Legacy Software Modernisation
Stop paying for a system that slows you down
Frustrated by the money wasted on a slow, ineffective legacy IT system? We'll build you a robust, modern replacement that moves your business forward — smoothly replacing or rebuilding outdated systems so your organisation keeps operating without disruption.
Outdated technology, growing costs, shrinking expertise
Many organisations continue to run legacy IT systems and products — even though they're getting harder and harder to maintain. Skilled workers familiar with older technology stacks are increasingly difficult to find, the hardware is often expensive and unreliable, and security is a genuine question mark. Modernising it all can look like a daunting prospect.
The obstacles businesses face
Undocumented process complexity
Existing software that's complex to understand, with processes nobody has fully documented.
Is the investment worth it?
Management unsure whether modernisation investment is genuinely needed.
Business disruption during the process
Worry about what happens to daily operations while systems change.
Do you have the resources?
Concerns about whether there's enough capacity to carry the project through.
Managing modernisation costs
Keeping the budget controlled and predictable from start to finish.
Whatever the barrier, we can help you cross it — with a proven process and a clear plan.
Modern software is the first step toward real business agility
Businesses want to react swiftly to market change, reduce costs and keep employees content. Modernisation lets you drop time-consuming manual workarounds and deliver high-quality results — while unlocking modern advances like cloud computing, big data and mobility that are creating considerable economic value.
devsight's modernisation process
Research & business insight
We spend time learning about your company, its current problems, and what the new system must do for your employees and partners — including the workflow changes they recommend.
Document everything
We carefully examine and record the current systems, making sure no detail is overlooked. This, we believe, is the secret to a seamless upgrade.
Prototype early
At this early design stage we provide a prototype, so you can see how the new system will look, feel and function before we build it.
Two ways to modernise
Bring functionality across
We carry proprietary business processes or formulas onto a new system that interfaces effectively with newer technologies.
Build new, switch off old
We build a completely new system — with the option to "switch off" the old legacy system at the end of the process.
In most cases, data from the legacy system needs to be migrated to the new one — and in some situations, synchronised between old and new for a side-by-side rollout. We've managed many difficult data migration scenarios, and you can rely on us to make the process succeed.
A system designed to increase efficiency
Whichever option you choose, we apply cutting-edge, powerful technology to a design that improves how you work:
The result: informed management, productive users and happy customers.
Built on modern, future-proof technology
devsight uses Azure, .NET Core, C# programming, and SQL or Cosmos — among other technologies — to deliver systems that last.
