The World's Leader in Automation Software
Any company can claim to be the industry leader. But Wonderware has the facts to prove it. Our applications are hard at work in more than 150,000 installations worldwide - the largest installed customer base in the industrial automation marketplace,
representing a 30% share of the MMI market. Wonderware is at work in the brew house and filler lines at Miller Brewing Company;
as the standard for SCADA systems in the DaimlerChrysler plant in Rastatt, Germany; controlling the baggage sortation systems at the Denver International Airport; in the disk drive operations for Western Digital's Singapore plant; in breweries and food processing,
in oil and gas refineries and in thousands of other challenging settings around the world. In fact, 85 percent of today's Fortune 100 companies use Wonderware. And that number is even higher in the manufacturing sector. Which makes us the undisputed leading independent supplier of Windows-based software for the industrial automation marketplace.
