The "Connected with Kepware" designation signifies an ongoing partnership with
DGH to ensure DGH is aware of upcoming releases and technology, and will stay current
with Kepware developments in order to offer proven connectivity for their customers.
"DGH is an excellent example highlighting the value of our new "Connected with
Kepware" program," says Roy Kok, VP of Sales and Marketing for Kepware. "They have
been recommending our solution for many years and our new program brings our ongoing
relationship to a new level, by keeping them abreast of our technology developments
and working with them to validate our communications with their products for the
benefit of DGH customers."
"There are many Modbus Drivers on the market," explains David Reed, Product Manager
for DGH Corporation. We have worked with most of them, and have chosen to partner
with Kepware as they are clearly the industry leader in communications and have
developed an excellent product. Their KEPServerEX solution is OEM'd by most of
the software companies that leverage our sensor products. By joining the "Connected
with Kepware" program, we not only gain proven connectivity through a driver that
we can recommend, we can honestly say that our hardware is proven with the connectivity
solution already incorporated in most automation software products in our industry."
