Iconics supports OPC, whether Matrikon, SoftwareToolbox, or Kepware, as far
as I know. You might ask Iconics what MES or middleware they have that has
the same functionality as Active Factory. Remember, Iconics is a direct
competitor with Wonderware, so it is highly likely that anything WW produces
won't be compatible with Iconics, and vice versa. Iconics has some very
interesting middleware so take a look.

possible to run MatrikonOPC with it, as I was informed that it will not be
possible to run Active Factory with Iconics? <
