A True Modern
Alternative to IBM CMOD.
Every enterprise running CMOD faces the same challenge: decades of AFP documents that most modern platforms cannot handle natively. DIXI Vault is built to solve exactly that — delivering the full capabilities organizations need while eliminating AFP conversion risk.
The Conversion Trap
Advanced Function Presentation (AFP) is IBM's proprietary print stream format. Decades of bank statements, insurance policies, and telecom bills live as AFP in CMOD repositories. No competing archive platform supports AFP natively — forcing a painful, multi-year, multi-million dollar conversion project as a prerequisite to any migration. DIXI Vault eliminates this requirement entirely, making CMOD replacement financially and operationally viable for the first time.
