Modernize Your Legacy Applications
Reinvent Your Legacy While Minimizing Risk and Cost
Legacy application modernization is a powerful and safe way to help ensure your company’s success, far into the future. Think evolution, not revolution.
Never Sacrifice Functionality
Preserve and build on your past investments.
Transition in Stages
Improve feasibility, mitigate risk, and contain costs. Lather, rinse, and repeat.
Make It Work
Adopt best practices. Migrate to an intuitive, user-friendly experience.
Meet Smart Modernization
Our approach to legacy application modernization has been honed over hundreds of customer engagements. We help you evolve your application to a distributed platform defined by web-based microservices and a modern UI/UX using our proven methodology.
After a detailed system assessment to determine the opportunities you have for modernization, we use proofs of concept (PoCs) and pilots to improve feasibility, mitigate risk, and contain costs. (Our PoCs are well-known for being actionable and accountable.) Using industry best practices, we then help you expand the PoC to create your modern solution and also maximize your ability to support your evolved application.
The end result? A future-proof IT infrastructure with a user-focused UI/UX that will preserve and extend your many person-years of investment in business rules, logic, databases, and other irreplaceable intellectual property.
Embrace the Future (Well-Defined Path Included)
Businesses in virtually every industry are turning to UI/UX to bring their trusted applications into the future. Synergex can take you there with minimal code changes, low risk to application functionality and performance, and good ROI.

“Leveraging Harmony Core to expose our data and logic within the RCC application has opened up possibilities for us that I didn’t think were possible in a custom, legacy software application.”
Case Studies
Hear how two Synergex customers moved their legacy apps forward by leveraging web services for a new UI.
“Harmony Core has really given us hope for moving forward. For the last 8-10 years we had this looming technological debt that we didn’t see a way out of. Now with this new UI project moving forward and the success we’re having, we all see that path and see that we have a future with this product, without tearing it apart and starting over.”

“When we tell people the things we’re able to do now [after exposing our data via a Harmony Core web service], they tend to look at [our legacy application] in a slightly different way. It gives people an opportunity to rethink what they think of as legacy.”
