Case Study: a New York based industrial water hygiene chemical feed and control equipment provider achieves zero-downtime migration to .NET with Macrosoft

FoxPro Business Application to .NET Platform Migration

A New York-based industrial water hygiene chemical feed and control equipment provider faced the challenge of relying on four unsupported Visual FoxPro business applications. With Microsoft having ended all support for FoxPro, the diminishing pool of expertise and the need for a modern, web-based platform drove their need for migration. They partnered with Macrosoft to migrate their systems to the modern Microsoft .NET platform for future business continuity.

Macrosoft executed a detailed migration plan, converting the FoxPro database to SQL Server and the four applications into a single .NET web application using technologies like ASP.NET and C#. The project was delivered in four phased releases using an Agile methodology, ensuring functionality matched the original system. Macrosoft's proven methodology ensured a smooth transition with zero downtime, successfully migrating over 160,000 lines of code and complex reports.
