Legacy App Modernization
Improve your legacy system without compromising business continuity.
Relying on a legacy system is like driving a car with a hole in the tank – it will drain your time, money, and patience until you finally fix or replace it.
But the decision to upgrade is not always so easy. A complete rebuild seems risky, and a complex, outdated system too fragile to entrust to an outside vendor. But trust us, whatever you have, we've probably handled worse.
With our full-stack expertise, software delivery excellence framework, strong engineering standards, and robust project governance, we’ll upgrade your system seamlessly, without disrupting your business operations.
Working together, we'll audit your solution to determine the scope of changes that'll benefit you the most within your time and budget.

What problems we solve
Software agencies can promise anything – 'We'll do this, we'll do that, we'll bring you a star from the sky.' But the truth is, what drives you to look for a software partner are the real problems haunting your business. And what helps you choose the right vendor is their ability to actually solve them.
Slow Feature Delivery
Introducing new features is difficult and time-consuming due to the app's complexity.
Fear of Overhaul
Your legacy system is holding back business growth, but a complete overhaul seems too risky.
Scaling Issues
Your system lacks the scalability to handle increased demand, resulting in performance issues during peak usage.
Outdated Tech
The application you use depends on outdated technologies that are no longer supported, making maintenance increasingly difficult and expensive.
Poor Integration
Your software lacks integration with modern tools, platforms, and APIs, which limits your ability to innovate and automate.
Security Risks
Security vulnerabilities in your old codebase put your business and customer data at risk, but patching is slow and inconsistent.
Software development isn’t just about coding, it's about delivering business value. Knowing this, we base our work on the Delivery Excellence approach to create technologically advanced and business-effective apps.
Continuous Delivery
Short development cycles and frequent deployment to ensure quality and faster return on investment.
Quality
Automated testing and CI/DC for quick bug fixing, reduced rework, and velocity of deployment.

What our Clients say about us
Probably any company would benefit from working with Brainhub, but if you have more complex issues like dealing with technical debt or have some big challenges you want to tackle but don’t really know how, I would definitely think of Brainhub for that.
When we contacted Brainhub, we basically wanted to have the best people on board within the shortest time. So Brainhub was the best partner for us. We don't treat Brainhub's people as contractors but as other team members.
They’ve had a significant impact on how we build our applications by suggesting proactive changes, which we consider valuable.
I haven't found more skilled resources than Brainhub's team. Every Brainhub teammate I've worked with has greatly contributed to our project. I've never worked with a teammate from Brainhub that doesn't meet our performance requirements.
Brainhub is a boutique firm and skilled organization. The team has a rigorous hiring process, and they're very selective.
