Rocket Enterprise Developer is an advanced mainframe development toolset that enables developers to efficiently build, maintain, and modernize IBM mainframe COBOL and PL/I applications using an Eclipse-based integrated development environment. It streamlines development workflows with a fully featured code editor, compiler, debugger, and testing environment, all while offloading tasks from the mainframe to improve efficiency and reduce costs. Developers can work with IBM subsystems such as CICS, IMS TM, and JES, as well as access and edit mainframe data in VSAM, QSAM, DB2, and IMS DB formats. The toolset accelerates application testing with a built-in unit test framework, coding standards enforcement, and code coverage support, ensuring higher quality and reliability. Rocket Enterprise Developer also supports modernization efforts by enabling COBOL and PL/I applications to integrate with modern database platforms and expose core business functions as services, facilitating API-driven and cloud-based transformation. With its rich feature set and seamless integration into DevOps pipelines, Rocket Enterprise Developer enhances productivity and innovation while preserving the value of existing mainframe applications.

This listing uses a single pricing dimension based on the number of licensed users. You buy under a contract and choose how many users you need. Pricing scales directly with that count — each licensed user adds to the total. There are no separate tiers, instance sizes, or usage add-ons. Enterprise Developer for Eclipse is an IDE for building and modernizing mainframe COBOL and PL/I applications. All licensed users receive the same capabilities; the only variable that affects cost is user quantity.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What counts as one licensed user for billing?
A licensed user is one person authorized to use the Eclipse IDE. You buy a set number of licenses, and each authorized developer occupies one. Your count reflects the people who need access, not the number of applications, projects, or platforms they work with.
What does each licensed user get access to in this IDE?
Each licensed user gets the Eclipse-based IDE for building, testing, and modernizing mainframe COBOL and PL/I applications. All users receive identical capabilities. Cost changes only with the number of users, not with the features an individual uses.
How does my cost change if I add more developers during the contract?
Cost scales directly with the number of licensed users. Adding developers means adding licenses, and each new license increases the total. There are no tiers or bundled quantities, so the per-user rate applies evenly to every license you hold. Contact the vendor for mid-term license changes.
