Viper Competitive Analysis
Why
have so many customers
purchased Omni-site? When
you are considering a
monitoring system for
your remote equipment
you realistically have
only three options...
| (1)SCADA |
| (2)Telephone Dialer |
| (3)or an Omni-site Solution |
Why would you buy Omni-site
over these more "established"
technologies? Let the
power of new technology
show you how to solve
an old, complex problem.
|
- The
Omni-site cellular service
fee is typically 30-60%
less than a land line.
- No
telephone line installation
costs or activation
fees
- No
long distance telephone
fees or contracts to
sign
- Convenient
web-based programming
and setup
- Superior
lightning protection
because there is no
connection to a phone
line
- Initial
investment is the same
or less than a traditional
dialer and Omni-side
devices will do everything
a dialer will do plus
much more!
(Super Complicated and Ancient
Data Acquisition)
- The average price
for a non-licensed,
wireless spread spectrum
radio system runs about
$9,800 to $12,000 (or
more) per site for a
simple monitoring application.
This includes all costs
- installation, engineering,
programming, etc.
- A typical cellular
Omni-site monitor costs
approximately $2500
per site, with Data
service fees at approximately
$300*/year. Based upon
this information, it
would take 24 years
to pay back even the
lowest cost radio system
($9800-$2500/$300).
It would take 34 years
to pay back the better
non-licensed radio system
($12,000-$2500/$300).
Realistically, the non-licensed
radio system will never
pay back because these
calculations do not
account for any service
calls, system modifications,
equipment failures,
time-value-of-money,
etc.
Omni-site's monthly
wireless fees are half
the price of ordinary
telephone line, and
even though SCADA has
no monthly re-occuring
fees, SCADA never pays
back because the initial
investment difference
is so great!
