Gadi, I would be happy to work with you to show you the differences in the products from our perspective. We believe that we continue to offer superior performance and that there has been no "leap-frogging" in performance. Among other things in recent years we have made significant efforts to exploit PAV and MIDAW technologies well beyond what a normal program could.
Although I am not in Sales, Contracts or Marketing, it is my understanding there should not be any significant difference in price. If you are willing I would like to run down what happened in this area but I would need something more to track that down. If you are interested, you can contact me offline. Sincerely, John Reda Software Services Manager Syncsort Inc. 201-930-8260 ________________________________ From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List on behalf of ??? ?? ???

How much of a hassle is it to replace Syncsort z/OS with DFSort? Will we be losing any functionality? Will we be gaining any functionality?
