Modernize the legacy. Keep the roadmap moving.
Legacy software does not have to stop working to start holding your team back. Releases slow as system knowledge fades and integrations become harder to manage. Eventually, the architecture gets in the way of cloud, AI, and product initiatives.
Sherpa Legacy combines Proshore engineers with AI-supported modernization workflows to help understand and evolve existing software without putting the current product on hold.
Your team stays in control while Proshore adds capacity and Sherpa helps the work move faster.
When the software still works, but changing it gets harder.
Most legacy systems do not suddenly fail. Friction builds gradually until maintaining the existing product competes with moving the business forward.
Slower releases
Changes require more effort and coordination before they can safely reach production.
Knowledge trapped in the system
Critical architecture and technical context becomes concentrated in a few engineers.
Harder integrations
Older architecture makes connecting new platforms, services, and capabilities increasingly expensive.
The roadmap gets blocked
Maintenance consumes engineering capacity while cloud, AI, and product initiatives become harder to execute.
Build the context first. Modernize with confidence.
Modernization becomes risky when engineers have to rediscover the system before they can safely change it.
Sherpa Legacy brings AI-assisted system understanding together with Proshore engineering expertise, so modernization happens with better context and less guesswork.
1.Understand
Build context around the codebase, architecture, dependencies, and technical debt.
2.Validate
Strengthen documentation, testing, and system visibility before major changes.
3.Modernize
Refactor, replatform, extract, or rebuild the components where change creates the most value.
4.Monitor
Keep production signals, issues, and engineering context connected as the software continues evolving.
Modernization without another transformation layer.
Large modernization programs can make already complex systems even harder to manage. Proshore works inside your existing engineering environment instead.
Your team keeps ownership
Your internal team stays in control of product direction, architecture, and priorities.
Proshore adds capacity
Experienced engineers work alongside your existing organization instead of creating a detached transformation team.
Sherpa strengthens the workflow
AI-supported analysis, documentation, testing, and engineering context help the modernization team work more effectively.
Built around production software. Not AI demos.
Sherpa Legacy grows from modernization and engineering problems Proshore teams have already encountered in real software environments.
SiteGuru
De Heus
Proof of phased modernization
SiteGuru had a backend developed over years, an aging CakePHP stack, increasing development friction, and growing scalability pressure.
Proshore moved the platform toward Laravel and microservices in phases, with old and new systems operating alongside each other so customers could continue using the product.
DPL
Udea
Where the tooling story began
Proshore engineers were already dealing with the friction of debugging, testing, understanding, and evolving live software inside the DPL environment.
Internal engineering automation developed around that work helped shape the tooling story that evolved toward Sherpa Legacy.
Find out where modernization should start.
You do not need to commit to a major transformation program to understand where your legacy software is holding the business back. Start with a Sherpa Legacy Scan.
The Sherpa Legacy Scan is a low-risk entry point into a broader modernization engagement. Start by understanding what is actually getting in the way. Then decde what deserves to change.
