versiondog - Data management for automation

Published on : Tuesday 30-11--0001

SmartCompare

With versiondog SmartCompare it only takes a few clicks to get a detailed comparison of any two versions, and an easy-to-understand analysis of differences. It can even display the results of a comparison graphically in the same familiar way as the editor that you use for the project.

Automatic backup

versiondog not only runs regular automated backups, it can even make detailed comparisons between the online program and the offline project. That means you can be certain that your automated device programs are current and correct. You always know exactly what version is running in production, and setpoints and parameters can be checked and restored if necessary at any time.

Quality management

Make versiondog the cornerstone of your quality management system and ensure that your documentation always meets certification standards such as GxP, FDA 21 CFR 11, VDA 6.x and ISO 900x. Project data for all versions is stored centrally and available at any time, and full annotation means that all changes are quickly and easily comprehensible.
