July 1, 2010, Calgary, Canada – Long a leader in providing software change management service for large computing centres Datab Software AB has earned ISPW's gold service level for customer support.

ISPW is dedicated to providing software that can make managing changes that span mainframe, Windows and UNIX environments simple to build and easy to deploy. The relationship with Datab has been ongoing for several years but with both companies having a focus on reducing costs while streamlining operations the combination of ISPW and Datab is proving to be a formidable force in how software is developed.

"Establishing a new price point where we can drive much more value for customers with large development sites was a major reason to partner with ISPW" says Clas Jacobssen, managing director of Datab. "We wanted the best product available to help mainframe and distributed programmers transition to a world where they can work together, free of the drudgery of the traditional change management bureaucracy."

The power of an integrated development environment has long been understood on distributed platforms. With ISPW the mainframe enters the 21st century by combining utilities, testing, approvals and deployment into a cohesive process that makes software changes faster, safer and more affordable than ever. ISPW adds power to 3270 "green screen" development by integrating the use of common utilities right into the interface itself. Coupled with an Eclipse based view of the process for a new generation, ISPW allows programmers to work from their platform of choice and eliminate many common sources of error in the process.

Advantages for complex IT installations include

• Exposing ALL change components to standard audit and approval processes
• Expedited, traceable implementation and roll-back procedures
• Automatic inclusion in corporate disaster recovery processes
• Improved project management through early conflict resolution and comprehensive visibility
• Reduced cost, time and effort savings, without the need to retrain or modify procedures

"By earning the ISPW Gold Seal support Datab has demonstrated that, not only do they have the technical strength to install and service the product" commented Paul Kuszyk, President of ISPW "but also they understand its importance for customers. A solution is only as good as the people that stand behind it and Datab gives us experienced professionals that can provide our customers with Tier 1 support".

Affordable, Flexible, Comprehensive - ISPW sets the gold standard for cross-platform software change management. Exploiting the strengths of familiar products and existing procedures, ISPW provides a comprehensive solution requiring minimal training at an attractive price.
