Nice! Which platform do you mostly use?
Our customers are mainly switching to S7-1500 with TIA Portal (unless special requirements like redundancy), but from my experience Siemens is rarely used in the US while Rockwell dominates the market. Do you agree?
At the moment I use mainly RS5K, and Studio5000 on CompactLogix, and ControlLogix, we still provide support for old systems on SLC's with RS500. Prior to this job, I used Siemens for 5 years and worked in the whole S7 lineup with Simatic Manager, and a bit on TIA, I am not a big fan of everything in one window tbh.

I agree, US market is mainly dominated by Rockwell. Though there is a lot of european equipment here on several industries, and it usually comes in some form of European PLC, Siemens, Wago, Beckhoff, etc.
I miss working on Siemens, S7 lineup is a workhorse for sure.
Cheers!
