As a low-cost entry to the integration market, in 1999 iE launched iE ScreenSurfer, a general purpose web gateway for screen based host applications. Using any web browser it is used to access 3270 or 5250 based screens. It replaces expensive PC terminal emulation software and helps reduce costs, simplifies administration, avoids multi-site installation of new versions of emulation software and provides access to new groups of users. In 2001 the iE ScreenSurfer business was sold to TeamStudio who should be contacted for any support or sales activity that you require.
