Project Summary

An insurance-focused software company hired Rheal Software to migrate an aging VB6 desktop application to modern technologies (Visual Studio) and to build a web-based application that interfaces with it. Rheal rebuilt the mission-critical Windows application, created the web interface, and used Visual Studio and SQL Server. The delivered software has been used by clients for nearly 15 years, with the client praising Rheal's quality, timeliness, and communication.

Key Challenges

  • Upgrade a legacy VB6 application to a modern platform
  • Develop a web-based application that interfaces with the existing Windows program

Project Deliverables

  • Windows application rebuilt in Visual Studio
  • Web-based application integrated with the Windows program

Project Solution

The vendor rebuilt the client's legacy VB6 application using modern development tools and created a web-based application that interfaces with the desktop program.
