IDC investigated more than 440 businesses around the world that have either modernized on IBM Z or IBM i or replatformed, and compared them on a large number of factors—and the results are in.

Research from IDC proves that organizations that depend on IBM® i or IBM Z® platforms can drive legendary outcomes from their “legacy” systems with less cost associated to staffing, software, and disruption than when moving to an alternate on-premises solution or to the cloud, even when investing the same amount in new hardware.

As IT teams like yours face reduced budgets and resources, getting the most from your existing systems to continue to prove value and meet rapidly changing market demands is imperative.

By creating an innovation layer, you can:

• Stay at the forefront of your market by leveraging the latest technology to rediscover and modernize mission-critical platforms—without replatforming
• Reach new levels of performance and scalability by implementing agile development while running more cost-efficiently
• Attract and retain top talent by improving your working environments
• Transform user experiences to drive high-quality digital experiences and empower your developers and IT team
