Jury Systems Circle Image

Jury Systems Incorporated wanted to evolve their trusted jury management system for the web and cloud without a costly rewrite. Here’s how Rocket® Visual COBOL® paved the path forward.

Défi

Jury Systems needed to modernize their COBOL application with a graphical interface, flexible deployment, and relational database integration to meet modern court demands.

Solution

Using Rocket Visual COBOL, Jury Systems created web and cloud-hosted JURY+ applications. Both Windows® and browser solutions now share a single development environment for streamlined updates and consistency.

Résultats

This move gave clients a hassle-free, cloud-hosted option, improved user productivity with an intuitive interface, and future-proofed the application for continuous evolution without major rewrites.

With Visual COBOL, we can support both solution versions easily, as they share the same code base. Any enhancements we make in the system are immediately reflected in both versions. This streamlines our development, ensures consistent high quality, and gives our clients full deployment flexibility.”

Secteur: Technologie

Jury Systems Incorporated is dedicated to improving jury management for over 500 clients across North America and internationally. Their products are designed to assist court clients in handling real-world challenges with efficiency.

Défi

Jury Systems wanted to create a user-friendly, cost-effective web and cloud-hosted version of its proven COBOL solution to keep up with growing market demand.

Jury Systems set out to streamline public jury operations, improving staff efficiency and juror service. Moving beyond their character-based system, they sought a flexible, Windows-based platform with a graphical interface, multiple deployment options, and seamless relational database integration to reach more courts.

 

Solution

With Rocket Visual COBOL, Jury Systems modernized their core application, enabling the creation of a web-based version without major rewrites.

Jury Systems used Visual COBOL to modernize their core application for the Y2K deadline, adding a GUI and relational database integration. This foundation later enabled them to create a web-based version using the same development environment, avoiding a major rewrite, and adding features like image processing and online juror access.

Résultats

The new web version introduced an intuitive user experience, boosted productivity, and paved the way for a fully cloud-hosted delivery model.

The web-based version offered a seamless, more productive user experience with minimal training. It also enabled an AWS® cloud hosting model, allowing Jury Systems to host the solution. By leveraging COBOL, they quickly adapted to new requirements, simplified maintenance and delivered the latest features to clients.
