Legacy software support
For businesses that depend on software nobody else wants to touch. We keep it running, connect it to everything else, and move it on when you're ready.
Legacy software is anything your business depends on that has stopped moving with the times: out of support, built by a supplier who has gone, understood by one person, or tied to one old computer. It usually still works. The problem is what happens when it doesn't.
We work with the systems most UK businesses are actually running, not just the ones that are fashionable to talk about.
Systems we work with
FoxPro and Visual FoxPro. FoxPro for DOS and Windows, and Visual FoxPro 3 to 9.
dBase and Clipper. dBase III and IV, Clipper Summer '87 and other xBase applications, plus the DBF data they leave behind.
Delphi. Delphi 1 to 7 applications, including those using the Borland Database Engine and Paradox tables.
Sage. Integration, data extraction and migration across Sage Line 50, Sage 200, Sage Line 500 and Sage 1000.
BASIC and bespoke systems. GW-BASIC, BASICA and QuickBASIC programs, and the one-off systems written by a developer who has long since moved on.
What we do
Health Check. A £495 fixed-price review with a written report on risks and costed options. What's included.
Keep it running. Fixes, Windows compatibility, printing, new hardware, and documentation so you're not dependent on one person.
Data rescue. A clean, complete copy of your data, checked record by record, in whatever format you need next.
Integration. Connect the old system to your CRM, accounts, website or phone system so nothing gets typed twice.
Migration. Fixed-price moves to a modern web application or a platform such as Odoo, done in stages so the business keeps running.
