<\/use><\/svg>Software Rescue<\/span>

Has your software been left orphaned<\/span>? We put it back in production.<\/h1>

The developer is gone, the system is stuck ten years in the past and every update is frightening. We analyse the existing code, secure it and move it onto modern technology \u2014 without stopping your work.<\/p>

Request a free check-up<\/use><\/svg><\/a>or book a call<\/a><\/div>
<\/use><\/svg>Answer within 48h<\/span><\/use><\/svg>NDA on request<\/span><\/use><\/svg>ISO 9001 certified<\/span><\/div><\/div>

Does any of this sound familiar?<\/p>

<\/use><\/svg><\/span>Whoever wrote the software no longer answers<\/span><\/div>
<\/use><\/svg><\/span>Nobody knows where the source code is<\/span><\/div>
<\/use><\/svg><\/span>It runs on a server nobody dares touch<\/span><\/div>
<\/use><\/svg><\/span>Every change takes weeks and breaks something else<\/span><\/div>
<\/use><\/svg><\/span>Documentation: none<\/span><\/div><\/aside><\/header>\"\"

What we see most often<\/p>

Abandoned software:
three typical scenarios.<\/h2><\/div>

None of them is beyond recovery. The first step is always working out what is really under the bonnet.<\/p><\/div>

<\/use><\/svg><\/span>

The developer vanished<\/p>

The freelancer or the agency is gone. The software runs, but nobody can touch it \u2014 and the passwords are a mystery.<\/p><\/div>

<\/use><\/svg><\/span>

A system frozen in time<\/p>

Unsupported technology, browsers throwing warnings, system updates that risk shutting the whole thing down.<\/p><\/div>

<\/use><\/svg><\/span>

Security and data at risk<\/p>

No verified backup, shared logins, known vulnerabilities. One incident and the company stops.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/section>

\"\"

How we work<\/p>

Four stages,
no leap in the dark.<\/h2>

Every stage produces a document that stays yours. You can stop after the first one, if all you want is to know where you stand.<\/p>

01<\/span>

Analysis<\/p>

Code, data, dependencies and risks: we find out what is really under the bonnet.<\/p>

Output: audit report<\/p><\/div>

02<\/span>

Securing<\/p>

Verified backups, tidy access control, critical vulnerabilities closed immediately.<\/p>

Output: a stable, monitored system<\/p><\/div>

03<\/span>

Porting<\/p>

Gradual migration onto a modern, documented stack, module by module.<\/p>

Output: a maintainable codebase<\/p><\/div>

04<\/span>

Evolution<\/p>

New features and ongoing support, with clear retainers.<\/p>

Output: a shared roadmap<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>

What you keep<\/p>

After the rescue,
the software is yours.<\/h2>

No opaque dependencies: we hand over code, credentials and documentation. If one day you want to change supplier, you can do it without starting again.<\/p>

Request the check-up<\/use><\/svg><\/a><\/div><\/div>
<\/use><\/svg><\/span>

A readable audit report<\/p>

State of the software, risks and priorities \u2014 written for management, not only for engineers.<\/p><\/div><\/div>

<\/use><\/svg><\/span>

Code and credentials<\/p>

A tidy repository, tracked access and reproducible environments.<\/p><\/div><\/div>

<\/use><\/svg><\/span>

Data safe and portable<\/p>

Verified backups and a restore procedure that has actually been tested, not just declared.<\/p><\/div><\/div>

<\/use><\/svg><\/span>

Ongoing support<\/p>

Monitoring and interventions with agreed response times.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>

Where to start<\/p>

Three ways
to begin.<\/h2><\/div>

You do not have to decide everything up front: most clients start with the check-up and choose afterwards.<\/p><\/div>

Step zero<\/p>

Free check-up<\/p>

A 30-minute call and a look at the software: we tell you whether it is recoverable and what you are risking today.<\/p>
