Market Need

Forrester Research’s analysis of 562 companies in North America and Europe showed that 55% of current IT budgets are dedicated to maintaining systems and business processes that are up to 20 years old.1


At the same time, the cost of maintaining legacy client/server software applications is increasing and the number of IT professionals capable of supporting client/server applications and programming languages is shrinking. 2


Gartner Research recommends that organizations fund an application modernization program today to avoid the “train wreck” that will result from any delay:

“Most IT portfolios have grown up haphazardly throughout the years, mixing technologies, vendors and architectures that require increasing resources to manage. An overhaul initiative works with the application strategy to drive the IT organization to achieve a desired state, usually with the intent of modernizing it. Note that it is not just buying new computers. Modernization is about creating a more-flexible and dynamic IT environment.”3
