Support

Progress distinguishes itself in the market by having a clear and defined software migration path. Progress Software not only provides support for the current versions, they also fully support previous releases. This ensures that Progress customers are not required to continually upgrade their software to remain eligible for support. In addition, the lifespan of each version is always clearly documented - allowing customers to carefully plan their investment in Progress technology.

Database Health Checks

We recommend a quarterly thorough examination of the database to ensure database integrity and consistency. To tune and restructure a database we examine data usage, data blocks, index blocks, scattering factors and other indicators. We then provide a comprehensive report of the analysis and recommend appropriate strategies.

Version Updates

Under the Progress maintenance agreement all Progress Software upgrades are free of charge. This ensures that customers can always take advantage of advances in technology at minimum cost.

API Support:

ANSI SQL-92

Progress 4GL

ODBC

JBDC

Embedded SQL/C

Platform Updates

Progress Software runs on a variety of different hardware platforms and operating systems. As part of Progress' 'Future Proof' philosophy applications can be ported to a different system without recompilation of code - resulting in significant time and cost savings. In addition, under the Progress maintenance agreement, there is no charge for Progress software platform changes.
