FAQs
-
What are the key approaches to software modernization?
These are five key modernization strategies, including rehosting, refactoring, replatforming, re-architecting, and full replacement. The choice of an approach depends on the extent of required changes, the available budget, and your current organizational goals. Rehosting involves minor changes, while re-architecting or full replacement requires substantial rework.
-
How do you determine that the app needs modernization?
We evaluate technical, business, and operational factors to understand whether the existing software meets your needs. Our team also analyzes your complaints to identify how software optimization can help fix them. An outdated tech stack, scalability issues, frequent app crashes, slow performance, and security vulnerabilities are common signs that it's time for modernization.
-
Is a complete system rebuild a possible option?
Yes, if the system is too outdated or fails to meet your business goals, even after implementing significant changes, you may need to rebuild it. In this case, development from scratch may be a more feasible solution than investing in the legacy system. We always run an audit to determine which approach is more cost-effective and beneficial.
-
What is the cost of application modernization solutions?
The cost of app modernization depends on your current technical debt and the issues you face with software. Minor changes, such as app rehosting, may start at several thousand dollars, while the budget for refactoring or rebuilding from scratch often exceeds hundreds of thousands. Contact our team for project evaluation and consulting to get a personalized quote.
-
Can you add new features to our existing software?
Yes, we can add new features to existing software after optimizing its operation. We will analyze whether your current systems support the new capabilities and offer ways to prepare the app for modernization. We can connect new app features through software integration or develop custom functionality from scratch.
-
What cooperation models do you have?
We staff tech talents based on dedicated team and team extension models. The dedicated team model means we assemble a remote team of software engineers, QA testers, designers, and other specialists to work on your project. With team extension, our engineers join your in-house department to help you modernize and develop software.
-
How long does software modernization take?
The duration of software modernization depends on project complexity and the depth of required changes. We will discuss it at the start of cooperation after estimating your legacy systems. Minor app updates may last 2-3 months, while major software modernization with full rebuild may take over a year.
-
Can we have a free consulting session?
We offer free consulting sessions to anyone considering cooperation with Binary and interested in learning more about our services. Meet our consultants to discuss your project and get a professional opinion on what engineering services you need. Consulting sessions are also crucial for estimating the project scope and agreeing on the terms of cooperation.
-
Are there any risks involved in application modernization?
The wrong approach to legacy software modernization can result in increased risks. Critical business data loss or corruption is the most common issue. Some companies also suffer from prolonged downtime that affects their business operations. That's why we thoroughly analyze your existing systems and plan the modernization process at the outset to minimize risks.
-
How do you manage software modernization remotely?
A project management approach depends on the cooperation model. With team extension, our engineers become a part of your team managed on your side. If you request software modernization as a service and hire a dedicated team, we assign a project manager to coordinate the process and translate the client's feedback into tasks.
When you need software modernization services
-
Outdated technology
When your software is based on an obsolete tech stack and no longer supports updates, it's time to modernize it. Consider replacing legacy components with modern solutions or migrating the app to newer versions or the cloud.
-
Slow performance
Unresponsive interfaces and slow load times can compromise software efficiency and result in poor user experience. Avoid the negative consequences of using legacy apps by refactoring your code or transitioning to technology that ensures better performance.
-
High maintenance costs
Legacy software can strain your budget due to the need for regular bug fixes, patching, and manual updates. Optimizing legacy software and automating core repetitive operations can help you significantly reduce expenses.
-
Security vulnerabilities
When the risks of data breaches are too high, and your system cannot properly secure personal data, software modernization is essential. We implement secure coding practices and environments to enhance protection.
-
Interoperability issues
If you cannot integrate your existing systems with desired solutions, consider modernizing your app to improve interoperability. It will allow you to connect with partners, offer new services, automate workflows, and achieve other business benefits.
-
Poor user satisfaction
Dissatisfied users, negative reviews, and decreasing app downloads are strong reasons to audit and optimize your software. Use our assistance to redesign the UI/UX, improve stability and performance, and implement iterative development based on user feedback.
