Modernizing Legacy Systems Without Breaking the Business

TwinCore helps companies modernize legacy software built on the Microsoft .NET stack with a focus on stability, continuity, and long-term maintainability. We upgrade outdated applications, architectures, and infrastructure while keeping core business logic, data, and operations running with minimal disruption.

Our approach to legacy application modernization is pragmatic: we assess the system, choose the right modernization path, and improve the platform step by step — without forcing risky rewrites or unnecessary technology shifts.

Legacy Software Modernization Services We Deliver

Modernization Assessment & Technical Roadmap

Before touching the code, we start with a legacy system assessment. This includes architecture analysis, dependency mapping, technical debt review, and risk evaluation. The outcome is a clear modernization roadmap that defines what to upgrade, refactor, migrate, or replace — and in what order — to reduce risk and avoid unnecessary rewrites.

Application Replatforming & Cloud Migration

We help replatform legacy applications to modern infrastructure, including cloud migration to AWS, Azure, or hybrid environments. This service focuses on improving scalability, availability, and deployment workflows while preserving existing business logic and minimizing operational disruption.

Refactoring & Architecture Modernization

For systems that cannot be simply lifted and shifted, we provide code refactoring and architecture modernization. This includes breaking down monoliths, improving layering, introducing clearer domain boundaries, and aligning applications with modern .NET and cloud-native practices — without rewriting what already works.

UI Modernization with React or Angular

Outdated user interfaces are often the most visible sign of a legacy system. We deliver UI modernization services by rebuilding frontend layers using React or Angular, while keeping backend logic intact. This approach improves usability and performance without turning modernization into a full system rewrite.

Data & Database Modernization

We modernize legacy databases and data layers, including schema optimization, migration to newer database versions, and performance tuning. This service addresses bottlenecks caused by outdated data models, inefficient queries, or legacy integrations that limit system performance and scalability.

Legacy CMS & Platform Modernization

We modernize legacy CMS and platform built on .NET, including outdated implementations of Umbraco, Sitefinity, Kentico, Orchard, or custom-built CMS solutions. This typically involves upgrades, content structure cleanup, integration refactoring, and preparation for headless or hybrid delivery models.

Support, Upgrades & System Stabilization

Not every modernization starts with a big transformation. We provide ongoing support and stabilization services for legacy systems: controlled upgrades, bug fixing, performance improvements, and operational hardening. This is often the first step before deeper modernization work begins.

Risk-Controlled Legacy Software Modernization

Legacy Software Assessment & Modernization Planning

We provide legacy software assessment services to define a safe modernization path before any development starts. This includes system audit, architecture overview, dependency risks, and a clear modernization plan with scope, priorities, and technical constraints.

Application Modernization with Minimal Downtime

Our legacy application modernization approach is designed to keep systems running during change. We plan modernization in phases, use parallel environments where required, and avoid big-bang releases that put production at risk.

Controlled Migration & Deployment Strategy

We implement controlled migration strategies with staged releases and rollback options. This ensures that changes can be validated incrementally and reversed if needed, reducing operational and business risk.

Regression Testing & Quality Control for Legacy Systems

We deliver regression testing and quality assurance for legacy systems undergoing modernization. This protects existing business logic and user flows while changes are introduced, preventing functional regressions in production.

Performance Optimization During Modernization

We include performance optimization as part of legacy modernization projects. By defining performance baselines and tuning applications during transformation, we ensure modernization improves scalability instead of introducing new bottlenecks.

Security Hardening for Modernized Applications

Our legacy system security hardening service addresses authentication, authorization, configuration, and deployment risks that often exist in outdated software. Modernization is delivered with production-ready security standards in mind.

Frameworks We Modernize as Part of Legacy Software Transformation

Frameworks We Upgrade & Modernize

.NET Modernization

We modernize applications built on .NET Framework by migrating them to .NET 6, .NET 7, or .NET 8. This improves performance, memory management, security, and cross-platform support while enabling modern DevOps pipelines and long-term framework support — without rewriting core business logic.

Angular Modernization

We upgrade legacy Angular applications (AngularJS and outdated Angular versions) to the latest Angular stack. This includes dependency cleanup, module refactoring, performance improvements, and alignment with long-term Angular support cycles to make the frontend maintainable again.

React Modernization

WWe modernize React applications by introducing current best practices such as TypeScript, modern state management, optimized rendering, and performance tuning. This helps stabilize frontend codebases that have grown organically and become difficult to evolve.

Our Approach to Software Modernization

Our approach to modernization starts with a full audit of your current software. We analyze the architecture, codebase, performance, and integration landscape to understand how your system works and where it fails to meet modern standards. This includes assessing code quality, outdated dependencies, UI and UX bottlenecks, and security risks. Based on this audit, we build a step-by-step strategy that aligns with your business goals and minimizes risks. We don’t offer one-size-fits-all solutions - we tailor modernization plans to your existing infrastructure, team capacity, and future scaling needs.
Throughout the project, we provide full transparency: weekly updates, clear milestones, and deliverables you can track. Our goal is not just to update your system, but to make sure it becomes faster, more reliable, and easier to scale as your business grows.

Software Modernization with Minimal Downtime

Software Modernization with Minimal Downtime

One of the most common fears about modernization is breaking what already works. At TwinCore, we eliminate that fear through careful planning and a parallel implementation strategy. We run modernization in isolated environments, test thoroughly, and deploy in stages to avoid any impact on your live system. Data integrity, uptime, and user experience remain fully protected throughout the process. We also prepare rollback procedures and include pre-launch validation to ensure the new system is not just compatible but significantly better. With us, modernization doesn’t mean downtime - it means forward motion.

Legacy System Modernization Expertise

Over the years, we’ve worked with software that hadn’t been touched in over a decade. Many of our clients come to us with systems built on obsolete technologies, undocumented codebases, or infrastructure that no longer scales. We don’t shy away from that. Our team is used to diving deep into complex monoliths, unstable APIs, and old frameworks, then rebuilding them with clean, modular, cloud-optimized architectures. If your current system feels like a ticking time bomb - we’ll turn it into a solid foundation for growth.
We Modernize the Systems Others Won’t Touch
