Why Choose Forecross?

...Because our Data Conversion is superior to anything the competition has to offer, bar none.

- Forecross can perform an automated data analysis - long before the data conversion phase. This unique process identifies what and where any bad data is hiding in the database giving your staff a head start in cleaning up this data. You need this unique process because:
1. Based on your specific rules, it identifies data that either you or DB2 consider to be invalid
2. It allows the Forecross schema conversion process to accommodate situations where cleansing may not be appropriate
3. It allows the Forecross data conversion process to automatically cleanse data according to your rules.

- A guarantee that no data will be left behind at extract time. The approach our competitors use for data extraction can easily overlook data records under certain conditions. Don’t wait until you’re in production to learn you’ve lost critical data.
