We deliver technologies that make industrial digital transformation accessible, customizable, and impactful, helping businesses across industries see, measure, and improve how their operations actually run.
We connect equipment from any manufacturer, bridging legacy systems and modern software so you are never locked into a single vendor. The ControlCom Edge Server ships protocol clients for Modbus, OPC-UA, BACnet, and EtherNet/IP and publishes to the platform over MQTT, so a decades-old PLC and a new power meter land in the same system of record.
Our team has spent years on plant floors with PLCs, SCADA, and field devices. We build for the real world because we have worked in it. That is why the platform assumes connections drop, meters drift, and utility bills contain errors: on real sites, they do.
We start with the problem and the equipment, then build the software. Engineering and code together, not one bolted onto the other. The same design runs one lift station or a hundred facilities, so you can start with a single site and a handful of meters and grow from there.
We start with the problem, understand the equipment, and build the solution. Bridging the physical and digital worlds is the work, not an afterthought.
ControlCom Technologies, LLC is a US-based company built by engineers and system integrators who also write code. We have spent years troubleshooting PLCs, configuring SCADA systems, and connecting equipment that was never designed to talk to anything outside its own panel. That experience taught us what was missing, so we built it: ControlCom Connect, a vendor-neutral platform for monitoring and analytics across any manufacturer's equipment, and the ControlCom Edge Server, the on-site runtime that connects to that equipment and keeps collecting even when the cloud is unreachable. The platform follows one workflow from end to end, Connect, Collect, Store, Analyze, Visualize, Report, Integrate, and AI, and every stage is documented step by step on our documentation site. Our platform comes from people who understand both the hardware and the software, because that is what it takes to bridge the gap.
The company was founded and is led by Catalin Negru, who still works across the platform, from HMI templates and internal tooling to the commercial and operational side of the business. Drew Hennemuth leads business development, working with the industrial teams that adopt ControlCom Connect. Both write on this site under their own names: Catalin on real-world facility monitoring, energy management, and the practical side of running an industrial IoT platform, and Drew on platform reliability and what continuous, outage-resilient monitoring means for the operations that depend on it. When you book a demo, the person on the call is an engineer who has run the platform, not a script.
Experience claims are easy to make and hard to check. Here is what the team has built and shipped, all of it written up in public.
On October 20, 2025, Amazon Web Services suffered an outage that lasted roughly 15 hours and disrupted thousands of services worldwide. Edge Servers at our customers' sites kept capturing and storing operational data locally for the entire window, then synchronized everything back automatically once AWS recovered, with no manual intervention and no service dispatch. While operators on cloud-only systems were left with data gaps, our customers kept a complete, ordered record of everything that happened at their facilities. We published a first-hand account of the outage and our response two weeks later.
ControlCom Connect moves more than 300 million data points a month, arriving at 1,000 to 10,000 points per second from thousands of assets. The stack is PostgreSQL with TimescaleDB at both the edge and the cloud, which is why your data stays reachable with plain SQL and exportable at any time: if you ever leave, you take everything with you. Tiger Data, the company behind TimescaleDB, published its own case study on the architecture and those numbers.
The case studies on our blog name the numbers. A healthcare facility used its own metered record to overturn a utility bill that would have cost it more than $160,000. A hospital handed an engineering firm a complete energy study on the spot, instead of running the usual monitoring project that takes 3 to 6 months and costs up to $30,000. Another hospital discovered backup generators that had been left in manual mode after service. None of these were the reason the platform was installed. They are what showed up once the data was being collected.
The same habits that keep a plant running apply to running a platform: control access, encrypt everything, and never depend on a single link staying up.
ControlCom Connect holds a SOC 2 Type II report, available under NDA on qualifying plans. Data is encrypted with AES-256 at rest and TLS 1.3 in transit, and the edge agent connects outbound only, so deploying it opens no inbound firewall ports on your network. The full posture, including MFA and role-based access, is documented on our security page. We work through system integrators and partners rather than around them; many of us have been on that side of the table. And if you want to verify any claim on this page, contact us and ask for the source.
