We are a long time Syncsort customer. Our contract with them will be up for renewal soon, so this is a good time to consider the competitors. Does anyone have experience migrating away from Syncsort you'd care to share? Or if you looked into switching but decided not to, I'd be interested in knowing what stopped you?
It used to be the case that SORT consumed more CPU cycles than any other application in the average shop. I wonder if that's still a true statement. I read here (http://www.syncsort.com/newsdocs/press/sspress8.htm) that SyncSort now runs on zIIP engines. Is that also true of their competitors?
