What EXAKOM does
EXAKOM is a France-based software company, founded in 2003 and headquartered in Salon-de-Provence, that develops PLUTO Analytics, a 64-bit client-server platform for data aggregation, archival, analytics, and visualization in smart buildings and industrial plants. The platform ingests data from OPC UA/DA servers, PLCs, SCADA systems, professional historians (OSIsoft PI, Wonderware, GE Proficy, Siemens Desigo, PcVue, Panorama), SQL databases (SQL Server, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle), IIoT devices (Ewon, Sigfox, AEMP), and CSV/text files. It transforms raw operational data into KPIs, alarms, and automated reports through mathematical expressions and SQL queries, and exposes results via seven Angular/HTML5 web applications — Reporting, Monitoring, Analytics, Mapping, Vision, Mobile, and Task. A complementary PLUTO M2M line delivers a rugged remote-asset-management hardware unit (25,000+ deployed) and a web hypervisor for distributed device monitoring. The product is fully on-premise and no-code, positioning PLUTO as a sovereignty-friendly alternative to cloud BI tools for operations and facilities teams.
EXAKOM operates a hybrid go-to-market combining 100 certified integrators and 25 international distribution partners across 25+ countries with direct sales offices in France and the USA (Greentown Labs, Somerville, MA). Revenue is generated from perpetual or subscription software licenses, hardware sales, recurring support contracts priced at 20% of license value annually, training services ($1,500-$4,500 per cohort), project assistance ($1,250/day plus travel), and hosted services ($1,800-$3,800 per year). Strategic alliances include HMS Industrial Networks (Solution Partner for Ewon integration), Actemium/Vinci, Bintz technics, Prosistav, and NGE; the company also maintains industry memberships in the OPC Foundation, ADEME, ATEE, and Greentown Labs.
The company serves enterprise customers across industrial manufacturing (LAFARGE, INDUSTEEL, ARKEMA, INEOS, AIRBUS, SAFRAN), food and beverage (PEPSI, EVIAN, Danone via ACTEMIUM), energy and utilities (ENGIE, VEOLIA, AGUAS DE PORTUGAL, SYAGE), smart cities and public infrastructure (BORDEAUX, NGE), and other verticals, claiming 800+ references globally. EXAKOM targets the problem of fragmented, inaccessible operational data in plants and buildings, addressing data sovereignty and OT-network constraints that limit the applicability of cloud-first analytics platforms. With a 1-10 person internal team, EXAKOM's operating model is heavily partner-dependent, relying on certified integrators and technology alliances to deliver implementations and support across its multinational customer base.
