Automated Logic is bringing reliable and flexible building automation to customers with its new hosted and managed Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) offering, WebCTRL® Cloud. This new solution for the WebCTRL building automation system (BAS) brings deployment flexibility to customers while helping them scale for growth and reduce their support burden.

Automated Logic, a provider of innovative building-management solutions is part of Carrier Global Corporation, the global provider of healthy, safe, sustainable, and intelligent building and cold chain solutions.

Building automation server

The new WebCTRL Cloud solution is available for a subscription fee, providing a predictable cost of ownership. The subscription fee includes cloud-hosting, server maintenance, WebCTRL site reliability monitoring, database redundancy and backups, and software upgrades.

This eliminates the need for customers to install, configure, and manage a building automation server in the building. In addition, there is no costly IT infrastructure to maintain, and IT compliance directives for the server - including reliability, security, and uptime – are managed by Automated Logic.
