2. What is a legacy system?
A legacy system is any outdated software,
hardware, or application that organizations still
use. The term legacy system isn’t necessarily an
aged technology. It can be a system that lacks
platform support or vendor support or doesn’t
meet an organization’s evolving needs and
demands.
3. Yet, why businesses can’t let go of their legacy system?
Maintaining or upgrading legacy systems is one of the major challenges for
CIOs. Here are a few listed factors that often challenge CIOs in delaying the
decision-making process in legacy application migration to the cloud.
Cost - Lack of funds for modernization?
Time - Will legacy migration take too long?
Inertia - Why modernize when my existing system works fine?
Business disruption - Can I move without disrupting my existing operations?
Underskilled Resources - Can my employees operate the new system?
Data Security - Will the changes compromise data security?
4. Today, technology can unhook your business from the
legacy system without issues!
Legacy system migration is a timely process,
and the fear that it will disrupt the regular
operations of businesses prevents
companies from going through it. Contrary
to popular belief, the modernization or
migration process doesn’t disrupt your
business functions, as the old system can
stay up and running while a team of experts
works on the new and improved one.
5. Cost - Cost of software licensing and infrastructure costs are cheaper in modern
systems than in legacy systems.
Time - Modern system software is quick to deploy, easier, reliable, and faster to use.
Inertia - Did you compare your system with your competitor’s advanced software
system?
Business disruption - The right solution partner can assist in legacy migration without
any disruptions to your existing system.
Underskilled Resources - Modern tech methodologies make it simple and hassle-free to
handle the system.
Data Security - Modern systems guarantee uncompromised security of your data and
systems.
