What Our Customers Say

Abacus was the clear winner when we were searching for an iSeries host. Giving up control of the heart of our operation was daunting at first but Abacus earned our trust with outstanding service and a proactive approach in keeping our technology up to date. Over the years there has never been a decline in service and the names of the people who brought us live are still the people who support us today. We may not be the biggest customer Abacus has but they treat us like we are.

Database Administrator of a national wholesale distribution company

The decision to move our mission critical compute resources off-premise was not taken lightly. Fortunately, we selected Abacus for IBM i and Windows hosting and support services. Abacus delivered on all of its commitments and truly operates as a partner with an unwavering focus on delivering outstanding services to us.

IT Director of an international chemical manufacturing company

We moved our AS/400 back in 2018, and after the move went flawlessly, the first comment I received from the GM at our Distribution Center was, ‘And why did we not do this sooner?!’ We immediately saw a performance increase in the applications running our DC daily operations (WMS). From an IT operations point of view, having Abacus host my AS/400 services has been a game-changer for our IT operations.
