Living With A Legacy System

Living With A Legacy System

Technology moves incredibly fast. New software and languages are developed every day and it can be difficult keeping your software cutting-edge and up-to-date with current standards and practises. Many legacy systems were written decades ago and while the businesses relying on them develop and grow, these systems do not. They become stagnant and can hinder business growth. As your company develops and evolves, so too should your software.

An old software system can slow business performance right down. Like any technology, with more alterations and use it becomes slower and more difficult to manage. Even basic tasks can take much longer than they need to and can result in double data entry, slowing down business processes and creating a window for error.

Often, we have found, companies do not have staff who can modify or enhance a legacy system. The systems are so old the people who used to maintain them left the company and new employees do not understand how the system works, resulting in a general lack of understanding around the software

One major issue with an outdated system, especially in our current climate, is the issue of security. Software written a decade ago is just not designed to stand up to modern malware and attacks, leaving company data at risk with the threat of data loss or a total breakdown of the system.
