Who this is for

  • You're running end-of-life or soon-unsupported Windows desktop or Windows Server
  • A legacy line-of-business application is the reason migration keeps getting pushed back
  • The install media, source code or original vendor for that app is long gone

What is included

  • Windows 7 and Windows 10 to Windows 11 migration
  • Windows Server 2008, 2012 and 2016 to 2022 or Azure
  • Legacy application capture and repackaging, even with no install media
  • Upgrade path assessment and risk planning
  • Secure decommissioning of old systems
  • Phased migration with minimal downtime

What we would do

Prioritise by exposure rather than convenience. Internet-facing machines, anything touching customer data and anything in scope for cyber insurance or compliance move first. The back-office machine that touches nothing sensitive can wait, provided somebody decided that deliberately and wrote it down.

  • If an application is blocking the upgrade, that application is the project. Test it on a real build with real data before committing to a migration date.
  • ESU is a bridge you buy alongside an upgrade, never instead of one. Coverage is cumulative, so waiting costs more rather than less.

When we are not the answer

If you have a clear internal plan, a tested application list and the capacity to execute it, you do not need a partner for this. We are worth having when the application list is the unknown.

What it costs

Scoped and quoted against your estate rather than sold from a rate card. We price what you already run, including the parts that are working and do not need replacing, and the quote itemises what is included so it can be compared line by line with anyone else’s. Managed IT support starts at £40 per user, per month if that is the wider question.

The next step, if you want one

Microsoft estate review. 45 minutes, plus a written summary within three working days. You keep the written findings whether or not you engage us, and there is no sales call before it.

Not ready for that? The full service page is at https://systechitsolutions.co.uk/services/legacy, or call the number at the top of this sheet.

Getting out. Monthly subscriptions need one month’s written notice. Annual subscriptions run to the end of the term, and ending one early carries the balance of that term. Managed services are governed by a signed Services Agreement, which sets its own notice period and is agreed with you before you sign anything. Full terms: https://systechitsolutions.co.uk/legal/customer-terms.

Response targets and the onboarding schedule sit in that Services Agreement rather than on this sheet, because both are set against your estate and your operating pattern at scoping. Ask for them in writing before you sign, and we will put them there.
