Our growing users

Darren Oliver, Garden Officer

“It would just make growing [in a polytunnel] so much easier, I don't see why you wouldn't use it. You know exactly what you're growing, exactly when to harvest. It's just simple.”
Alana Kluczkovski, Research Associate

“It would be really complicated to run all the parts of the farm without Ostara. Being able to change things remotely, the statistics, recording harvests, it’s incredibly helpful for our research.”
Molly Allington, CEO

“We chose Ostara for its ease of use. We are a small team so efficiency is key to us gaining the most out of our product trials. Ostara can generate graphs simply, easily & we can access the data in real time.”
Lucy, Research Assistant

"It's really intuitive. It didn't take me much time to learn to use it because it's so simple. It's such a visual programme, I can easily see what's happening on the farm so it's easy to understand."
