Major Drivers for Legacy Modernization
High Costs of maintaining and
enhancing
Unmitigated risk of unsupported
software
Higher time to market
Inflexible and Closed Architecture that
hinders web enabling and integration
Limited options of Hardware and
Software
Lack of skilled resources
Challenges Faced by
Organizations using
Legacy / Progress
Applications

What Next?
Most organizations spend 70-80% * of IT budget in maintenance of
Legacy applications
Only 20-30% * remaining for new business demand and innovation
Challenges in Legacy maintenance allows less saving for new
innovations
The Cycle needs to be broken via
Legacy Modernization








Modernization is the way forward to overcome
