PKZIP Enterprise Edition provided the company with enhanced file support--the capacity to handle much larger file sizes while decreasing transmission times significantly. “With PKZIP Enterprise Edition, we are now able to compress file batches to half of their original size, which is much more manageable for our ETL server. We are also experiencing wall-clock savings as a result of the increased compression,” said an Application Developer for the company.

The company is also pleased with PKZIP’s interoperability across all major computing platforms, ensuring that data can be easily transmitted from the mainframe to their UNIX servers.

In addition, the company was extremely satisfied with the customer and technical support they received from PKWARE. “They were very responsive and answered all of my questions during the deployment process,” said the Application Developer. Overall, the upgrade was fast and easy, deploying within a matter of days and provided the solution that fit their immediate need.
