Case Study: CA Technologies achieves competitive advantage in mainframe debugging with ColeSoft Marketing’s z/XDC

CA Technologies - Customer Case Study

CA Technologies used ColeSoft Marketing’s z/XDC to help debug complex mainframe software more effectively. Their challenge was working with difficult low-level code across APF-authorized programs, multitasking systems, SVCs, PC routines, exits, clients, servers, and subsystems, often without source code.

With z/XDC, ColeSoft Marketing gave CA Technologies a powerful debugging tool with clear displays, support for raw object code, and the ability to zap storage across address spaces and data spaces for “what if” testing. The result was faster troubleshooting, a better understanding of the local environment, and a competitive advantage, with the customer praising the vendor’s responsive support team as well.
