Smart Rain purchased all assets of the Irrisoft and Weather Reach brands from Campbell Scientific.

Irrisoft started in 2001 and developed technology to use weather conditions to automate landscape irrigation. The company’s most successful product was the Rain Bird ET Manager, a private-labeled product sold by Rain Bird for about a decade. Irrisoft’s follow-up to that product was the Weather Reach Controller Link.

Smart Rain says the company sees Irrisoft’s value in capabilities like weather station network management, weather responsive irrigation automation and the process behind water schedule creation.

“I am impressed with the simplicity and reliability of the Smart Rain system and look forward to the integration of Weather Reach technology to further improve efficient water use and sustain beautiful landscapes,” said Steven Moore, president and founder of Irrisoft.
