THE CHALLENGE

As a person responsible for technological advancement in an organisation, managing legacy software systems is challenging. These legacy systems, once the foundation of your operations, now represent a serious barrier to innovation, efficiency, and competitiveness. In this environment, you need a strategic solution to overcome these challenges and take a proactive stance.

How do you modernise without disrupting current operations? What’s the risk involved in the software reengineering process? Challenges like code complexity, obsolete technologies, lack of documentation, and potential downtime can become significant barriers. How can you ensure that the transformation aligns with business objectives? Integrating software reengineering services is an essential step to overcoming these challenges.

PROS AND CONS

Software maintenance and updates are typically cost-effective and address immediate issues. They can help you preserve the existing codebase and extend the life of your digital assets. While suitable for addressing known issues, they may struggle to accommodate significant improvements or adapt to evolving business requirements. It's essentially a set of continuous short-term solutions.
Custom development allows you to create a new solution. It provides an opportunity to leverage modern technologies and best practices from the ground up. However, this approach often entails a longer development timeline, higher initial costs, and the need for a lengthy requirements elicitation. It may not be the most efficient option if your existing software still has the economic life.
Integrating existing software with other tools or services can enhance its functionality and data exchange capabilities. It's a solution that minimises the need for extensive code changes. However, integration solutions may rely on third-party tool compatibility. They might not fully address the underlying issues in the original software, as they focus on bridging functionality gaps rather than modernising the software estate as a whole.

These options have advantages and disadvantages, and the choice depends on your organisation's goals, budget, and the current state of your software. We recommend conducting a comprehensive analysis of your unique situation and consider consulting with experts to determine the most suitable approach.

With more than ten years of experience in various industries, we have addressed a number of technical challenges for our customers, and we are happy to share this experience with you:

01.

We assist clients in restructuring and optimising their existing codebase to make it more maintainable, efficient, and compliant with industry best practices. Recently, we worked with a financial institution with a legacy banking system with a convoluted codebase. We performed extensive code refactoring, removing redundant functions and optimising database queries.

02.

We help clients migrate to modern database systems or upgrade their existing databases for improved performance, scalability, and data management. Our teams ensure a seamless data transition while maintaining integrity. For example, our client, an e-commerce platform was struggling with a slow, on-premises database. We migrated their system to a cloud-based, distributed database solution. As a result, their application could handle a higher load, providing a seamless shopping experience during peak seasons.

03.

We assist in transitioning software systems to new platforms, such as cloud-based solutions or upgrading components to leverage the latest technologies. Recently, a healthcare provider needed to modernise its patient management system. We upgraded the application to a microservices architecture, allowing for easier scaling and integration with new medical devices and systems.

04.

Our engineers redesign and update the user interface of software systems to provide a more modern and user-friendly experience. They redesign the interface, making it more intuitive and mobile-responsive. As a result, the business improves user engagement and retention.

05.

We identify and address performance bottlenecks within software systems, making them faster and more responsive. For example, a logistics company faced performance issues with their route optimisation software. We conducted in-depth performance profiling, identified bottlenecks, and optimised the algorithms. This led to a reduction in route planning times, improving operational efficiency (and made drivers much happier!).

06.

Our experts conduct rigorous testing to ensure the reengineered software maintains its quality and reliability. For example, a fintech startup sought to launch budgeting and expense tracking for their mobile app. We performed thorough regression testing, ensuring the new feature integrated seamlessly with the existing app without introducing bugs or security vulnerabilities.

07.

When documentation is lacking or outdated, we perform code analysis and reverse engineering to gain a comprehensive understanding of the existing codebase.
