Merbon Product Family & Comparison

End of Sales Notice: As of 2025, sales of Merbon SCADA have been discontinued. Existing projects are encouraged to upgrade to Mervis SCADA to ensure long-term support and regulatory compliance.

What is Merbon?

Merbon is a product family from the Domat company, a long-standing partner of ours. Historically, Merbon SCADA software was built using licensed technology from the Mervis platform.

While Domat remains a premier provider of hardware and control solutions, the development paths for the SCADA software have diverged. Merbon SCADA is based on an earlier generation of the Mervis core, whereas Mervis SCADA has continued to evolve with new enterprise features and security standards.

The Value of the Source Platform

For customers looking for the most robust software solution, returning to the source platform—Mervis—offers distinct advantages. Because Mervis SCADA is under active, primary development, it includes critical modernizations that are not present in the Merbon branch:

Lifecycle Status & Migration

Moving from Merbon to Mervis is not a platform switch—it is a natural upgrade.

Since the underlying technology is shared, your existing logic and data structures are largely compatible. Upgrading to Mervis SCADA simply unlocks the latest features and ensures your project meets the strict security requirements of the upcoming EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA).

We work closely with our partners to ensure users are supported. If you are a current Merbon user, Energocentrum provides dedicated assistance to help you upgrade your projects to the modern Mervis standard. Please contact our support team for guidance on migration and licensing.
