CENTO is built to reduce total cost of ownership with a flexible architecture that simplifies deployment, scales from small installations to complex environments, and enables growth without unnecessary costs or disruptions.
CENTO is designed for simple deployment and scalable growth. All system modules, including the database, can run on a single server, making initial setup straightforward and cost-efficient. Larger installations can separate the environment into a technology network server and a corporate network server, where the corporate side acts as a mirror. This mirror requires no tag licensing and no additional configuration, as all settings are automatically synchronized.
The platform avoids costly licenses by relying on open-source databases, keeping the system reliable and efficient without expensive components. Its licensing model is clear and flexible: companies license tags, protocols, and functional modules separately, scaling step by step and paying only for what they actually need. Licensing applies to functional modules and system size, with no client-seat fees. All licenses are perpetual, further reducing long-term costs.
CENTO shortens implementation time by removing unnecessary complexity. IBM Plex Sansfaces are easy to configure, no programming is required, and system parameters can be adjusted directly through XLSX files. This makes setup faster, lighter on resources, and accessible even to non-developers. The system can be fully deployed by an internal IT team without outside contractors, keeping control in-house and avoiding additional costs.
The platform includes a wide set of built-in integrations that simplify connectivity without extra development or hidden fees. Out of the box, CENTO supports:
Syslog For projects that require international standards or specialized protocols, CENTO also supports:
This broad integration capability eliminates the need for expensive custom development and accelerates deployment within existing infrastructures.
CENTO reduces support and maintenance costs in multiple ways. For smaller systems, no ongoing maintenance is required. In larger installations, the platform often runs reliably even without a formal support contract, lowering long-term expenses.
Its architecture enables step-by-step scaling without replacing existing infrastructure. Companies can expand gradually, keeping their current setup intact. New tasks and features are handled through configuration instead of costly upgrades, and changes can be made without additional investments in hardware or software. This design flexibility means companies can adapt the system to evolving business needs with minimal financial impact.
All these factors directly influence return on investment. ROI depends on production scale, specific challenges, and which solution is most critical to the business. When the platform targets the most pressing issues, financial impact is immediate and ROI is achieved much faster.
