Common questions about legacy software modernisation
It depends on your specific situation. During our system assessment, we'll evaluate code quality, architecture, and technical debt to recommend the most cost-effective approach. Sometimes modernisation makes sense, other times a rebuild delivers better long-term value.
Timelines vary significantly based on system complexity, size, and the extent of modernisation required. After our assessment, we'll provide realistic timelines.
We minimise disruption through careful planning and incremental migration. Often, we'll run systems in parallel during transition, ensuring business continuity. Critical downtime is scheduled strategically and kept to an absolute minimum.
Data integrity is paramount. We implement comprehensive backup strategies, conduct thorough testing in staging environments, and use proven migration techniques. We verify data accuracy at every stage before committing to production.
We have extensive experience with legacy technologies and migration patterns. Even if your system uses outdated languages or frameworks, we can assess the code, understand the business logic, and migrate to modern platforms.
Absolutely. Phased modernisation often makes sense for complex systems. We can prioritise critical components, modernise incrementally, and spread costs over time while delivering value at each stage.
We're technology-agnostic and recommend platforms based on your requirements, not vendor preferences. We'll assess your needs, team capabilities, and long-term goals to select appropriate modern frameworks and infrastructure.
