The latest enhancements to Simaxx’s Estate Manager are set to revolutionise how facilities managers (FMs) and estate managers oversee their operations. One of the standout features is the integration of maps, which allows users to visualise all their sites on a single interface with Active Push Pins. Each pin represents a site, and by clicking on it, users can access a mini-dashboard that provides an overview of site performance. The map view can also be filtered according to chosen Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), allowing users to prioritise critical sites.
For those who rely heavily on site visualisation, Estate Manager can be set as the default Simaxx login view, ensuring that the map and its data are front and centre each time they access the system. This is particularly useful for facilities managers who gather the majority of their insights from this overview, simplifying navigation and decision-making.
Simaxx has also made significant strides in User Reporting. Leveraging SSRS reports via in-built SQL services, users now have the ability to create Custom User Reports. These custom reports can include a wide array of visual and data elements such as gauges, KPIs, photos, and tables, and are perfect for generating polished A4 documents for stakeholders. Once created, these reports can be exported as PDFs, printed, or emailed, offering flexibility and convenience.
Another exciting development is the introduction of Add-Ons, which allow users to embed external web-based content directly within the Simaxx platform. Whether it’s third-party applications, weather forecasts, or news feeds, these Add-Ons can be viewed without ever leaving the Simaxx interface.
One of the most powerful integrations Simaxx has introduced is with Tridium Niagara. This full toolset simplifies the process of bringing historical data from any Niagara-connected system into Simaxx. With over 975,000 instances of Niagara in use globally, this integration provides unparalleled connectivity to Building Management Systems (BMS) and IoT systems. Data is automatically tagged and ready to be used for analysis, ensuring seamless integration into the Simaxx analytics engine.
Simaxx Realtime Edge marks a significant leap forward in real-time process control and automation. By increasing disk access speeds and sampling rates, Simaxx can now handle larger data loads and process them faster, ensuring real-time insights and automation on-site. Enhanced security, load balancing, and data segregation further solidify Simaxx’s commitment to enterprise-level functionality and security.
The dedication to development during these challenging times is a testament to Simaxx’s commitment to its customers, with continuous improvements that will drive value into 2021 and beyond.
