Event Overview

The mainframe for the property tax system in Marin County, California, was outdated, expensive to maintain, and tough to integrate with other systems. So, the county migrated its existing COBOL code to an environment running Windows Server and the Microsoft .NET Framework. To accomplish this, it turned to Tiburon Technologies, a provider of automated migration tools based in Independence, Ohio. Costs were cut by 91 percent, customer support and business application development have increased, integration and extensibility have been enhanced, and the county didn't have to retrain a single worker. Attend this insightful webcast to learn how your organization can benefit from Windows Server and the Microsoft .NET Framework.
