Rules-driven IBM i platform from a stable, founder-run vendor

RMEx is stable. It is also the reason you need iSeries skills.

Quantrax has built one product since 1988, under the same founder, with no outside investors and no sunset in sight. RMEx runs on IBM i, is written in RPG, and drives collections from a rules knowledge base your team builds over six to eight weeks. The vendor manages every integration itself. That is a real system, and it is also a system whose skills are getting scarce and whose data leaves only through an IBM i job.

Worth knowing first

What is happening at Quantrax RMEx.

Dated and sourced. The things a buyer should know before deciding whether to stay.

  1. 1988 to 1991

    Quantrax Corporation is founded in Bethesda, Maryland, by Ranjan Dharmaraja, who had led development at an earlier AS/400 collection-software vendor. Intelec is designed in 1990 and ships around 1991.

  2. August 2009

    Intelec is renamed RMEx. The libraries on the IBM i still carry the Intelec name.

  3. 2016 to 2023

    Releases 5.0 through 7.0 ("Montana", December 2023) ship as IBM PTF-style updates; 7.0 patches continue into 2025. The web interface is an IBM HATS screen transformation over the 5250 terminal screens.

  4. 2018 to 2025

    Quantrax's hosted estate runs on quantraxcloud.com (registered November 2018); the vendor states RMEx is not a public cloud system. The user conference lapses from 2019 to 2022, returns in 2023 and 2025, and no 2026 edition is announced.

  5. 2025 to 2026

    Recent vendor posts include "Why Quantrax doesn't have AI on its RMEx roadmap" and "Why APIs won't save your collections platform"; a new CIO joins in March 2025; a GSA Multiple Award Schedule is awarded in January 2026. No published SOC 2 or PCI attestation was found for the hosted environment. Two recent Quantrax wins came from Finvi shops (2023 and 2025), which is the market this page lives in.

Why teams make the move

Why agencies leave Quantrax RMEx.

RMEx customers are not leaving a failing vendor. They are leaving an architecture: an IBM i system whose rules live in a knowledge base only a few people understand, whose integrations are built and held by the vendor, and whose data comes out through Query/400 and SQL jobs that need someone who knows an iSeries. Much of the vendor's own content is about calming migration fear, which tells you what its prospects worry about.

IBM i underneath, RPG code, DB2 for i, and a web interface that is a screen transformation of the 5250 terminal. Getting data out is an IBM i job, and the people who can run one are retiring.

Integrations are vendor-managed by design. Quantrax says it manages all custom integrations for your RMEx and argues against open APIs; every new dialer, processor or vendor is a request to Quantrax.

The intelligence is a knowledge base you build. The vendor recommends six to eight weeks to set it up, and its own fit statement says the product is not recommended where management is not committed to rules-driven operation.

A founder-run company, 38 years in, with the founder still the public face of every conversion, development and after-hours support run from its Sri Lanka affiliate, and version drift the vendor attributes to customers not on the current release.

Side by side

Quantrax RMEx vs Resolvah

Both can collect a debt. The difference is how it feels to your team, your clients, and the person on the other end.

Consumer experience
Quantrax RMEx

A multi-tenant payment portal (resolvemyaccounts.com) that takes payments. Plain-language resolution and plan building are not the design; texting and chat are usage-billed add-ons.

Resolvah

A warm, self-serve resolution experience. Dee explains the balance in plain language, offers plans people can actually afford, and lets them resolve it 24/7 from any phone.

Where it runs
Quantrax RMEx

On-premises IBM i or Quantrax's private cloud; explicitly not a public cloud system.

Resolvah

Fully cloud-hosted and always current — nothing to install, patch, or keep alive on a server in your office.

Compliance & audit
Quantrax RMEx

Rules-driven, and only as good as the knowledge base your team built; Metro 2 is native.

Resolvah

FDCPA, Reg F, TCPA and state rules built into the everyday workflow, with a complete, exportable audit trail on every account and message.

Automation & intelligence
Quantrax RMEx

A deep rules engine the vendor calls its AI; separate add-on assistants for specific tasks.

Resolvah

Modern automation and AI assist draft outreach, summarize an account at a glance, and surface the next best step — without taking the human out of it.

Pricing & contracts
Quantrax RMEx

Per-seat licensing plus usage-billed add-ons and vendor-built integrations.

Resolvah

Transparent, predictable pricing. The features that make recovery humane aren't locked behind surprise modules or per-seat upcharges.

Your migration
Quantrax RMEx

Vendor-managed integrations and a vendor-managed migration path. Resolvah extracts from DB2 for i with your iSeries person, or ours, and reconciles it with you.

Resolvah

A Resolvah onboarding team works with yours at every step: we map your data, move it, reconcile it against your old system, and work with your payment processor so active arrangements keep running. Four weeks to three months, and we stay on through go-live.

Comparison reflects general, publicly-observable platform characteristics and is provided to help you evaluate a switch. Quantrax RMEx is a trademark of its respective owner; Resolvah is not affiliated with or endorsed by it.

The switch itself

A migration you barely feel.

RMEx keeps its data in DB2 for i, which is queryable: customers run their own Query/400 and SQL against it today. The export is an IBM i job (SQL and CPYTOIMPF to CSV), so we scope who runs it first. Your rules knowledge base does not port one-to-one to any other system; we document it with the people who built it and rebuild the strategies you use in Resolvah. Four weeks to three months, and RMEx stays your system of record until you sign off.

01

Prepare

We scope your portfolio, confirm the export path, and schedule a calm migration window.

02

Move

Your data comes across — accounts, history, notes and active plans — with a Resolvah specialist on it start to finish.

03

Validate

We reconcile every total with you against your old system before anyone relies on the new one.

04

Go live

Your collectors pick up where they left off, and your old system stays put until you're ready to retire it.

Worried about payment tokens? We work directly with your existing payment processor to re-point the vault to Resolvah, so stored cards and ACH come across and every active arrangement keeps running. Nobody re-enters a card, and no plan is interrupted.

WHAT MOVES FROM QUANTRAX RMEX

The honest list for this system, so cutover day holds no surprises.

  • Accounts, debtors and balances

    Extracted from DB2 for i by SQL and reconciled account by account.

  • Payment history and notes

    Transaction and note history come out with the accounts; we check counts and totals against RMEx before cutover.

  • Smart codes and account status

    Mapped with your team to Resolvah's outcomes, so collectors recognize their accounts on day one.

  • Active payment arrangements

    Scheduled arrangements continue on their cadence.

  • Stored cards and ACH

    RMEx runs payments through processors such as LucentPay, Payscout, REPAY or Payment Savvy. We work with your processor to re-point the vault to Resolvah, so every plan keeps running.

  • Credit reporting history

    Metro 2 is native in RMEx; we carry the reporting state across so the next file is consistent.

  • The rules knowledge base

    Strategy rules are built in RMEx's own model. We document them with the people who own them and rebuild the ones you actually use.

  • Dialer recordings

    Held in I-Tel, TCN or your dialer vendor. We help you export them for retention.

BEFORE YOU GIVE NOTICE
  • Find your iSeries person. If the only one who can run Query/400 against RMEx is a contractor or a retiree, book them for the export window before anything else.
  • Inventory the knowledge base with whoever built it: which rules fire in a normal month, and which have not fired in a year.
  • Read your hosting agreement if you are on quantraxcloud.com: notice period and how you get a full copy of your libraries.
  • Tell your payment processor a re-point of the token vault is coming, and get any fee in writing.
  • List the vendor-built integrations you depend on (dialer, texting, scrubs, letters); each one is re-pointed to Resolvah, not carried over.
Questions, answered

Switching from Quantrax RMEx

Is Quantrax going anywhere?

No. It is founder-owned, debt-free by its own account, and has shipped one product for 35 years with no sunset or sale on record. This page is not about vendor risk. It is about what it costs to keep running an IBM i rules engine with vendor-held integrations, and what it takes to leave one.

How painful is moving our Quantrax RMEx data to Resolvah?

We make it as painless as we can, and we do it with you rather than to you. Accounts, balances, payment history, notes, active arrangements and compliance flags come across, and we reconcile the totals against Quantrax RMEx before anyone relies on Resolvah. Anything that cannot come across (call recordings held by a dialer vendor, for example) is identified up front, so nothing is a surprise on cutover day.

Will active payment plans keep running when we switch from Quantrax RMEx?

Yes. We work with your existing payment processor to re-point the vault to Resolvah, so stored card and ACH tokens come across, scheduled arrangements continue on their cadence, and no consumer re-enters payment details.

How long does migrating from Quantrax RMEx take?

Four weeks to three months, depending on the size of the portfolio and how Quantrax RMEx stores its data. A Resolvah onboarding specialist scopes it with you first, so you get a date, not a range, before anything moves. Quantrax RMEx stays your system of record until the reconciliation is signed off.

Will we lose the intelligence when we leave RMEx?

You will lose the rules engine, and you will keep the knowledge. RMEx's strategies are a knowledge base your team wrote; we sit with the people who wrote it, document what actually fires, and rebuild those strategies in Resolvah, where Dee and the automation take the next best step without a rules language in between.
