There’s a lot of detail that I didn’t understand. The performance gains in CPU processing and in operational workflow are significant. However, if you’re doing daily input and output from the IBM i to both inside and outside sources that work in terms of Excel, XML, CSV, ASCII, Access, and many other desktop oriented file formats, it is very difficult for programmer and DB Admin level staff to keep up. We’ve found other tools like Linoma’s GoAnywhere product to be an absolute lifesaver to our department.

The bigger picture shows that investment into a MFT software solution would be a big cost savings for any company needing to provide third party transfer solutions with their clients and/or customers.

I see this a lot, companies employ specialist and expensive consultants to write scripts or use some type of propriety complex software which locks the customer in and then ramp up maintenance and consultancy fees over time.
