Improves disaster recovery processes and offers an efficient CPU cycle optimization

Using BMC Data Management for IMS and DB2 on z/OS has greatly improved our database administration tasks. Although we don't test the database before production, we have experienced benefits in disaster recovery situations and capacity management. For instance, when facing capacity issues during peak transaction times, I've been able to quickly allocate additional resources to ensure smooth operations. This has been crucial, especially during times when the demand surges, such as peak flight hours.

Provides users with an initial setup phase, which is fairly simple to manage

I don't know what could be improved in terms of what my company was used to previously or after moving over to Rivery. I have not had much experience with platforms other than Rivery. For me, Rivalry was a way to step up from what we used. To be honest, I am not really sure what improvements could be made in Rivery. Pricing is a little steep for smaller organizations, I would say. The product's pricing model could be a little bit better. I am not aware if there are additional packages for smaller organizations, but if there are no packages available, then maybe that would be a good way to introduce something new in the tool.

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"BMC Data Management improved our data recovery process by simplifying it."

"I have worked with DB2's great features in the last five years. The IDAA feature transformed the vision of warehousing, business analytics, and big data at my bank. Besides the mainframe, I saw that this solution was evolutionary. It gives real-time information."

"Connects to many APIs in the market and new ones are being added all the time."

"The solution's most valuable features are that it is quick to connect and simple to use."

Cons

"DB2 is a hard tool to grasp. It's hard for users to learn how to use it. It's not easy to see how it works."

"One area for improvement with this product could be in providing clearer guidance and tools for disaster recovery planning and execution."

"Lineage and an impact analysis or logic dependency are lacking."

"Pricing is a little steep for smaller organizations, I would say. The product's pricing model could be a little bit better."
