Leave your current emulator on your terms
Many host access customers are being moved to new subscription products with yearly increases. If you’re facing a migration anyway, migrate to something better and fairer.
What we bring across
Your users keep their sessions, keymaps and habits. Your IT team keeps control.
| Coming from | Sessions and keymaps | How |
|---|---|---|
| Reflection Desktop | Imported | Session (.rd3x) and keyboard map files read directly |
| IBM Personal Communications | Imported | Workstation profiles (.ws) and keyboard files read directly |
| Extra! | Imported | Converted to Reflection format with the vendor’s own tool, then imported |
| Rumba and BlueZone | Rebuilt for you | We recreate your session and keyboard settings as part of the proof of value |
| Ericom PowerTerm | Rebuilt for you | PowerTerm support ends June 30, 2027. We’ll map your 3270 sessions before then |
Macros and automation that drive the emulator are reviewed in discovery. We start with groups that don’t depend on them.
Built around your renewal date
Never pay twice
Cutover is timed to your current renewal. Keep your existing support current until the day you move, then give notice inside your contract’s window.
Licence position check
Included with every proof of value. We help inventory installs and document actual use so you can leave cleanly, without audit exposure.
Side by side first
A real team runs WND Terminal next to your current emulator for weeks, against success criteria you set, before anyone signs.
Questions IT teams ask
Do we need to change anything on the mainframe?
No. WND Terminal connects with the standard TN3270E protocol your host already serves. There is no host software to install.
Will our users notice the change?
That’s what the proof of value is for. Keymaps are imported, defaults match familiar emulators, and your team works with it for weeks before you decide.
What if a screen looks different?
Open the same screen in both emulators. If yours displays it correctly and ours doesn’t, it’s our bug. The built-in flight recorder captures the data stream so we can find and fix it fast.
Does any traffic go through your cloud?
Never. The desktop app talks directly to your host inside your network. Licensing is checked locally from a signed file.
What about our current vendor’s licence terms?
Read your agreement and talk to your procurement team. We’ll help you document what you have installed and actually use, so the conversation at renewal is based on facts.
Facing a renewal in the next 12 months?
That’s the right time to run a proof of value. Tell us your renewal date and we’ll plan backwards from it.
