Emperative

Emperative® delivers provisioning software products and solutions that enable optical, cable, Digital Subscriber Line (DSL). In practice that means connecting machines, sensors and robots to software that controls or monitors them.

Who is it for? Mostly manufacturers and operators. Alongside the main category they mention Digital Media, Robotics, Telecommunications and Wireless. They are a small team, 11 to 50 people, which usually shapes who they work with. You will probably talk to the people who build it, which is great until you need 24/7 support.

Emperative is based in Waltham, Massachusetts. Their site is emperative.com.

Before you commit, look at hardware compatibility, uptime, and support. A short pilot with your real data tells you more than any demo.

If you have worked with Emperative, tell the next buyer what you paid and what surprised you. That is the part of this page we cannot write.
