How To Migrate Your Existing FoxPro Based Business Software Successfully?

Are you aware that 90% of the FoxPro migrations fail? Yes, it’s true! Foxpro Migration is a tedious and complicated IT procedure. Microsoft is not providing official support since 2015 and many senior FoxPro professionals have moved on to different technologies or formally retired due to lack of projects.

To add on, both FoxPro and Visual FoxPro have a non-linear code structure where front-end, back-end, business logic, and reports are coupled at one place and it is not easy to extract the business logic.

Without business logic, the business analyst cannot gather specifications and prepare a change document to help the present IT developers for quick migration. The complexity of UI in the FoxPro frameworks makes it tough to analyze and gather the business logic from the code.

The majority of the FoxPro application software have millions of lines of scattered code lines. Due to the lack of proper code structure and complexity of FoxPro applications, not every IT consultant can timely migrate the user details, sensitive customer data, transactions, and other records easily.

You need to hire a FoxPro Consultant who has proven track record in migrating small, medium, and large FoxPro/Visual FoxPro applications for other clients.

This business move will definitely help you save millions of dollars apart from time which is the most crucial part in business growth.
