Technical Debt

In today’s fast-paced business world, software is the backbone of many operations. But what happens when that backbone starts to creak? Is your software becoming a weak link in your business chain?

The Hidden Costs of Neglected Software

Many businesses focus on new development, leaving existing software to languish. This approach can lead to:

  1. Increased downtime
  2. Security vulnerabilities
  3. Compatibility issues with newer systems
  4. Decreased productivity
  5. Higher long-term maintenance costs

The Importance of Ongoing Maintenance

Regular software maintenance isn’t just about fixing bugs. It’s about:

  • Keeping your systems secure
  • Improving performance
  • Ensuring compatibility with new technologies
  • Reducing technical debt
  • Extending the lifespan of your software investments

The folks at Durable Programming did an exceptional job recovering and updating our broken tool (coded years ago in Ruby on Rails).

Invest in your software’s longevity. Your future self (and your bottom line) will thank you.

In complexity-obsessed world software development, there’s often a rush to create new, cutting-edge applications. But what happens to the older systems that businesses still rely on? At Durable Programming, we’ve made it our mission to be the go-to experts for maintaining and upgrading legacy systems.

Why Legacy Systems Matter

Legacy systems are often viewed as a burden, but they represent years of accumulated business logic and processes. These systems are frequently critical to day-to-day operations, yet they’re often overlooked when it comes to maintenance and upgrades.

Our Approach

Unlike many firms that focus solely on new development, we pride ourselves on our ability to work with existing systems. Our team of skilled programmers specializes in:

  1. Bug fixes and upgrades
  2. Performance optimization
  3. Integration with modern systems
  4. Code refactoring and modernization
  5. Thorough testing across different environments

Flexible Services

We understand that every legacy system is unique, which is why we offer flexible service options:

  • Set monthly hours for ongoing maintenance
  • On-call support for urgent issues
  • Focused sprints on specific areas of the codebase

Reducing Technical Debt

Working with legacy systems isn’t just about keeping them running - it’s about improving them over time. Our approach helps reduce technical debt, making systems more maintainable and adaptable for the future.
