Team Developer 5.1 Customer Statement "Within our company we use several programs developed using different Team Developer versions (1.5.1, 3.1 and 2005.1). When Unify released its actual version 5.1 we initially decided not use it because of: • Issues with database access to Oracle With Team Developer 5.1 Service Pack 3, Unify managed to solve a lot of issues. We also decided to attend a MD Consulting migration seminar for Team Developer 5.1. We have learned a lot of tricks and tips important for a migration project and so we could compile our business application without problems." Fred Hobi |

Capital Insurance Group Migrates Its CAPCOM Application With Sabertooth
CIG had already converted the system once from COBOL to SQLWindows/Team Developer. The planning to transition CAPCOM to .NET and a multi-tier environment seemed daunting. Rather that rewrite the application from scratch, they considered an intermediate strategy of converting CAPCOM to .NET in order to obtain the dual benefits of a modern technology and a platform of choice to then re-architect the system later as additional tools and methods became available. Migration of CAPCOM using Sabertooth enabled CIG to rapidly adopt the Microsoft platform (Windows XP and .NET), allowed CIG to preserve the business model embedded in the software, minimized the expenditure of scarce resources necessary to migrate CAPCOM, minimized the technical risk of re-architecting the system, provided access to a broader pool of development and support personnel at a more affordable rate, and reduced the overall cost of ongoing operations and support. “Using Sabertooth allowed us to preserve the business rules in an object class, saved us money and reduced our development effort by several years. The Sabertooth team was an added bonus. Their professionalism and cooperation with my in-house staff is a refreshing contrast to earlier experiences with other product/service vendors.” Steve Posey Manager of Information & Technology Services at CIG Read the complete success story. |
