Reliable Migration Services

Reliable Computer Sales, LLC, is a particularly valuable resource for IBM mainframe users who are planning to update their systems and want to move ahead quickly, economically and smoothly without sacrificing ongoing production.

We can show you how z990, z900, IBM z890, z800 and Multiprise 3000 systems can save you money, expand your computing horizons and allow you to preserve the software, databases and knowhow on which your operations are based.  For instance, users migrating from Multiprise 2000 or 9672 processors to a z890, z800, or Multiprise 3000 may qualify for special software pricing.  When you give us the basic facts about your current situation and your plans, we will advise you about all the special offers for which you qualify.

Current IBM Series z servers and current software will help you bring your databases and applications up to date.  They will provide your organization with assured continuity of all your information processing services.

We will work with you to develop the most complete and accurate plans possible.  We enable you to understand the impact of hardware, software, disk and peripheral upgrades on systems performance and assist you in selecting the most cost-effective means to achieve your goals.  We believe that these days, enterprise computing cannot succeed on its own, or with some advice from consultants who make suggestions and then move on.  Our customers get help at every step in the systems and applications development process.
