FactoryTalk® Optix Studio™
 Options

FactoryTalk® Optix Studio™
 is available in two options, Standard and Pro.
  • FactoryTalk® Optix Studio™
     Standard is a locally installed design editor and lets you create and deploy applications from your device. Standard is available at no cost and provides editing tools for designing HMIs with no activation or entitlement required.
  • FactoryTalk® Optix Studio™
     Pro is a cloud-based editor that can run in a web browser or as a locally installed application.
    FactoryTalk® Optix Studio™
     Pro requires a subscription, based on a user entitlement.
    FactoryTalk® Optix Studio™
     Pro provides technical support and features that require a cloud connection, such as cloud-based code repository integration, cloud-hosted version control, remote deployment (requires
    FactoryTalk® Remote Access™
    ), and multi-user collaboration.
    IMPORTANT:
    FactoryTalk® Optix Studio™
     Pro requires an entitlement that you must allocate to an organization.
    FactoryTalk® Optix Studio™
     Pro entitlements are then assigned to organization users. See FactoryTalk Optix Studio Entitlement.
