Ericom's PowerTerm Has Reached End-of-Life

Organizations have relied on Ericom's PowerTerm to enable access to business-critical legacy systems. With the platform reaching end of life in March 2025 and end of support scheduled for June 2027, businesses using Ericom's PowerTerm InterConnect, PowerTerm WebConnect, or PowerTerm Thin Client must now reassess how they will maintain secure, reliable access going forward.

This raises uncertainty in areas such as:

Ongoing vendor support and updates
Security and compliance requirements
Compatibility with future infrastructure changes
Long-term viability for critical system access

For teams that rely on mainframe, IBM i, UNIX, or MultiValue environments, the priority is continuity. Jubilant provides a supported, browser-based access model that helps organizations move forward with control and confidence.

Why Choose Jubilant Terminal Emulator

Jubilant helps organizations maintain secure access to existing legacy systems while creating a clearer, more controlled path forward. Instead of forcing unnecessary platform change, our platform provides a supported access layer designed around continuity, security, and long-term viability.

Security

Maintain secure, compliant access

Legacy systems require modern protection to keep your infrastructure safe. Ericom's PowerTerm has reached end-of-life, which means there will be limited security updates, if at all, moving forward.With Jubilant, your security and access are protected with modern security standards and supported protocols.

Support for TLS 1.3, SSH, and HTTPS
Continuous security testing and updates
Alignment with enterprise security and compliance requirements

Jubilant lets you maintain confidence in how critical systems are accessed and secured.

Continuity

Ensure operational continuity

The biggest risk of using end-of-life platforms like Ericom's PowerTerm is that there is no guarantee of operational continuity.Jubilant allows organizations to continue using existing systems without disruption or unnecessary change.

No dependency on installed terminal emulators
Stable access across mainframe, IBM i and UNIX environments
Structured rollout designed to minimize risk

With Jubilant, your operations remain stable and uninterrupted.

Control

Improve control over legacy access

Ericom is locally installed client-side, which limits accessibility and control.Jubilant, however, leverages a browser-based model that simplifies how access is managed across users and environments.

Centralized access management
Reduced complexity compared to installed solutions
Greater visibility and consistency across access points

When you migrate to Jubilant, you gain clearer control over how systems are accessed and managed.

Future-proof

Enable a controlled path to modernization

As Ericom's PowerTerm has reached end of life, updates will stop, which creates uncertainty around future compatibility, security and support.Jubilant provides a foundation for extending and evolving legacy systems over time and supports host systems such as Mainframe, IBM i (AS400/iSeries), Unix/Linux, VAX, VMS, and MultiValue.

API enablement through web services
UX modernization options
Cloud-ready architecture

You can move forward with Jubilant at your own pace, without committing to high-risk transformation.
