Resource overspend

Maintenance of outdated software systems requires on average 40% more financial resources and 60% more time than servicing up-to-date products.

Complicated servicing

Most software engineers look forward and not back in their professional development. Antiquated tech stack risks to be left untended in the years to come.

Poor integration potential

Incorporation of new features, services, and APIs is vital for keeping an application alive. Legacy architecture and tech stack are rigid to change and development.

Piling up technical debt

Inefficient software maintenance inevitably results in accumulating code debt in the form of weak security, lack of test coverage, increased likelihood of bugs, and ever- growing financial resource demand.

Drifting apart from business needs

Instead of being the driving force of a company, legacy systems hamper business growth by requiring more resources and attention for their own maintenance.

Lagging behind competitors

Vintage software is not designed to be adaptable to the changing market landscape. Сompanies missing out on emerging business opportunities and being unable to adjust tend to have an unfortunate end.

Open on every front

In the era when data and brand loyalty cost more than gold to businesses legacy software leaves the front door open to cybercriminals as the older the technology, the more vulnerable it gets.

Substandard regulation compliance

New and updated software regulations emerge more often than ever. Using software that can’t comply has a 100% risk of heavy fines and brand trust crashing.
