Mainframe proof of concept: test in your environment

Your Challenges
Before full deployment, you need proof that a mainframe solution works technically and functionally inside your own ecosystem, not just in theory. Our Proof of Concept (POC) service installs and tests our mainframe solutions directly in your environment, so validation matches your actual infrastructure rather than a generic setup.
Our Services
Our Proof of Concept (POC) service lets you test and evaluate our solutions' compatibility before full implementation. We provide all the necessary packages and define objectives with you upfront. Our installation support and project-based approach cover both the technical integration and the functional adoption of the solution.
Our Expertise
We support you through every stage of the Proof of Concept. We start by providing the necessary packages and defining your objectives together. From there, our team handles installation support and detailed training so onboarding actually sticks. We work in project mode, using your own data for realistic tests, with regular progress updates involving both our commercial and technical teams. At the end of the process, we check whether objectives were met and deliver a full report.
Your Benefits
01
Validates the solution’s functional benefits against your specific needs.
02
Tests the solution’s technical integration within your existing ecosystem (processes, infrastructure, software).
03
Drive functional and technical adoption through guided, assisted onboarding.
04
Reduces the risk of adopting new technology.
05
Bases your decision on concrete tests and measurable results, not assumptions.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a mainframe proof of concept (POC) and when should we use one instead of a proof of value?
A mainframe proof of concept installs and tests the solution directly inside your own environment to validate technical integration and functional fit. A proof of value is the right choice earlier, when you’re evaluating potential impact without installing anything in your infrastructure.
Does a proof of concept require installing anything in our environment?
Yes. Unlike a proof of value, a proof of concept installs the solution directly in your environment so you can test real technical integration with your existing infrastructure, processes, and software.
What do we get out of a proof of concept?
A proof of concept validates the solution’s functional fit against your specific needs, tests technical integration with your existing ecosystem, and gives your team guided, hands-on onboarding before you commit to full deployment.
What support does Zetaly provide during a proof of concept?
We provide all necessary packages, define objectives with you, and support installation and project delivery. At the end of the process, we verify that objectives were met and provide a full report.
How is a decision made at the end of a proof of concept?
Decisions are based on concrete tests and measurable results in your environment, no assumptions, so you can move forward with confidence once the process is complete.
Does a proof of concept reduce the risk of adopting a new solution?
Yes. Testing functional and technical fit directly in your environment, before full deployment, is one of the main risk-reduction benefits of a proof of concept, alongside guided onboarding for your team.
Ready to validate our mainframe solution in your own environment?
We’ll install and test it directly alongside your existing systems.
