Technosoftware offers three main products which support Windows and .NET development. Our products include: OPC Server Developer Studio DLL, OPC Server Developer Studio .NET and OPC Client Developer Studio .NET

These products can be purchased individually.

OPC Server Developer Studio .NET Source, OPC Server Developer Studio DLL Source and OPC Client Developer Studio .NET Source has the full source code included with the product. The binary version is functionally the same as the full version, but simply does not contain source code. Advantages to obtaining the full source code are discussed in FAQ 3.

When you buy from Technosoftware, you do not have to make the traditional, 'buy vs. build' tradeoff, wherein you give up source level transparency for ease of feature addition using a binary third party control. With source code, these product becomes an integrated and well-documented part of your application. Benefits of source code:

•  Full source code. No hidden 'Black Box' code.
•  You can step into our source code within your application.

You can order online through ShareIT, through fax or through phone.

See the "Ordering" section of the FAQ for more information.
