Customer Comments on IBM i Access for Web
Gateway Technical College
"Gateway Technical College is a member of the IBM i Scholars Program. We have IBM i Access for the Web and HATS LE installed at the College. Students use both products to access our IBM i for programming classes. They particularly like the Run SQL portion of IBM i Access for the Web. Given the choice of writing Query400 database queries or using the SQL Wizard, IBM i Access for the Web is a Winner! They love the ability to create PDF's and save them in their personal folder. I like it because it is easy for me to track their work.
I administer and have installed the software on our Model 800. It was easy to install both products on one WebSphere instance. Even on our small IBM i, the response time is great. I have ordered WebSphere V6 and will be installing and configuring it in the near future.
Thanks IBM."

"I read the article in the IBM i 400 Experts Journal (*). This article was very informative and inspired us here at Guelph Hydro to implement the product. We had the product up and running in a day and configured our security using the tools available with the product. I can confidently say that this product is definitely "cool," and we have already taken advantage of the powerful features of this product. This is a definite "got to have" product for any serious IBM i shop.
You can give your development team two thumbs up on this one. Thanks again!"

"I recently attended a number of IBM i Access for Web sessions at COMMON in San Antonio. I am really impressed with a product that enables a look and feel familiar to even the newest user in our company. I am especially interested in the 5250 screen conversion, since the green-screen interface has made some users question the value of these applications compared to newer GUI-presented apps.
I was also excited by the GUI-based spool file access and the ability to create PDF files to fax or print to PC printers - something that several of my users will really appreciate.
IBM i Access for Web is a great addition to the IBM i Access Family, and I am looking forward to implementation.
Congratulations and thanks to the to the Access team - you make my job easier out here!"

"I started using IBM i Access for Web a year ago and am very pleased with it, and I am appreciative of the improvements that keep coming.
The function of IBM i Access for Web that I use THE MOST is -- without a doubt -- the ability to create and email PDF attachments from standard spool files. Another very useful feature has been the SQL Wizard. Six months ago I didn't know the basics of SQL and now I am generating simple queries -- sometimes to a spreadsheet and sometimes just a list will do. I especially like the capability of authorizing "shortcuts" that allow users with normally restricted access to be able to request output resulting from SQL queries, since in our shop, few users have command line access and thus no access to data. I am looking forward to trying out the new dynamic query capabilities as well. A third area that is most helpful to me is the ability to provide access and support to remote users without needing to provide any software for installation on their PCs.
I've "tried it and like it"!"
