Case Study: Enterprise S.p.A. achieves 20% improved time-to-market with OpenText (Enterprise Developer & Test Server)

Micro Focus Enterprise solutions deliver 20% improved time-to-market through shorter test cycles

Enterprise S.p.A., a leading provider of technology and organizational solutions for the Italian financial services sector (serving ~300 banks and 10,000 branches), ran its core Pr.E.M.I.A. application on customer mainframes and faced version-control issues, inconsistent client environments and slow, error-prone release cycles. The company wanted direct control over development and testing to make installations more reliable and speed time-to-market, but buying a dedicated mainframe partition was not cost effective.

Enterprise S.p.A. implemented Micro Focus Enterprise Developer and Enterprise Test Server with Micro Focus services in about two months, giving developers local Eclipse-based tooling, smart COBOL editing, isolated CICS testing and a Windows-based mainframe test environment. The distributed setup reduced merge conflicts and debugging time, shortened test cycles, improved reporting and team collaboration, and delivered an estimated 20% improvement in time-to-market.
