Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Envirosuite

  • Envirosuite publishes no price; the site shows no rate, no per site fee and no minimum, and routes buyers to sales or a demo
  • The offering combines software with physical monitoring hardware, so a deployment requires buying or installing sensor equipment for air, dust, odour, noise, vibration or water
  • Coverage is per monitored parameter, so adding noise or water monitoring to an air quality deployment is a further purchase

Promine

  • Requires AutoCAD or BricsCAD license for use, adding to total cost of ownership
  • Limited standalone capability compared to all-in-one mining software
