We have used DRV Tech for years and love it! We convert to Xlsx, pdf, html,& RTF. We have outqs setup for monitoring & emailing. They also have a Sort tool that we use.
We would be lost without DRV Tech. We use their Message Flex tool also to monitor qsysopr, monitor if DASD gets too high, and if there is an issue on the weekend the person on call gets a text message as to what the issue is.

Subject: Reports / Data to Excel - DRV Tech vs. CoolSpools..
I've got a couple existing tools used for converting spool files to PDF, namely Gumbo's Spool-A-Matic and Brad Stone's Spool Tool and Mail Tool.
We've also made use of SQL2JXL to generate some excel spreadsheets directly.
Thinking a complete third-party package may be beneficial. Key
requirements:
- Convert spool file to Excel (removing page headers/footers ect)
- SQL Extracts to Excel
- OUTQ monitoring and electronic distribution
I've found DRV Tech's SpoolFlex products along with Ariadne's CoolSpool products.
Looking for feedback for either of those products along with recommendations for other products to look at.
Thanks!
Charles Wilt
