Our customers are enthusiastic about the role of TWG products in their
migration to Open Systems. Here's what some of them have told us:
 Bellcore
We wanted a minimum disturbance to users. Users were concerned
that if system looked different, too much training would be required.
Results are that users are very happy with the ability to be immediately
productive in the new environment, without a lot of training.
We made the scheduled migration date. Could not have done it without
Workstation products. Needed capabilities that vi and other products
didn't offer - only uni-XEDIT.
A. C. Nielsen
We wanted ease of migration. Wanted new developers to be
productive and reduce learning curve for programmers. [The product] accomplished
what The Workstation Group said it would do.
Products were very portable and efficient. We don't believe there
is anything else that will do the job.
Monsanto
The Workstation Group had the only product that could do
what we wanted in the time frame we needed.
Normal use of uni-XEDIT and uni-REXX is going so smoothly there has
been no need for support desk.
Chrysler
We added RS/6000 servers to the business unit. Wanted users,
who were familiar with ISPF, to feel comfortable and to be productive
quickly. uni-SPF put it head and shoulders above anything else.
More feature-rich than alternatives
Commonwealth Edison
Users were able to immediately be productive. No training
was required and users were delighted. They could function as they did
on the mainframe.
AT&T
Met criteria in an excellent manner. Users were ecstatic.
They are more productive as a result of uni-SPF.
Cost is "peanuts" when spread over the whole operation. Productivity
improvement was implicit in reduction of user discomfort with vi.
G. D. Searle
Got our users up on the new system instantly. The whole
migration resulted in $1M per year savings. Got applications moved in
4 months. On target and on budget. We figure we saved 1-4 weeks training
time per user.
Could not have done it without Workstation products.
Allison Engine
uni-XEDIT and uni-REXX have made the transition for the
users in performing design, analysis, data reduction, and reporting much
easier and quicker ... they provide the engineers with the same commands
and command structure on UNIX that they were familiar with on the mainframe.
[TWG products] contributed to the success in achieving Allison's cost
reduction goals even with an increase in demand and with excellent user
acceptance.
Public Service Gas & Electric
Other PSG&E location has users that had used the product.
They told us not to bother looking at other alternatives.
Data General
With the use of The Workstation Group's tools, organizations
can maintain a familiar systems interface for their users as they migrate
to open systems platforms enabling them to save a great deal of time and
money on retraining employees.
