The document discusses Bob's problems managing the IT department of a large company. Bob faces difficulties keeping management happy due to inability to quickly implement change requests or open up the sales system online. His costs are also spiraling out of control due to high software maintenance fees and incompatible legacy systems. Modernizing the old software through migration offers the best solution for Bob by retaining existing functionality while updating platforms.

45. Old Software can cause SO MUCH trouble? YES! Old Software can ultimately TAKE A COMPANY DOWN! Let’s take a look

46. The Problem with Old Software

47. The Problem with Old Software Difficulty

48. The Problem with Old Software Difficulty Older technologies are more difficult to maintain, and this is a key pain point for many legacy system owners.

49. The Problem with Old Software Difficulty High Cost

50. The Problem with Old Software Difficulty High Cost Difficulty translates into cost. Salaries of hard-to-find resources, time taken to make changes and licensing fees of older technologies -- all drive up the total cost of ownership (TCO). Software maintenance (defect repairs and enhancement) is the largest IT line item (61%) in America's larger corporations today.

51. The Problem with Old Software Difficulty High Cost Lack of Integration

52. The Problem with Old Software Difficulty High Cost Lack of Integration Legacy software typically does not integrate well with other IT systems. As a result we get “silos” of information, just as what Bob has. These silos do not talk to one another. Data has to be manually or semi-manually synched, leading to cost, redundant data, incorrect information and unproductivity.

53. The Problem with Old Software Difficulty High Cost Lack of Integration Competitive Pressure

54. The Problem with Old Software Difficulty High Cost Lack of Integration Competitive Pressure New technology can offer significant business advantage (e.g., sleek user interfaces, web services, etc.) and boost revenues as well as profitability. The demand comes from Marketing department, Production department, the Management, and from the market at large.

55. The Problem with Old Software Difficulty High Cost Lack of Integration Competitive Pressure New Business Models

56. The Problem with Old Software Difficulty High Cost Lack of Integration Competitive Pressure New Business Models New technology can offer significant business advantage (e.g., sleek user interfaces, web services, etc.) and boost revenues as well as profitability. The demand comes from Marketing department, Production department, the Management, and from the market at large.

57. The Problem with Old Software Difficulty High Cost Lack of Integration New Business Models Competitive Pressure Lack of Business Agility

58. The Problem with Old Software Difficulty High Cost Lack of Integration New Business Models Competitive Pressure Lack of Business Agility Because of lack of quick support from IT, the company loses the ability to quickly respond to internal and external changes. This lack of Business Agility makes the organization less competitive in the market, and causes untold loss of revenues, current and future. This could be the single biggest loss of all.

59. The Problem with Old Software Difficulty High Cost Lack of Integration New Business Models Competitive Pressure Lack of Business Agility Regulatory Changes

60. The Problem with Old Software Difficulty High Cost Lack of Integration New Business Models Competitive Pressure Lack of Business Agility Regulatory Changes Sometimes changes beyond our control dictate changes that the old software might be ill-equipped to handle. The most important of these is regulations coming out of the government departments that the company must adhere to within the stipulated time.

61. The Problem with Old Software Difficulty High Cost Lack of Integration New Business Models Competitive Pressure Lack of Business Agility Regulatory Changes Lack of Manpower

62. The Problem with Old Software Difficulty High Cost Lack of Integration New Business Models Competitive Pressure Lack of Business Agility Regulatory Changes Lack of Manpower Good programmers do NOT want to work on older software. Those who do either come at a stiff premium (high cost), or are not skilled enough to be relied upon.

63. The Problem with Old Software Difficulty High Cost Lack of Integration New Business Models Competitive Pressure Lack of Business Agility Regulatory Changes Lack of Manpower Inefficiency & Lack of Productivity

64. The Problem with Old Software Difficulty High Cost Lack of Integration New Business Models Competitive Pressure Lack of Business Agility Regulatory Changes Lack of Manpower Inefficiency & Lack of Productivity Old software is also often bloated, with dead code, duplicate code, inefficient code, and so on – leading to untold difficulties, delays and production problems.
