"We selected lookserver for Open Access as the handler we should use for two reasons. Firstly, it enables us to blend our OA-enabled applications seamlessly with our existing 5250 applications, so we can modernize one application at a time. We've already applied the handler to some of our homegrown apps and our JDE World ERP, but it's important that we can provide a consistent user experience without the user knowing that they are moving from OA to non-OA screens. looksoftware were the only provider that offered this."
"Secondly, looksoftware have used open standards to develop their OA support, so we are not locked into them in the future. Whilst we enjoy the partnership we have with these guys, it's important to us that we retain control of our applications, and looksoftware's approach offers this over the other providers we investigated.”
lookserver for Open Access is now generally available.
looksoftware is known for its leadership position in Application Modernization, releasing the hidden value in legacy software applications that contain many years of proven business rules and processes. Their software tools promote the reuse, extension, integration and development of core business systems running on IBM servers.
