What ProComSol does

ProComSol, Ltd is a privately held designer and manufacturer of HART and Foundation Fieldbus (FF) communication products founded in 2005 and headquartered in Rocky River, Ohio, with 1–10 employees. The company builds DD-based (Device Descriptor) communicator software/apps — DevComDroid (Android), DevCom.iOS, DevCom2000 (Windows), DevComFF.Droid, and DevComFF.Win — alongside a hardware portfolio of HART, FF, and Profibus PA modems (USB, Bluetooth, Bluetooth LE, RS232) and hazardous-area-rated mobiLink modems carrying ATEX, IECEx, FM, and CE certifications. It also markets HART-IP Gateways (4–16 channels), Ethernet-APL switches and adapters, update subscriptions, and cloud subscriptions for device-configuration storage.

ProComSol positions itself as a cost-effective, manufacturer-independent alternative to Emerson Trex, 475, and 375 handheld communicators, enabling field engineers and technicians to use existing smartphones, tablets, and PCs to configure, calibrate, and document HART and FF instruments in process plants. The company is a FieldComm Group member and bundles registered Device Descriptors, with FDT/DTM integration enabling use inside FDT container applications, and is also aligned with the Ethernet-APL Organization.

Revenue is generated primarily through one-time hardware and software license sales (modems $50–$4,200, kits up to $9,100), supplemented by recurring update subscriptions ($100/year, $500 lifetime) and cloud subscriptions. Distribution is global, executed through a distributor network (recently expanded with Rodest SpA in Chile and Sonepar India in 2026) plus a direct e-commerce website with a product-finder tool, software trial requests, and a quote-request form for enterprise orders. The company exhibits at industry conferences such as OTC (Offshore Technology Conference) as a key go-to-market channel.
