Solid product - Compatible with SQL and all SQL products. FTP Friendly.
What do you like best about the product?
Long following with IBM AS400. Has been implemented in other platforms. The direct access, and relational database layout. The use of "Members" is specific to IBM.
What do you dislike about the product?
Use of Memebers makes it difficult to query with Basic SQL. However, the platform on an IBM AS400 does have built in SQL. Not all of the standard SQL options are available.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Interface with other databases such as MySQL on Azure Platform. Cross warehouse sync with IBM SAN sync.
The database is a direct access, however, the issue becomes with Members and those accessing with SQL that have never seen a Member based DBASe.
