Modernization

We strategize, investigate and evaluate what is the best approach when it comes to your specific project.

St. Louis Application Modernization Services

TJC will bring your application up to date with technologies empowering your organization to regain its full potential. Not all projects require the same modernization plan. Our St. Louis web development team can help strategize, investigate and evaluate what is the best approach when it comes to your specific project.

Challenges of Legacy Software

Without sufficient maintenance, an application can become inefficient and difficult to operate. Although our primary mission is to blend the most forward-looking technologies into your legacy application, we also look for new efficiencies created by these advancements.
Maintaining legacy applications can be a burden to many businesses but are vital for their operation

St. Louis Application Re-Engineering Services

Enhancements to an existing software application can add performance, agility, and new abilities. Our expertise in building and designing software applications and our experience working with businesses can provide insight toward making suitable software enhancements for your business. The improvements made by TJC when re-engineering an application can range from simple modifications to a redesign of critical components.
Approach
When modernizing any legacy application, TJC takes a phased approach addressing each component individually, starting with the most problematic, much to the likening of the ER triage process.
Expand Application Capabilities
Introducing new features into a business application is more efficient and less costly than allowing an application to go stale.
Mitigate Risks
One critical function of any application is security. Keeping up with the latest security techniques and selectively incorporating these measures into the application ensures peace of mind.​

Application Security

Applications need to employ security best practices throughout and shouldn’t be bolted on as an afterthought. Organizations’ increased reliance on cloud infrastructure and the ongoing introduction of new software applications multiply the ways in which they are vulnerable to cyberattacks. Identifying weaknesses and remedying vulnerabilities is a business’s first step toward securing its infrastructure and application footprint.
Security Testing
To help reduce the threat against cyberattacks, we may conduct vulnerability testing and penetration testing to look for any security gaps in the application.
User Validation
TJC can develop custom sign-in methods for software solutions. Our security practice not only authenticates a user from the outside but also includes programmable roles and permissions.
Data Encryption
Essential user data is stored encrypted, and when it needs to be transmitted, a secure protocol is in use.

Software Prototyping

Prototyping a software application can give a business an idea of what the final product will look like before additional resources are committed to finalizing the product. Software prototyping can include the entire software product, or it may simulate selected areas of interest, allowing a business to evaluate workflow effectiveness and determine new improvements for the product. Doing this can help your organization save time, money, and resources. Prototyping allows a business to evaluate workflow effectiveness and determine new improvements for the product.
Early Feedback
Prototyping gives our developers valuable feedback from end-users, stakeholders, and investors before engaging in an all-out development process. Early feedback helps reveal potential issues and obstacles before commencing work on the larger project.
Communication
We welcome your ideas and suggestions during the prototyping phase of your project and look to incorporate them into the application. We know having effective communication and collaboration is key to providing a successful solution.
