Create a modernisation strategy for your legacy .net application
- Views 15
What you get with this Offer
Still running an older ASP.NET, MVC, WebForms, VB.NET, C#, jQuery or SQL Server application?
Before committing to a rewrite or major upgrade, it is worth understanding exactly what you have, what is still working well, where the risks are, and what the safest route forward looks like.
I provide a legacy .NET modernisation strategy service for businesses that rely on older systems but need a clear, practical plan for the future.
The goal is not to rush into a rebuild.
The goal is to assess the existing application, understand the business-critical logic, identify technical risks, and produce a sensible roadmap for modernisation.
This may include recommendations for:
Upgrading the existing application in place
Improving performance, security and reliability
Refactoring high-risk areas
Replacing outdated dependencies
Refreshing the user interface
Migrating to modern .NET
Rebuilding selected areas using .NET, React and TypeScript
Planning a staged rewrite while protecting the existing database and business logic
Requirements
To provide a detailed and useful strategy, I would typically need:
- A walkthrough of the current system and key business processes
- Access to the application codebase
- A database backup or suitable test copy of the database
- Details of hosting, deployment and server setup
- A review of third-party dependencies, packages, integrations and scheduled jobs
- Information about known issues, pain points and recurring support problems
- Details of current users, roles, permissions and critical workflows
- Any existing documentation, diagrams or deployment notes
- Where possible, access to logs, error reports or performance data
- In some cases, setup of a test or staging site so the system can be reviewed safely
In a lot of cases, I get a zip containing code as the previous developer as gone AWOL, that's ok too.
Outcome
You receive a clear modernisation strategy covering the current state of the system, key risks, recommended options, likely priorities, and a practical roadmap for improving or rebuilding the application in stages.
This gives you a way to make an informed decision before investing in a rewrite, upgrade or long-term support plan.
