Migration Services
OpenCrowd's Migration Service helps clients migrate to open source products in a cost effective and risk managed manner.
Challenges
Open source software has emerged as a competitive alternative to closed source software that many business are benefiting from using. After identifying adoption opportunities and selecting an open source product, clients are faced with the challenge of migrating existing systems to a new platform.
Migration costs and adoption risks are often seen as limiting factors which may cause adoption to stall. TCO analysis and organizational readiness requirements must account for all adoption impacts to accurately assess adoption benefits, costs, and risks. Even with this analysis, there are risks associated with introducing new technologies into an existing infrastructure. These risks can only be mitigated with experienced help and requires working across business, application development, and systems operations stakeholders.
