CODESYS and LogicLab are very similar in programs developing, mainly we suggest LogicLab due its cheaper costs (The CODESYS’s royalties are more expensive). About the features there is no great differences between the two environments, we develop functions and FBs mainly for LogicLab because it’s based on our proprietary operating system, so we obviously know it well than CODESYS and we can obtain the better results.
Sincerely CODESYS has the WebVisu facility that makes easy to create web pages and make possible to display and set program variables by using graphics objects. But unfortunately the WebVisu is based on Java and we have experienced some trouble with security. It’s difficult to display the page because the browser reports many security alerts and sometime (Specially on the smartphones) it’s not possible to display the page.
As you pointed out in the LogicLab at the moment there is not any facility to develop web pages, but it’s possible to design pages by using standard web editors. If in the source page special tags are written (They are written as HTM comment) the SlimLine HTTP server when sends the page to the browser automatically changes the tags with the variable values (Here the manual abstract).
