Developing great software to make your business more competetive

## Ms Access conversion and migration

Ms Access is a great tool for building quick and dirty database systems to use in a small business. However, as the number of users grows, and the technical demands become more complex, you can quickly find that your needs outstretch its' capabilities. There are many good reasons to migrate your Access application to VB.NET, but it can be a complicated process.

Redbrook Technology can help you with migrating your MS Access applications to VB.NET, and create a new, scalable. , and reliable software application that will be able to grow with your business.

### Why should we migrate our Apps to .NET?

There are many reasons to migrate your system to .NET, including -

- Reliability
- Scalability - .NET apps support more concurrent users
- Better performance
- Allows for storing more data
- Better debugging / testing tools
- Improved security

MS Access has certain limitations that are impossible to get around. It is recommended that you have no more than 10 concurrent users on one Access application at any one time. This is a serious limitation to any growing business. If you are using MS Access for the actual data storage, rather than SQL Server, then you may also be facing problems with reliability, un recoverable records, and possible data corruption issues. Building your new application using .NET and SQL server will allow you to forget about the niggly issues that you have had with your Access apps, and focus on developing the software into something that is reliable, responsive, and intuitive.

### Keep control of your software

We can work with you to analyse your current applications, to determine the best path for migrating them to .NET. We may find that several of your smaller existing applications can be integrated into a single .NET application, giving you greater control over the development and rollout roadmap. .NET can integrate with Team Foundation Server, for source code control and bug management, giving you even more control, and a unified system of development coordination.
