Benefits of DOOR3’s Legacy Application Modernization Services

Real-Time Global Data Access And Backup

Cloud storage provides fast, low-cost, highly durable storage for data. Perfect for reducing the cost of backups and archives while still retaining immediate access.

Improved Customer Experience

By modernizing your legacy systems, you can eliminate frequent operational glitches caused by outdated technology, and ensure a seamless user experience for your customers.

A Cost-Effective Transition

Organizations that do not upgrade their legacy applications or do not consider migrating to the cloud have to rely on in-house hardware for support, which involves unavoidable maintenance charges and high IT infrastructure costs.

Enhanced Security And Protection

Security is the topmost reason as to why you should prioritize modernizing your legacy systems. The inherent rigidity of traditional or legacy systems infrastructure is susceptible to innumerable cybersecurity and compliance challenges. Security vulnerabilities, malware attacks, and data breaches can put your organization’s reputation at stake.

Legacy Application Modernization Approaches & Strategies

  • Lift & Shift

    One of our legacy application modernization approaches is Lift & Shift. It involves lifting a portion of an entire pre-existing application from your on-premise infrastructure and shifting it to the cloud with few or no modifications to the code.

  • Augment & Refactor

    Another approach we use for modernizing legacy applications is Augment & Refactor. This involves making major changes to your application’s code or configuration in order to move it to the cloud without impacting its external behavior; the architecture of the existing application remains unchanged.

  • Complete Rewrite

    Our third approach is Complete Rewrite. This involves rebuilding your application from the ground up by creating new functionalities to replace and retire existing applications, including updating the application architecture for a fully modern technology stack.

Our Work

Stillwell-Hansen’s legacy software was hopelessly siloed. While it was intended to track the lifecycle of a contract, from the quote process through ongoing service orders, the application was frustrating to navigate and buggy.
