Point-of-sale or POS systems have been working great for the last decades, but as computational technology and businesses across industries keep evolving, those solutions can’t meet growing demands in the best way. Today, legacy POS systems require scalability, modern and customizable UI/UX, as well as straightforward, cost-efficient maintenance.
If not timely modernized, point-of-sale software will restrain your growth.
When organizations consider legacy POS modernization, they typically think of:
We believe that in many cases your legacy POS system is still perfectly viable and can be upgraded.
To strike the balance, we think bringing legacy POS systems into a digital-ready mode is an iterative process. Sure thing, there’s no one-size-fits-all approach, but, commonly, the key is simply to ensure greater flexibility and resolve existing obstacles to achieve long-term benefits.
Every modernization – platform migration, functionality extension, or migrating legacy mainframes to a modern programming language and integrated development environment – might involve costly pitfalls to remember. We believe any modernization is first and foremost about helping business leaders accelerate performance while streamlining the longevity of their point-of-sale software.
Step 1
At the initial stages, we perform an in-depth investigation to identify the core business objectives and constraints. We evaluate the parts that have major impact on growth and strategy and measure their limitations.
Step 2
Next thing, we assess potential approaches by discussing the core business needs and requirements.
Step 3
And finally, we create and approve our strategy by incorporating both determined business and project goals, where we focus on:

POS modernization facilitates performance, security, compatibility, and flexibility in the business landscape. Quite often, legacy applications come with VB6 migration, as many business leaders are still using outdated, VB6-based programs, including enterprise-level ERP, CRM, POS, and CSM systems.
As part of strategic POS modernization, many organizations might approach VB to .NET migration to harness modern features, including productivity, security, compatibility, and others.
Visual Basic Version 6 has been a popular programming language and environment in the late 1990s and 2000s. As its mainstream support was stopped in 2008, business leader have been working on converting their applications to newer programming technologies.
VB6 to .NET migration can be quite complex – it involves code rewriting, addressing potential security issues, updating existing third-party dependencies, and ensuring the product meets current regulatory requirements. But despite the challenges, VB6 to .NET conversion can add extra value when approached along modernization, eventually facilitating overall performance.
We help transforming legacy POS software into modern enterprise-level scalable and secure POS solutions that users can use on desktop, web, smartphones and tablets; with an intuitive modern interface, you can learn without extensive training.
