Attachmate Corporation, www.attachmate.com, today announced the release of Attachmate Reflection 2014, a new version of its industry-leading terminal emulation software. Reflection 2014 provides enterprise customers with support for advanced security protocols and the Windows® 8.1 operating system, and features that make it easier to access legacy applications from mobile devices, empowering the workforce while still protecting critical data.
“From the early days of MS-DOS® to now Windows 8.1, and everything in between, our customers rely on Attachmate to stay ahead of the latest enterprise trends,” said Eric Varness, vice president, product management and marketing, at Attachmate. “As enterprises shift to a more mobile workforce and BYOD/BYOA becomes the rule rather than the exception, our customers can be assured that our products will evolve along with their ever-changing needs.”
“The Reflection product combined with Attachmate’s top-notch support and consulting services meet all of our unique business requirements related to host connectivity,” said Duane P. Morris, vice president of desktop support at a large commercial lender and a longtime Attachmate customer. “We have multiple projects in progress that leverage Reflection’s application integration capabilities, including VBA and Reflection’s new .NET API, that will automate key business processes and save the organization a lot of time.”
The top new features in Reflection 2014 include:
“Providing flexible, secure access to the information and applications hosted by mainframes continues to be a mission-critical business requirement – and this is true even more so today, given the disruptive trends in collaboration, mobility, big data, and cloud computing,” said Derek Brink, vice president and research fellow at Aberdeen Group, A Harte Hanks Company. “Solutions that provide terminal emulation and host access to these deeply entrenched, mission-critical business systems are as essential as ever to the modern enterprise, and perhaps more so.”
In addition, Attachmate has made available a research paper from Aberdeen Group which chronicles a global financial institution’s journey to reduce technical complexity and costs by streamlining their portfolio of terminal emulation solutions.
