- The new CLAAS connect platform went live on 1 October 2024 in over 30 countries around the world and now offers CLAAS customers a host of digital solutions around Machine Management, Farm Management and Precision Farming on one platform. In addition, CLAAS connect provides a direct link to service offerings, dealerships and their digital specialists, who help to optimise machine performance, work processes including task planning and documentation, and to ensure the operational reliability of all CLAAS machines
The new digital platform created by CLAAS provides a direct link to all digital solutions in the CLAAS product world and connects farm managers, machines, employees and dealerships. From tractor to harvester to implement, from Machine Management to Farm Management, in the office, on your mobile, in the cab: CLAAS connect provides unparalleled transparency when it comes to machine deployment and working processes – enabling workflows and machine performance to be analysed and improved in an even faster and more purposeful manner. Furthermore, seamless communication via app and CEMIS 1200 with farm machine data available on the go simplifies fieldwork for farm managers and employees.
CLAAS connect is an integral component of all connected CLAAS machines. It optimises machine deployment and management, simplifies communication and saves time and money.
The new CLAAS connect combines digital solutions for Machine Management, Farm Management and CLAAS Service is in one user interface with one CLAAS ID. The CLAAS ID is issued on registration and can be assigned different roles in different organisations.
The advantage of combining CLAAS digital solutions on one platform is that work processes can be viewed holistically for planning, documentation and analysis purposes. This integration is also reflected in the design of the new user interface, which links all solutions and puts ease of navigation centre stage. “CLAAS can look back on over 25 years of expertise in the development of digital solutions for machines – especially in the field of connectivity – as well as for software and Precision Farming,” sums up Christian Radons, CLAAS Group Executive Board member with responsibility for Sales and Service. “Milestones include yield mapping on the LEXION and the AGROCOM, TELEMATICS and 365FarmNet software solutions, to name a few. Drawing on our years of experience and discussions with our customers, we have further refined CLAAS connect to create a user-friendly, cloud-based system which provides our customers and partners with access to all CLAAS digital solutions and services.”
Since the 2024 spring season, 200 beta customers in five countries have been testing CLAAS connect, enabling valuable practical experiences to be incorporated into the standard version. “When we first used CLAAS connect, we could see right from the start that it was very intuitive. And that is important if we want to carry on using the software in future,” is how José Godineau, beta customer from France, summed up his impressions. “The new CLAAS connect enables me to farm with far greater precision than before,” he concluded.
