In the world of tightening spending and budget cuts, reducing annual host access costs is one of the most common drivers prompting organizations to look for alternative terminal emulation solutions, and fueling product replacement projects.
Open Text understands the complexity and the risk associated with these projects, and appreciates the importance of well-planned and controlled rollout, and the ability to minimize user productivity shock as a result of the switch. HostExplorer promises a smooth, quick, and transparent migration by mimicing the look, feel, and functionality of the replaced solution. It also supports automation scripts and macros to maintain the business workflow.
HostExplorer has benefited from many years of experience in replacing other terminal emulators. Our experience will significantly benefit organizations undertaking similar projects, and help them recognize significant ROI.
