PC based industrial control to replace PLC 3

[henderd]

Our company is looking of a package which can replace current PLC distrubuted IO control system. We currently have issues with the programming difficulties/limitations. We are looking for a PC based system with higher level programming software, and a more mature level of support/library of programs. Any input is appreciated. Also an idea of product learning curve would also be helpful.
Thanks
Dave
