Revamp your old software — rebuilt for 2026
Plenty of businesses run on software that's slow, clunky, or held together by spreadsheets and one person who "knows how it works." I rebuild that software on a modern stack — keeping what works, fixing what doesn't, and carrying your data across so nothing is lost.
Signs it's time to revamp
It's built on an ageing framework or old PHP no one wants to touch. It barely works on phones. Every small change is slow, expensive, or risky. The original developer is long gone. Your team fills the gaps with spreadsheets and manual workarounds. If two or more of those sound familiar, a rebuild usually pays for itself.
What a revamp involves
I rebuild your system on Next.js + TypeScript — fast, secure, fully responsive, and easy to extend. The good parts of how you work are kept; the broken parts are fixed. Your existing data is migrated into the new system. Work is delivered in phases, so you're seeing the rebuilt system in weeks, not months. And it's built so future changes are quick and low-risk instead of something you dread.
Migration without the drama
The biggest fear with a rebuild is losing data or downtime. I plan the migration carefully and roll out in phases, so you move to the new system with your data intact and your business running the whole time.
Proof
I've modernized backend systems and rebuilt platforms in education, e-learning, and care services — taking dated or fragmented setups onto a clean, modern stack. (Client details kept confidential.)
50% may be government-funded
Eligible SMEs can co-fund up to 50% of a modernization project through Malaysia's SME Digitalisation Grant or Singapore's PSG. I'll help scope it to qualify.
Pricing
Every revamp is priced to fit the size of the existing system. Send me what you're running now and I'll come back with a plan and a clear quote — no surprises.

Will we lose our data?
No. Migrating your existing data into the new system is a core part of the work, planned carefully before anything switches over.
Will the business have downtime during the rebuild?
The rollout is phased to keep you running. The old system stays live until the new one is ready.
How long does a revamp take?
It depends on the size of the current system, but work is delivered in phases so you see progress throughout rather than waiting for one big switch.
Can you work with our existing system if we don't have the source code?
Often yes — I assess what you have and plan the rebuild and data migration around it.
How much does it cost to rebuild old software?
It depends on the size of the system — every project is priced to fit. You get a fixed quote once the existing system is reviewed.
