Are you looking to unlock the potential of software modernisation for your business?

Then let us talk!

Although the terms software modernisation and software migration are often used interchangeably, strictly speaking there are differences. While software modernisation is about revising and improving the existing system, software migration is about moving to a completely new platform or technology. Both approaches have their advantages and disadvantages.

We will be happy to advise you on which strategy is best suited to your organisation.

Yes, partial modernisation is usually possible and is often a cost-effective way to improve the performance and security of your software.

You can read more about this in our blog post «Why software modernisation is often the best solution» (in German).

The success of software modernisation can be measured using various KPIs and indicators. Some KPIs for measuring success are listed below:

  • Performance improvement: Monitoring system performance before and after modernisation to determine if there are improvements in performance, reliability and efficiency
  • Cost savings: Analysing operating costs before and after the modernisation to determine if the modernisation has resulted in cost savings.
  • User satisfaction: Conducting user surveys or analysing user feedback to assess the impact of the modernisation on the user experience.
  • Security improvements: Reviewing security protocols and measures to determine if the modernisation has improved system security.
  • Scalability: Evaluate the system’s ability to handle increasing demands as an indicator of successful modernisation.
  • ROI (Return on Investment): Calculating the ROI by comparing the cost of modernisation with the benefits achieved to assess the economic viability of the project.
  • Economic objectives: Checking whether the modernisation has helped to achieve specific business objectives, such as increased sales, improved customer loyalty or new product launches.
