Discover how zopen community have made a positive impact to various organizations and developers. Read the testimonials from our community members below:


"We use the tools on USS for doing development. I have used linux and other open source tools for a long time. I'm new to z/OS and USS. I tried using the rocket tools since it was more well known. Somewhere along the way I learned of your ports and switched over. I prefer your version of ports and the warm welcome of the developers. Keep up with the good work"

  • John F. Davis, Software Developer, Broadcom

"We have been looking for the z/OS USS environment to provide a state of the art "Unix" experience. Participating in the z/OS Open-source Guild meetings has allowed us to install, test and recommend additional tools to be included in the porting efforts. It reminds me of the positive experience in a previous IBM Sponsor User Research initiative. IBM is doing a great job leading all the participants.

Through this effort, I have learned that the GNU collection of "free" software (typically packaged with Linux distributions) is the z/OS Open-Source strategy. z/OS and GNU software are a robust combination for hosting on-prem cloud native applications. We see tremendous value moving the platform forward adopting the zopen community.

We are excited to find out more about IBM's strategy regarding packaging, delivery, and support for enterprise use."
