What’s the difference between software modernization and replatforming?

Software modernization can include rearchitecting, rehosting, or rebuilding systems. Replatforming is a form of modernization that involves moving your application to a modern platform (e.g., cloud) with minimal changes to the core architecture. It provides better scalability and infrastructure agility without full redevelopment.

How do I know if I need legacy software modernization services?

If your current systems are difficult to maintain, lack support, or can't integrate with modern tools, it's time to consider modernization. Other signs include frequent performance issues, rising costs, and security vulnerabilities.

Any business relying on outdated systems, whether in finance, logistics, healthcare, or manufacturing, can benefit from modernisation. We work with mid-size businesses and enterprises to revitalise systems and improve operational efficiency.
