Overall Satisfaction with BMC AMI DevX
BMC AMI DevX is used very widely in the organisation to view/edit flat and VSAM files. Developers rely heavily on the ability to see data in a formatted fashion and modify if needed.
Pros
- Editing VSAM files with File Aid using copybooks
Cons
- File Aid DB2 could be improved for scrolling
- I don't know if we have measured any productivity improvement but absent this tool it would be quite difficult to work with VSAM
Our mainframe team is shrinking daily. ANd the developers who are left are mostly doing the same thing they have done for the last 10-15 years.
we used to use Compuware Strobe extensively to monitor performance
