Revision as of 08:49, 10 November 2022
This comparison is meant to help you to decide which of the data logging and weather serving embedded products fits your needs best. As every comparison it has some subjective element, especially when comparing with competing products. We tried to be fair, but might not highlight the specific strengths of competing products. If you suggest changes/additions, please drop us a mail.
Comparison below includes the per-minute permanent storage option for Meteobridge PRO, NANO SD and RPI we are currently finalizing. Having this Meteobridge RPI might be a very good upgrade alternative for Meteohub users, as Meteohub coming a long way from its start in 2007 is a bit outdated in new features and weather station support.
