Is Easytrieve® Costing You More Than It’s Worth?

Making wise budget decisions is desirable in any economy. When you consider software license costs, support costs, the expense of securing Easytrieve programming expertise, plus the many other costs associated with third party products, you should think seriously about consolidating languages by converting your Easytrieve to another language such as COBOL.

Consider The Savings & Benefits:

  • Reduce your software license costs
  • Reduce your support costs
  • Reduce your dependence on a third party product
  • Reduce your need for Easytrieve programming expertise
  • Reduce your exposure to mainframe “lock-in”

Datatek’s quick, cost-effective conversion process converts CA-Easytrieve® source code to a target language of your choice. The resulting converted code is well structured, maintainable, and is customized to meet the standards of your programming environment.

On average, our developers have over 10 years of experience in automated language conversions. For these reasons, we have one of the highest success rates in the industry: 96%. When you compare our success rate to an industry success rate for system migration/conversion projects of between 20-40% 1, you’ll understand why we’re confident that we can complete your language conversion project successfully.

Have More Than Just Easytrieve to Convert?

Easytrieve language conversions are often only part of a company’s overall attempt to optimize their IT operations. A larger project may involve multiple language conversions (Assembler, PL/I, COBOL, etc.), script and macro conversions, data conversion, database migration (hierarchical and/or relational), server consolidation, third party integration, other report writing languages (such as DYL-280® [CA Advantage™ VISION: Results™]), and much more. If this is true for your project, call a Datatek project manager today at 800-536-4TEK to discuss how our System Migration services can be of benefit to you.
