Austin, TX - April 14, 2008 - InduSoft announces Service Pack 4 (SP4) for InduSoft Web Studio. Based on customer feedback, Service Pack 4 promises to improve productivity, increase flexibility, and enhance the operator/machine interface.

For starters, SP4 enables a vastly superior interface for connecting to SQL databases and ERP systems. Operators and engineers can now execute any SQL statement from a Windows CE Client or an InduSoft Web Thin Client. Users can now create tables, insert records, and commit data using the standard InduSoft Web Studio interface within the limits of the applied security configuration.

This latest update also includes an enhanced interface for producing alarms, trends, and reports in the popular PDF file format. Customers can now optimize security, ensuring that final outputs cannot be altered by an operator or any other person in the process, enabling an ironclad audit trail.

According to Marcia Gadbois, VP of Business Development at InduSoft, this security enhancement is absolutely something to write home about: "We're seeing a huge demand for security, in general, throughout the industry. Enabling our customers to understand the activity on their systems with unerring certainty is invaluable. Executives and even plant supervisors need the confidence that the data they collect about systems and system users is accurate and unalterable."

One other notable enhancement is a built-in unit conversion interface. Now, any scientific unit can be automatically converted to any other comparable unit-Fahrenheit to Celsius for example. Gadbois explained the significance this way. "Among other benefits, our customers can now instantly convert from the American system of measurement to the Metric system effortlessly."
