IBM i — Industries We Serve
Built for How Your Industry Actually Runs IBM i
Manufacturers, retailers, steel producers, distributors, and financial institutions all lean on IBM i differently. Paragon has hosted and managed those systems since 1996 — across every industry that depends on them.
Sectors we serve
Six Sectors, One Team That Keeps Your IBM i Running
Every industry puts different demands on an IBM i environment — uptime windows, compliance requirements, and how much internal IT support is even available to keep it running. Paragon’s hosting and managed services adjust to those demands rather than forcing every client into the same package.
Steel Processing
Coil tracking, order entry, and shipping schedules on IBM i don’t get downtime. We host and manage systems for major steel producers like Nucor, with the uptime and disaster recovery a mill floor actually needs.
Manufacturing & Distribution
From discrete manufacturing to two-sided distribution operations, IBM i still runs the ERP, inventory, and order management most of these businesses can’t operate without. We host it, manage it, and keep it patched.
Retail & e-Commerce
Retail and consumer goods companies run IBM i behind inventory, order management, and warehouse systems that can’t go down during peak season. We provide the hosting and around-the-clock monitoring to make sure they don’t.
Logistics & 3PL
Dispatch, warehouse management, and carrier systems on IBM i need to be available every hour of every day. We host and manage 3PL environments so a hardware failure doesn’t turn into a missed pickup.
Finance & Banking
Community banks and credit unions running core systems on IBM i need hosting and managed services built around compliance and uptime, not generic IT support. We bring three decades of platform-specific experience to that.
Other Industries
Not seeing your industry here doesn’t mean we can’t help. If IBM i runs something your business depends on, we can very likely host it, manage it, or both.
