We use the desktop Proveris client: what changes if we move to the web version?

[LogicAutomation]

We have used Proveris OEE with the desktop client for about two years on 10 machines. I see that new videos and forum answers mostly refer to the web version, with pages like work orders, kiosk and shift monitoring that we don't have.
Before talking to management I'd like to understand the change. Do we keep our machines, shifts and two years of history? Do operators need new training? And do we have to switch everything at once, or can some users stay on the desktop client for a while?

Thank you for using Proveris OEE for two years. Our focus is indeed on the web version, and all new features are developed there.
What the web version adds
Besides the dashboard, machines and reports you know, the web version includes work orders, downtime reasons with a cause and equipment structure, an operator kiosk for tablets, shift monitoring, role-based permissions, scheduled reports, an event log and the Production Analyst. It runs in the browser, so no client installation is needed on PCs or tablets.
Your configuration and history
The web version works with the Proveris server and its PostgreSQL project database. The goal of a migration is to keep your machines, tags, products, shifts and production history. Because the exact steps depend on your installed version, please don't start on your own: contact us first, and we will check your version and plan the update with you. A full database backup before any change is mandatory.
Step by step is possible
A gradual introduction usually works best:
1. Update the server side and start with the dashboard and reports for engineers and managers.
2. Introduce work orders and downtime reasons with one line.
3. Roll out the kiosk to operators after a short training on that line.
Training
Operators mainly need to learn the kiosk (start/end work orders, approve downtimes, enter wastage). Our documentation, the Academy videos and the new web video series help with this.
