Web-enabling Legacy Applications
Despite advanced internet interaction and cutting-edge technology, there is still an incredible amount of legacy software being used in the core functions of corporations and companies all over the world.  While this typically saves money initially, using these terminal-based programs requires specific terminal emulation software for anyone trying to access the legacy programs.  Logic Method IT can help you keep legacy technology functioning and ensure the integrity of your company data.  Our web enabling legacy applications can save you time and money.

Why Does Your Business Need Web Enabled Legacy Applications?

Legacy applications work; that’s why you keep them.  But access can be limited, and this can be detrimental to your business.  Using older technology can help cut costs, but converting them to web enabled applications with Logic Method IT can:

  • Provide global access to data and systems.
  • Enhance communication with employees, associates, and customers.
  •  Simplify data flow.
  • Save money over building a new application.

Web Solutions

There are a variety of web enabled legacy application solutions.  We will help you find the solution that meets your needs.

  • Web-to-host. This solution turns the user’s browser into a terminal emulator.  The terminal interface remains the same; it now resides with the browser window.  The user is able to access and interface with the legacy program as if they still had the terminal software installed on their computer.  Web-to-host technologies are perfect for administrators as it allows them to execute command line arguments from remote locations.
  • Rejuvenation.  This approach removes the terminal aspect by converting it to an HTML format.  This gives the users some of the functionality of the modern internet, including point-and-click commands over typing obscure commands.  This “rejuvenates” the look of the program, but not how it operates.
  • Legacy integration.  This approach utilizes web applications and integrates them with the legacy program.  This gives the user a recognizable browser interface and the added functionality of the web applications.  This is the last step of conversion before the company decides to replace the legacy program.

Logic Method IT’s design and development teams will develop the right solution for your legacy programming to ensure seamless operation and a more streamlined approach to data and access.
