Today’s rapidly changing business environment means companies must be agile enough to suddenly move in new directions. To remain competitive, organizations must be able to change strategies, adapt to new market conditions promptly and introduce new products or services quickly. But what happens when rigid legacy applications cause your business to drag its feet? Speedware’s legacy modernization solutions help your company stay agile while pointing you in the right direction.
Speedware points you in the right direction
Companies need business applications that align with business objectives and are open and flexible enough to support growth through new product introduction and expansion into new markets. Unfortunately, outdated legacy applications, with their high cost of ownership, are often the ball and chain that slow down the business.
The legacy system, once state-of-the-art but built on unwieldy, monolithic platforms, is dependent on inflexible and unscalable technologies and architectures. Over time, it has become a convoluted patchwork of poorly integrated information systems, redundant applications and fragmented data. Too often, up to 40-50% of a company’s IT budget is consumed by the maintenance and support of these outdated legacy systems. To make matters worse, finding skilled resources who can understand and decipher the millions of lines of undocumented code and data models is an enormous challenge.
Speedware helps keep your business on its toes.
Speedware points you in the right direction with cost-effective legacy modernization solutions. Our solutions help companies stay nimble by aligning their IT environments with business objectives, adopting leading-edge systems and reducing the total cost of ownership.
According to Gartner industry analysts, "Expect to need help while executing a migration strategy to a different hardware/application environment. Tools may be perceived as tactical and, therefore, not worth the investment, but they should be seen as insurance to significantly reduce the risk of failure." 1
