Why should you switch from PI Process Book to PI Vision?
There are several reasons why you should consider switching from PI ProcessBook to PI Vision:
- PI Vision is a modern web-based visualization tool that offers a more user-friendly and flexible interface than PI ProcessBook.
- PI Vision allows for better collaboration and data sharing as it can be used by multiple users in different locations, while PI ProcessBook is limited to a single user on a single computer.
- PI Vision offers more advanced features such as dynamic displays, interactive dashboards and mobile accessibility that are not available in PI ProcessBook.
- PI Vision is actively supported by AVEVA, the company that develops the PI System, while PI ProcessBook is no longer actively developed.
Overall, switching from PI ProcessBook to PI Vision can improve your data visualization capabilities, increase collaboration and flexibility, and provide access to advanced features.
Migration PI ProcessBook Displays to PI Vision
After more than 25 years, the AVEVA PI ProcessBook, one of the leading faces of the PI System for many years, is retiring. This paves the way for the further development of PI Vision. A lot has happened since the introduction of PI Process Book. Technology, mobility, scalability and collaboration have evolved beyond what PI ProcessBook can offer. AVEVA has actively worked on the development of PI Vision and invested in PI Vision to provide our customers with a next-generation modern visualization experience.
We recognize that advanced planning is critical to your operation. The PI ProcessBook will go through several phases when it is decommissioned, the first of which is listed below:
- End of all sales: December 31, 2021
- End of security updates: 12/31/2022
- End of support: 12/31/2024

PI Process Book
PI ProcessBook is a desktop application from OSIsoft, the company behind the PI System, designed to create interactive process graphs and trends. It allows users to visualize real-time and historical data from PI servers and other data sources and create custom displays that can be used for monitoring, analysis and reporting purposes. PI ProcessBook provides a drag-and-drop user interface for adding various elements such as trends, value icons, text and images to create displays and supports scripting for advanced customization. It has been widely used for over two decades in industries such as manufacturing, energy and pharmaceuticals, but has been largely replaced by newer visualization tools such as PI Vision, which offer a more modern and flexible web-based user interface.
