TurnOver^™ Benefits Developers

Get More Time to Program

Using TurnOver is like having an extremely reliable personal assistant to take over your less creative, detail-ridden tasks. Finding the right source, researching previous projects, checking dependencies, compiling and archiving source, undoing a job that isn't quite right — TurnOver is there when you need it. You'll have lots more time to devote to programming.

Protect Your Work

Ever have your code overlaid by another programmer? TurnOver keeps this from happening by alerting developers at critical times in the development cycle when someone else is working on the same object. Should someone overlay your changes despite TurnOver's warnings, you won't find yourself re-coding your changes. TurnOver archives source at every step so you never lose your work.

Retain Current Development Environment

No matter how unique your development environment, TurnOver is flexible enough to adapt to it. Simply use one of our pre-defined development models to be up and running in minutes. You can modify the defaults and rules needed to manage your applications, the number of intermediate environments required, object type definitions, and which of our many exit points to use for custom processing. TurnOver also allows for such things as multiple checkouts and emergency changes, automatically messaging the necessary people so your modifications stay safely installed and maintained.

Improve Accuracy

You will spend less time fixing and more time creating with TurnOver. TurnOver checks all your jobs thoroughly before running them to find all the little problems that seem to pop up without notice. And if something still goes wrong, TurnOver gives you all the recovery options you need to restore the previous production version quickly and try again.

Manage Multiple Versions

No more guessing which source file belongs to which version or release, or forgetting to change a version. TurnOver knows which source you need and reminds you of every version that exists so you can change all active versions simultaneously.

Control Your Work From One Work Area

Perform all of your development tasks from your choice of three powerful user interfaces — the WebSphere Studio plug-ins for WDSC, WSAD, and WSSD users; TurnOverSVN for all other Web, PC, and Java development; and Programmer Worklist Manager for a traditional green screen development environment. Experience unparalleled efficiency when you check out, edit, compile, test, and promote changes — all without leaving your Worklist.

Use Your Favorite Development Tools

TurnOver interfaces with all your favorite PC editors, cross-referencing tools and testing utilities.

Make SQL Changes Easily

Each TurnOver function fully supports all SQL object types, including tables, views, indices, stored procedures, and so on.

Synchronize New Vendor Releases Quickly

If you modify vendor software, TurnOver's Synchronizer^™ module allows you to have new vendor releases installed and modified faster than ever before. Use Synchronizer to analyze the changes in new vendor releases and quickly determine the effort required to retrofit your changes. Synchronizer also includes a powerful source compare and merge utility to automate the project as much as possible.

Manage ILE

You can use TurnOver to help convert current source and objects to ILE and manage changes to ILE modules. Extras, like ILE cross-referencing, come as part of the base package.

Deploy to iSeries, Windows, Unix, or Linux Servers

TurnOver offers full deployment, recovery, archiving, and change history for nearly any server in your network, with support for FTP, TCP/IP, and most other distribution methods.

Program in Java, XML… Anything

TurnOver helps you incorporate the newest technologies into your applications by reliably handling even non-standard objects. As IT requirements continue to evolve, you can rely on TurnOver to help you manage them.
