Core offering

Sensorsoft designs, manufactures, and sells a portfolio of intelligent environmental monitoring sensors (temperature, humidity, flooding, power failure, dry-contact/voltage, and relays) that connect via RS232, USB, Ethernet, WiFi, and 3G/4G cellular, together with monitoring software (Remote Watchman Enterprise, Remote Watchman Client, Sensorsoft Device Server, SCOM) and standalone network appliances (Sensorsoft Alert) for commercial B2B customers needing 24/7 alerting on critical assets in telecom, healthcare, pharmaceutical, and other regulated environments.

Product overview

Sensorsoft designs and manufactures environmental monitoring solutions primarily for the commercial B2B market. The product portfolio consists of three interconnected layers: (1) a broad line of intelligent environmental sensors (temperature, humidity, flooding, power failure, dry-contact/voltage, relays) that use the proprietary Sensorsoft Device Protocol (SSDP) with auto-discovery capability; (2) software platforms — Remote Watchman Enterprise (RWME) 2020 (web-based Windows monitoring software), Remote Watchman Client (RWMC), Sensorsoft Device Server (SDS), SCOM (for Linux/UNIX), and the Sensorsoft Graphing Tool (SGT) for data visualization; and (3) standalone hardware appliances including the Sensorsoft Alert network appliance (1/4/8-port models) and SSA71xx Secure Device Servers. Products communicate over RS232, USB, Ethernet, WiFi, and 3G/4G cellular networks. Sensorsoft also resells compatible third-party hardware including Axis network cameras and the USR Courier M2M 3G cellular modem.
