Organizations have invested significant time, money and effort in developing Microsoft Access databases that perform critical business functions. However, lacking the reliability, security and performance of an enterprise application, these databases are slowly but surely falling into the realm of legacy IT applications. Hence, many firms are looking to replace them with web-based Managed Applications that can be centrally managed and updated.
With 25 years of experience and the largest client base of 500 clients in 30 countries, CIMCON Software is a recognized market leader in End User Computing (EUC) Management, and has developed specialized expertise in migrating Access databases to web-based managed applications. Our library of software tools and experience allows each Access database to be migrated in the most efficient and optimal manner possible.
