  • Ericom Supports Windows Vista with PowerTerm WebConnect

    April 17, 2007 Alex Woodie

    Terminal emulation software developer Ericom last week announced the general availability of PowerTerm WebConnect 5.5.1, a new release of its Web-based emulation software that adds support for Microsoft‘s Windows Vista clients, among other new features benefiting Windows terminal environments.

    Ericom is unique among terminal emulation software vendors in that users can access traditional hosts, such as iSeries, mainframes, VMS, and Unix machines, as well as Windows servers from the same product: PowerTerm WebConnect Enterprise. In this respect, Ericom competes with traditional terminal emulation vendors, as well as with Citrix and Microsoft for Windows Terminal Services emulation, which gives it a special place in the market.

    In addition to Windows Vista support, the upcoming release of PowerTerm WebConnect will feature several other Windows-oriented features, including better printing functionality, through the integration with triCerat‘s ScrewDrivers technology for “universal printing” capabilities. triCerat says its ScrewDrivers software solves many of the printing issues affecting Citrix, Terminal Services, and PowerTerm WebConnect users, such as not being able to print, slow printing, trouble finding their printers, or the inability to use certain print features.

    PowerTerm WebConnect 5.5.1 users will also gain out-of-the-box access to RTO Software‘s TScale memory and CPU optimization technologies. RTO’s software enables users to isolate workloads and minimize the impact that “rogue applications” can have on PowerTerm WebConnect, Citrix, and Terminal Services emulation sessions. Specific benefits touted by RTO include reduction of page faults, improved execution of multithreaded applications, faster component load times, and faster user log-in times.

    Get More Out of Your IBM i

    With soaring costs, operational data is more critical than ever. IBM shops need faster, easier ways to distribute IBM applications-based data to users more efficiently, no matter where they are.

    The Problem:

    For Users, IBM Data Can Be Difficult to Get To

    IBM Applications generate reports as spooled files, originally designed to be printed. Often those reports are packed together with so much data it makes them difficult to read. Add to that hardcopy is a pain to distribute. User-friendly formats like Excel and PDF are better, offering sorting, searching, and easy portability but getting IBM reports into these formats can be tricky without the right tools.

    The Solution:

    IBM i Reports can easily be converted to easy to read and share formats like Excel and PDF and Delivered by Email

    Converting IBM i, iSeries, and AS400 reports into Excel and PDF is now a lot easier with SpoolFlex software by DRV Tech.  If you or your users are still doing this manually, think how much time is wasted dragging and reformatting to make a report readable. How much time would be saved if they were automatically formatted correctly and delivered to one or multiple recipients.

    SpoolFlex converts spooled files to Excel and PDF, automatically emailing them, and saving copies to network shared folders. SpoolFlex converts complex reports to Excel, removing unwanted headers, splitting large reports out for individual recipients, and delivering to users whether they are at the office or working from home.

    Watch our 2-minute video and see DRV’s powerful SpoolFlex software can solve your file conversion challenges.
