEASOFT Smart-Sensors
- Automatic Smart-Sensor recognition on data logger and in OCEAView
- Calibration parameters stored directly in Smart-Sensor for easy calibration
Other developments
- New OCEAView Mobile app for iOS and Android
- Sensor calibration with OCEACal and Sensor Hub
