Ledgnd, the renowned Dutch independent lighting consultant and data integrator for greenhouse horticulture, has announced a major update to its software and data platform, MyLedgnd. This upgrade, which features a new interface and an updated color scheme with shades of green, aims to increase user-friendliness for growers significantly. “The most important thing is that the user-friendliness for growers is further increased,” said Maarten Van Bemmel, product owner of MyLedgnd.
Enhanced User Experience
The redesign, which took several months and was based on feedback from existing users, reflects Ledgnd’s commitment to continuous improvement. The revamped MyLedgnd platform allows growers to gain a clearer understanding of various climate factors and their impacts on crops. With the data collected and analyzed by MyLedgnd, growers can now fine-tune their cultivation strategies more effectively.
Key Features of the Update
- New Interface and Design: The interface has been overhauled with an updated color scheme that includes shades of green, making it visually appealing and intuitive.
- Improved Data Transparency: MyLedgnd provides a transparent view of greenhouse data, helping growers monitor and manage climate conditions and crop health.
- Integration Capabilities: The platform now allows easier linking to other systems, giving users control over which data is imported. This ensures seamless integration with existing greenhouse management tools.
- User Empowerment: The update emphasizes empowering users to manage and utilize their data independently, reducing reliance on external support.
Van Bemmel highlights the importance of proper communication of data through innovative techniques such as sensors and APIs with climate computers. “It’s important that all this information is properly communicated, and the grower retains an overview,” he said.
User-Centric Development
Ledgnd’s approach to developing MyLedgnd is deeply rooted in customer feedback. “We constantly ask our customers what the next steps are that they want, which integrations they find important, and what else is missing,” Van Bemmel explained. This customer-centric development ensures that new functionalities are introduced based on actual user needs, making the platform logical and not overly complex.
With the online dashboard, graphs, and models, growers can gain valuable insights into their greenhouse climate. The platform’s design allows users to extract maximum value with minimal explanation, though Ledgnd provides assistance in data interpretation when necessary.
The significant update to MyLedgnd marks a new chapter in greenhouse management, providing growers with powerful tools to optimize their cultivation strategies. By enhancing user-friendliness and data integration capabilities, Ledgnd ensures that growers can independently manage their data and make informed decisions. This update reinforces MyLedgnd’s position as a cutting-edge tool in the evolving landscape of greenhouse horticulture.
