Too expensive to support
The search for the engineers who can keep it running and the fines for not meeting regulatory compliance are only a small part of how much legacy software devours.
Decrease in productivity
Inability to integrate your software with the new age tools of other departments will cause huge bottlenecks and become the reason to lag behind the competitors.
Poor accessibility
Legacy software is often bound to one device, and it doesn’t allow workers to access business data, hence they can't effectively work in remote mode.
Not compatible with modern apps
Incompatibility with modern apps will not only isolate your company and leave it all alone in the ocean of business, but create internal silos.
Discontinued by vendors
One day vendors will stop maintaining your legacy software and cease to update it, that will leave you stuck with an outdated software and lack of productivity.
Insufficient documentation
Security breaches, a lack of customer trust, and penalties are the consequences of the reluctancy to update a legacy system and make it meet every regulation.

Software modernization is the process of updating legacy systems by rewriting their code, adding new features, changing their platform, infrastructure, or both. The aim is to enable outdated software to communicate with its younger counterparts, become more flexible, and streamline business processes in organizations. Moreover, application modernization serves to eliminate silos and bottlenecks caused by legacy platforms’ rigidity.
A legacy system or legacy application is the software that stopped bringing profit to businesses due to becoming outdated, hard to maintain, and expensive to repair. Most of the time, it’s more financially feasible to modernize legacy software rather than replace it with a totally new one.
One of the legacy system examples can be ten-year-old payroll systems that keep using the methodologies emerged even before their creation. In this case, business process automation tools can surely replace tons of hard copy files, the lack of automation options, mistakes in calculations, and outdated programming languages of legacy platforms.
Although your legacy system can still work, sooner or later you’ll face the following problems:
Fively provides the following legacy application modernization services:
Every business has its own unique identity, and maybe your legacy system can be replaced by one of the affordable SaaS solutions?
Contact us to learn more about app modernization that will meet the budget and business needs of your company.
The main approaches and technologies used in the process of modernizing legacy applications are:
Automation: replacement the manual labour and routine tasks with machines;
Microservices: creating the architecture that’s divided into small, independent parts and allows to add and get rid of some of them as needed.
APIs: facilitation of interconnectivity among programs by integrating a legacy system with other apps and devices within or outside your company.
Cloud services: migration to platforms that are hosted by third-parties and don’t require physical hardware to run.
Containerization: a special approach to packaging an app into a container that can be further run on any other device and on the cloud.
There are three ways to migrate legacy applications and the first one, indeed, doesn’t require code rewriting:
no changes to architecture or code: just installing your app in the cloud. But this solution poses several security and performance threats because the initial app structure was built to work in a different environment.
this application migration service involves code changes and requires a larger scope of work, including workflow analysis. Such full-fledged app modernization ensures that new software is optimized specifically for a serverless infrastructure.
we can also rewrite the business logic part of a legacy system or only its front end without changing the whole chunk of code.
Yes, it can, but it’ll still need app modernization services to adopt DevOps and Agile methodologies. For example, a monolithic legacy system should be divided into smaller components, or microservices. The reason is that monolithic structures contradict the basis of DevOps and Agile: continuous delivery and continuous deployment.
Migrating legacy applications to microservices is the best route to make your software more flexible, reliable, and efficient, but it may take some time for a team to adapt to a new culture.
APIs are so-called doorways that allow programs to communicate with each other. One of the biggest problems of legacy platforms is their isolation from the rest of modern software, so with the right API integration, you can renew your software’s ability to exchange data with other apps.
APIs can integrate your app with blockchain, AI and ML, analytics tools, cloud storage, and even allow for mobile access to your business data, providing your employees with the opportunity to work remotely.
The application modernization strategy includes four simple steps:
The ultimate cost of modernizing legacy applications depends on the complexity of a particular project and the scope of work to be done. Leave us a message, and we’ll provide you with a free consultation on the legacy application modernization services Fively provides.
