Yeah, just ask John McKown about his company's recent experience. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Allan Staller Sent: Wednesday, May 03, 2017 8:57 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Migration of Mainframe to other plat form.
From previous experience (with another vendor), Beware of any promises made by sales team (sales, tech marketing,....). If (whatever it is) is promised and agreed to, ensure it is written into the contract with an appropriate penalty for non-performance (up to and including cancellation of the contract w/refund). Of course it would be up to your legal team to ensure proper contract contents. I have seen to many cases of over-promise/under deliver to not be extremely wary of any such vendor.

Hey I know this here might be a bit of a nasty question to ask Have a customer who has intensions of migrate to another platform than IBM Mainframe, don't know what ? They have asked MetaWare to be the stakeholder in this . At the moment it is in the very very beginning of he process. I think this is an issue, that we all face right now . Does anybody have had experience with Metaware, and tell if they had success ? That is , did they succeed in full migration or partial migration ? Or was it all dropped ?
