    Energy dashboards have given us clear cost insights and guide data driven production decisions

    Reviewed on Jun 19, 2026
    Review from a verified AWS customer

    What is our primary use case?

    We primarily used the performance module in Insights Hub  for IoT projects, collecting electrical meters on-site and generating a performance dashboard on Insights Hub  to display electrical power, cost, and investment to our customers.

    We collected this data via Modbus and also purchased Siemens hardware, including the IoT 2050 gateway, to transfer shop floor data to an IoT LAN and then to the AWS  cloud, allowing the data to display on Insights Hub. We imported our local electrical cost per hour because we are located in China, enabling our customers to view the cost directly for every week, day, and even every shift for the whole plant, a specific location on the shop floor, or even just one machine.

    We also attempted to get production data to show the OEE on Insights Hub, but since we did not purchase the OEE module, we wanted to do some development ourselves using the performance module. In my opinion, this approach is not very effective, and though I have never used the OEE module, I believe using Insights Hub's OEE module would be better.

    What is most valuable?

    In my experience, the best features Insights Hub offers are its compatibility with Siemens hardware, making it very easy to implement Insights Hub if your shop floor automation control scope includes Siemens products, including Siemens switches, gateways, CPUs, and protocols. However, if you use something from a Japanese PLC manufacturer or anything else, it will be a challenge.

    Mahle is a big company, and for the Mahle plants in Europe, I believe most of their devices are Siemens, making it easier to implement Insights Hub than in the Asia region. In our Asia region, for example, if you want to get data from a machine center from a Japanese brand such as FANUC or Mitsubishi, we have to use an OPC solution between the shop floor and Insights Hub. We purchased Kepware to help us with the communication from Insights Hub to the shop floor.

    Insights Hub's impact on our organization depends on the region. In our European and American regions, it would be more positive than in our Asia region, where their plants are more supportive of the project and their transparency is better, but more or less, it is an improvement for our management. The management may shut down some machines that cost a lot to save on electrical costs, adjust their production plan to the night shift because the electrical cost will be lower than the day shift, and may even adjust their heater time to reduce unnecessary heater usage to save on electrical costs. Anyway, the plan is to save money using Insights Hub's dashboard.

    What needs improvement?

    I hope Insights Hub can support a UMS idea and solution in the future. If we have a UMS hub or data center, Insights Hub could integrate with our database, allowing us to share one data center regardless of whether it is our MES system, SCADA system, or Insights Hub, which would be more efficient for a global company.

    Insights Hub could connect to our UMS data center, which would eliminate the need to rebuild a connection between the shop floor and Insights Hub. Additionally, Insights Hub could support MES functions, allowing us to integrate with the production line and transfer the ERP  order from the ERP  to our shop floor, thus helping the ERP be more efficient. This would include performing a buy-off from the shop floor to the ERP and adjusting the production plan for the ERP production order for greater efficiency in our production planning. I hope we can achieve MES functions in an IoT solution such as Insights Hub.

    One point I am not so satisfied with regarding Insights Hub is the gateway, which I believe runs on a Linux or Unix OS but does not display well for our end-users. This requires us to ask for help and support from our IT department as we cannot perform what we can do with a Windows device, such as RDP to the gateway and monitor any issues inside. Sometimes we do not know the issue exactly and have to check the log, which is very complex for the end-user.

    For how long have I used the solution?

    When I was at my previous company, Mahle, I used Insights Hub to do some IoT projects for about one year.

    What do I think about the stability of the solution?

    Insights Hub is stable, but sometimes our shop floor device is not so stable.

    What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

    Scalability is better for Siemens hardware, but if we use Japanese hardware, the scalability is not as good.

    How are customer service and support?

    Mahle purchased the whole solution from Siemens, so we cannot get support directly from Siemens. We get support from the Mahle IT department, and they will contact Siemens. I am not sure if Insights Hub can provide a ticket system so we can raise tickets directly to Siemens for support.

    Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

    I did not hear about other options because when I joined Mahle, they already used Insights Hub.

    How was the initial setup?

    Insights Hub is a good IoT solution and cloud solution. To be honest, it has easy to normal implementation difficulty for the company, which can provide some help for our company to do modifications or adjustments.

    What about the implementation team?

    We purchased Insights Hub directly from Siemens.

    What was our ROI?

    The management may shut down some machines that cost a lot to save on electrical costs, adjust their production plan to the night shift because the electrical cost will be lower than the day shift, and may even adjust their heater time to reduce unnecessary heater usage to save on electrical costs. Anyway, the plan is to save money using Insights Hub's dashboard.

    What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

    Because I am in a technical department, I am not familiar with the price, cost, and licensing. I cannot provide this information because I am not at Mahle now.

    Which other solutions did I evaluate?

    Some companies have their own designed solution based on the Microsoft Azure  cloud, but the solution is self-developed.

    What other advice do I have?

    I have never used Insights Hub's AI function.

    If there is an AI capability for Insights Hub, I hope it can be used with human language to help our end-users do the integration, allowing the end-user to import their idea for which meter or which data they want on Insights Hub, so that Insights Hub can use the AI function to automatically build some logic behind to achieve this.

    I am not sure if Insights Hub can provide a ticket system so we can raise tickets directly to Siemens for support.

    My overall rating for this product is eight out of ten.

    Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
