Learn More > >OPEN DEVELOPMENT TOOLS
Bedrock products were built using standard non-proprietary open development software and components. This makes it easier to engineer high-performance, cost-effective control and monitoring solutions without the limitations of a proprietary system from a single vendor. This means you have the freedom to work with a large pool of integrators and programmers to achieve the best performance.

In addition to cost-effective control and monitoring today, Bedrock can help lower your long-term costs. Our IDE software is free, and it comes with free training, technical support, and firmware upgrades. Plus, most water/wastewater applications only require a few part numbers, so spare parts inventory will be lower. You also get a 5-year product warranty that protects your investment over the long haul.
