Tone Software, a global provider of management and productivity solutions for IBM System Z mainframes, has announced that its complete line of z/OS Mainframe technologies has been tested and proven fully compatible with the JES3plus V1R0 spooling subsystem. The JES3plus software was made available through Tone's participation in the Phoenix Software International ISV Partner Program.
Tone Software is a global provider of business computing software that addresses mainframe productivity, JES Spool management, dynamic STEPLIB and ISPF library management, cross-platform output management, TSO optimization and enterprise automation. Tone’s System Z solutions aim to provide productivity and savings benefits to organizations, and directly benefit the IT teams responsible for managing, automating, supporting, and maintaining the critical z/OS host systems and applications pivotal to their company’s core mission.
According to Tone, worldwide System Z users are actively choosing their JES direction?a decision that requires full support from key software vendors to ensure products perform and deliver value within the chosen JES environment. Tone's suite of z/OS mainframe technologies not only supports JES3plus but also JES2 and the legacy IBM JES3, providing users with full flexibility to choose the JES direction that best suits their needs.
