The ‘Windows 7 Application Migration Checklist’ contains useful tips and
insights into App-DNA’s experience with the previous six Microsoft OS and
Service Pack migrations. A quick and easy read, it offers significant value
by helping enterprises to save time and effort.
“Windows 7 is a stable next-generation desktop OS. Getting there needn’t
be a nightmare,” says Mike Welling, CEO of App-DNA. “Most applications will
migrate with no issues - you just need to know which ones need help.”
Quick and efficient migration is a priority for enterprises because the
costs associated with a badly executed migration can be onerous. Therefore
it pays to get as much information and planning done with plenty of time to
spare. The Windows 7 Application Migration Checklist provides a simple
framework for a successful, trouble-free migration, under the headings
discover, analyse, plan and validate.
In addition to this it offers helpful resources and tools for IT staff to
use in the planning and execution of their migration. Tips include: what the
initial stages should involve, how you can leverage your assets for business
as usual, and the ways that targeted testing saves time and money.
“We are seeing interest in making the move to Windows 7 ramp up very
quickly in the Enterprise space, so we wanted to share a list of the steps
which we know are key in getting applications migrated to the new platform
as quickly and efficiently as possible,” adds Mike Welling.
“We’ve worked on a huge number of these migrations already, and if done
properly, it can be pain-free and risk-free, enabling companies to quickly
reap the benefits of Windows 7.”
