New Generation Software, Inc. (NGS) provides query, reporting, and analytics solutions tailored for both big and small IBM i customers—in every industry and geography. Our solutions include the following:
NGS-IQ is a comprehensive query, reporting, and analytics solution designed to satisfy operations, auditing, and compliance requirements. Thousands of busy IBM i users turn to NGS-IQ when they need an ad-hoc query, production report, up-to-date spreadsheet, real-time Web report, OLAP model, or file that’s easy to share.
The NGS QDK is a one developer, two-concurrent user solution designed to economically satisfy the query and reporting needs of small shops and departments. It can also enable an enterprise team with the most popular features needed to get started. For just $2,000, we provide the software, a one-year license with maintenance, telephone and Web-based education, and toll-free support.
The NGS-IQ subscription plan includes NGS-IQ’s Microsoft 365, Windows and Web integration features, IBM i-based administration and security, education, technical support, and software maintenance. A multi-year commitment isn’t required. You may add NGS-IQ users and modules anytime.
Qport Office is a Windows, run-only interface to IBM Query for i (Query/400). If you still use Query for i and don't have the budget to upgrade to an alternative right now, NGS-IQ charges no license fee for a two-concurrent user license of Qport Office—so your users can output those queries to Microsoft Excel, Access, and Word.
