InstrumentStudio vs. ProModel vs. Python vs. SystemLink Comparison Chart

ProModel is a discrete-event simulation technology that is used to plan, design and improve new or existing manufacturing, logistics and other operational systems. It empowers you to accurately represent real-world processes, including their inherent variability and interdependencies, in order to conduct predictive analysis on potential changes. Optimize your system around your key performance indicators. Create a dynamic, animated computer model of your business environment from CAD files, process or value stream maps, or Process Simulator models. Clearly see and understand current processes and policies in action. Brainstorm using the model to identify potential changes and develop scenarios to test improvements which will achieve business objectives. Run scenarios independently of each other and compare their results in the Output Viewer developed through the latest Microsoft® WPF technology.

SystemLink eliminates the manual tasks when keeping test systems current and healthy. From automating updates to monitoring system health, SystemLink delivers key information that improves situational awareness and test readiness to help you deliver quality across the product lifecycle. With SystemLink, you ensure that software configurations are accurate, and that test equipment complies with calibration and quality standards. Leveraging an automation and connectivity platform, SystemLink aggregates test and measurement data from all test systems into a centralized data repository. Users have ready access to asset utilization, calibration forecasts as well as test result history, trends, and production metrics data to make proactive decisions on the capital expense, maintenance events, and test or product modifications.
