Months of implementation
time? Technology that requires weeks of classroom instruction?
Hundreds of thousands of dollars of software and new platform costs?
Who made this the norm for web-enablement of legacy applications?
Apparently not the customers paying the price.
That's why we built z/Web-Host™
for
mainframe users. With z/Web-Host, you get results in hours,
not months. z/Web-Host is the Easiest way to transform the capable,
back-end logic of your existing 3270 applications into fully
functional web-browser based applications. With z/Web-Host you can
take the old look and feel of tried and true applications and
rejuvenate them with pull-down lists, full color and graphics, even
a completely different layout altogether. All without touching a
single line of code in the original applications. Just take a
look at the kind of dramatic changes you can accomplish without
changing a single line of code: |

With z/Web-Host you can transform your 3270 screens into rich, web-browser applications that anyone can access and understand without any training. What's
more, you can use any Web design tool you like, including FrontPage, DreamWeaver, Hotdog and more, to layout the look and feel of your screens. Using z/Web-Host's Advanced HTML
Templates, you store the new layout with definitions of the data on the original screen, and z/Web-Host will merge the data dynamically to create the web-browser output. This
means you can even use your web-designer to layout the new look of the mainframe applications.
And now with the announcement of the
newest release of z/Web-Host with AJAX support your
Web-based applications can function like a Windows application,
with drag-and-drop, right-mouse click behavior, and dynamic
updating of data without refreshing. Your users benefit from
intuitive, rich applications in a browser. You benefit from
reusing your stable, secure and high performing mainframe
applications.
And since z/Web-Host
runs native on zOS-OS/390, z/VSE and VSE/ESA, there's no need to add extra time, cost and support issues by using additional platforms just to get to your mainframe data.
z/Web-Host works with any 3270 application, CICS or non-CICS. Plus, z/Web-Host doesn't use precious CICS resources, or require less reliable components, like CICS Web Support (CWS),
to function. And with z/Web-Host's Application Automation Feature (AAF), you can easily automate the interaction with your applications to combine multiple screens into one, pass data
between screens, even store variables and automatically enter data. This allows you to change the interaction with the user to an easier format, without any changes to the existing
application. With z/Web, we can also provide the ability to translate the pages into multiple languages to provide for an even wider customer base!
We chose the easiest and simplest implementation to ensure our software would work in nearly all environments. By not using Java or ActiveX components, z/Web-Host will work
with any browser, whether on a PC, Mac or PDA or web-enabled cell-phone.
And z/Web-Host works together with our
iCYA
product to provide full encryption capabilities for your Internet-enabled mainframe, so your data is secure. |

We could continue to show you, but touching is believing. Logon to a
Live Demo of z/Web-Host running on a mainframe at the illustro offices. Or better yet, visit our
Software Downloads
section and download the software for a FREE 30-day trial on your own system. Our software engineers will even help you customize a few of your own application screens just so you can see
your own data in web-action completely FREE. z/Web-Host also fully integrates with another product from our z/Ware family of Internet-enabling software,
z/XML-Host, providing complete Internet enablement for your mainframe data.
It really can be
Easy---life is too short for any other approach.
