Re: RDi vs SEU

Chuck

You could certainly get RDi through Passport Advantage, instead of as a licensed product. That might cost a touch more.

It will work fine with V5R4 so far as I know - maybe some functionality not usable.

Speed issues are not always the app - sometimes network connections, sometimes the V5R4 machine, sometimes your PC needs boosting or replacing.

You could always download the 60-day trial and see what happens - RDi performs much better than even the latest WDSC.

Good luck

Due to ERP software issues, I am STUCK at v5r4. I do have the WDSC product but tend to just jump into SEU because it works so quickly and I've always had speed issues with WDSC. so my question is...can I get RDi at v5r4?

I think that deal is still good John.

IBM announced it for V6 but it still holds good today.

But my recollection is the prices [for ADTS vs RDi] weren't that far

Interesting. I wonder how many folks came to IBM i for the first time
at 6.1 or later, and so didn't receive any special deals. I wonder
what that group of customers bought.

They also offer a trade-up from ADTS to RDi for a decent discount.
For us, as well as many shops, we had a lot more ADTS seats than we
would ever need. So we've traded up several ADTS licenses to acquire
RDi seats.

Damn. It's likely we would have qualified for that too.

IBM said they were unbundling things so they could see where the
revenue went and allocate development resources accordingly.

OK. I don't know if that's just hot air on IBM's part, but at least I
can understand this. I wonder if it's been long enough for them to
see where the revenue went.
