Paessler Expands Industrial Monitoring with Siemens Edge Integration…

Event summary

Paessler's PRTG Multi-Platform Probe is now available on the Siemens Industrial Edge Marketplace as of October 6, 2026.
The probe enables unified IT and OT monitoring across PLCs, field devices, and IT infrastructure from a single PRTG instance.
The solution supports industrial protocols like OPC UA, Modbus TCP, MQTT, and SNMP, with sensors for SIMATIC S7 PLCs.
The probe is cross-platform, running natively on Debian, Ubuntu, RHEL, or as a Docker container.
A valid PRTG subscription is required for deployment.

The big picture

Paessler's move addresses a longstanding gap in industrial monitoring by bridging IT and OT systems at the edge. This integration aligns with the broader trend of decentralized, real-time monitoring in manufacturing and infrastructure operations. The cross-platform capability positions Paessler to capture a larger share of the industrial automation market, particularly in environments with heterogeneous hardware.

What we're watching

Adoption Pace: How quickly industrial operators will integrate the PRTG Multi-Platform Probe into their Siemens Industrial Edge environments.
Competitive Response: Whether competitors in industrial monitoring will accelerate their own edge-computing integrations.
Scalability Impact: The extent to which this partnership enhances Paessler's position in the industrial automation sector.
