COBOL-IT chooses COBOL-WORKS GmbH as distributor for the German market.

COBOL-IT has chosen COBOL-WORKS GmbH as distributor for German speaking countries.

COBOL has always been a language for mission-critical business applications. That has been true since the early days of computing and it is still a valid statement. But nowadays there are new environments that can host the applications, and with the use of COBOL-IT, mission-critical business applications can be brought into the world of Open Source.

This is a message that has generated a lot of interest and demand from the German market. Providing the COBOL software to host mission-critical applications requires good service and support. With COBOL-IT’s selection of COBOL-WORKS as a distributor and Technical Hub, the German market will benefit from an experienced support and service staff that knows COBOL, and has years of experience serving business applications operating in open environments.

“With COBOL-WORKS as distributor and service provider we are confident that we have a partner that can listen to and service the important German market. This is a dynamic, and demanding market, which has always shown a great deal of interest in using Open Source solutions as a way of running cost–effective and reliable applications.”, says Stephane Croce CEO at COBOL-IT.

“We see significant potential for growth with this business model, particularly for larger organisations who have large investments in COBOL assets, and who wish to protect these assets without being subjected to unpredictable costs for COBOL licences. Our local presence will help to provide the security that companies with strategic interests in COBOL require”, says Toralf Kandera General Manager at COBOL-WORKS.
