Migration Services

One of XID’s many strengths includes our knowledge and experience in upgrades and migrations.

Migration Processes:
The work we do in our migration projects can be as simple as a data conversion of one subsystem or file to a complete conversion of a major system including shutting the original system down. We can also migrate single applications to new platforms. We have strong experience and methodology in designing an approach for the migration, the data rationalization process, the testing phase and how to stage implementations to minimize the impact on a customer’s business. We have extensive experience in concurrent processing where the old system continues to process and stay current while the new system processes and applies the business transactions.
