From a business Excel/Access tool to a real web application

The problem

It's a classic in SMEs: over the years, an Excel workbook or an Access database has become THE company's management system — prices, inventory, customers, scheduling, invoicing. These tools are brilliant because they fit the business perfectly. But they're also fragile:

• One user at a time (or files named "FINAL_v37_def.xlsx" circulating by e-mail)
• No reliable backup, no access rights management
• VBA macros that nobody masters anymore
• One key person: if they leave, the system leaves with them

Our approach: keep the soul, change the engine

1. Immersion in your tool: we use your workbook/database as the specification — it contains your business knowledge, and that's its great value. We map the data, formulas, macros and real-world usage.
2. Rebuild as a web application: ASP.NET Core, a clean SQL database, an interface that respects your habits while fixing the fragilities.
3. Data migration: import, cleanup and deduplication of your historical files.
4. Adoption: familiar interface, short training, and the old file remains accessible in read-only mode during the transition.

What you gain

• Multi-user: everyone works at the same time, with role-based rights
• Reliability: backed-up database, change log, input validation
• Accessibility: office, remote work, tablet on the go
• Scalability: reports, exports, APIs, links to accounting — everything becomes possible
• Independence: the system belongs to the company, not to a single person

Signs it's time

• The file takes 2 minutes to open
• "Whatever you do, don't touch it — we don't know why it works"
• Two people edited the file at the same time — and everything was lost
• The person who built it is retiring
