PowerBuilder Modernization

LSMSoft Modernization Services Overview

PowerBuilder, once a reliable and effective tool for rapid application development, is now considered obsolete by the programming community. Considering the limitations of functionality and the risks of using outdated technology, today Powerbuilder may pose a threat to business effectiveness.

LSMSoft team understands the business challenges companies may have with the lack of scalability and support options of PowerBuilder applications. We provide a ready-made solution to modernize your system and mitigate the challenges caused by the current technology. Moreover, our specialists use additional programs to speed up the migration process so that customers can apply off-the-shelf result in business as quickly as possible. With the help of highly efficient migration services provided by LsMSoft you can eliminate legacy risks and infuse reliability, maintainability and scalability in your application.

Migration

Some organizations decide to move from legacy technologies to modern ones, because they feel lack of industry support of outdated languages, or have difficulty in finding programmers to maintain the existing applications, or realize the necessity to support new performance and security features of the modern platforms.

PowerBuilder represents highly proprietary technology from a single vendor. So it is quite natural not to wait for the end-of-life situation for PowerBuilder and consider moving to open technologies, for example to Java. The choice of the target technology should be compatible with the company’s application architecture.

If you recognized the necessity to leave PowerBuilder in the past, then you may turn to us with request to migrate the code.

We have experience in moving PB applications to Java desktop (Swing) and web (React), to C# desktop (WPF with WVVM pattern), to ASP.NET React. Our team is ready to analyze the feasibility of any other target technology of your choice.
