FAQ about enterprise software modernization
Will we lose historical information?
No. We migrate and validate the historical data, and we compare results against the old system before shutting it down.
Do we have to stop operations?
No. We plan the transition module by module and, when needed, both systems run side by side for a while.
What if the current system has no documentation?
That’s very common. We rebuild the rules from the system itself, the database, and interviews with users.
How long does a modernization take?
It depends on the size of the system. After the assessment, we give you a plan with timelines for each stage.
What other names is software modernization known by?
It’s also known as legacy system migration, old software upgrades, or software reengineering. It relates to dashboards, business intelligence, Power BI, KPIs, and data warehouses, topics we review with you when the project calls for them.
