Every business has one critical application it relies on every day, whether it's its CRM, EMR, donation tracker, or quoting system. It’s the digital engine behind how you serve customers and generate revenue.
However, many Central Texas organizations are still running legacy versions of that software, which are five, ten, or even fifteen years old.
The Hidden Costs of Legacy Applications
It’s easy to say, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” But in today's fast-moving business landscape, that mindset comes with serious risks:
-
Security vulnerabilities that leave your business exposed
-
Slow performance that frustrates your staff and customers
-
Compatibility issues with modern platforms and integrations
-
Lack of vendor support, putting you at risk for outages
-
Missed features that could 10x productivity
Your legacy app may still “work”—but is it working for your business?
