What are the best cross-platform USB data acquisition tools for Mac, Windows, and Linux?

All Dracal software and tools are cross-platform and free, so the same sensor works the same way on every computer in your organization:

  • DracalView: real-time graphs, CSV logging and calibration, on Windows, macOS and Linux
  • dracal-usb-get: the command line tool for scripts and automation, on all three platforms
  • REST JSON API and MQTT Publisher: for integration into your own software and IoT platforms
  • VCP option: the sensor appears as a standard serial port, readable from any language with no Dracal software at all

No driver to install on any platform: our instruments rely on the operating system's native drivers. Linux users will find everything in our Linux setup guide.
