Visual Basic 6 Migration to the Cloud

Your desktop system
no longer keeps up with the business

VB6, Delphi and Access still run,
but the environment changed. Here are the symptoms:

Only runs on old Windows versions; one update and it stops working.
It has to be installed PC by PC, with its OCX errors.
You depend on whoever wrote it, and almost no one touches it anymore.
There's no access from your phone or from outside the office.

This is NOT for you if...

Your VB6 system is small, never changes, and you're fine with that
You only want someone to tweak a small detail in the .exe
You want to stay on desktop and just move to a different PC
You want to replace it with a generic off-the-shelf tool without migrating your logic
Your system only runs on a PC with an old Windows version

And every Windows update is a threat that it might stop booting.

The person who wrote the system is no longer available

No one dares to touch the code and any change is a risk.

You need access from several branches or remotely

Today you depend on the PC where the executable is installed.

Runtime errors, missing OCX or DLL components keep appearing

And every new install is a fight with outdated dependencies.

What kind of desktop
systems do we migrate?

Applications in Visual Basic 6 with installable executables
Desktop systems in Delphi
Databases and forms in Microsoft Access (.mdb / .accdb)
Custom software with OCX, DLL or discontinued dependencies
  1. We map your current system: screens, logic and database.
  2. We identify what to keep and what to rebuild better.
  3. We rewrite the app in modern, maintainable web tech.
  4. We migrate your historical data (including the Access database) to the new system.
  5. We train your team and keep the old system as a fallback.

From the installed .exe
to the browser in the cloud

We migrate the logic your team already knows,
without PC-by-PC installs.

No more .exe: it runs in the browser.
Simultaneous multi-user access.
From desktop and mobile.

Frequently asked questions

Can I migrate a VB6 system if I no longer have the source code?

Yes. If you have the source code, we use it as a reference to speed up the discovery phase. If you don't, we reconstruct the logic from the running system and from the database. It takes more work, but we do it regularly.

Can the Access database be migrated to the new system?

Yes. We migrate the Access data (.mdb / .accdb) to a modern cloud database like PostgreSQL, preserving the full history. We validate the data with your team before the final cutover.

Why does my VB6 system stop working when Windows updates?

Visual Basic 6 and many of its dependencies (OCX, DLL, runtimes) have been discontinued for years. Each new Windows version is less compatible with those components, which is why you get errors or the system just won't start. A web app doesn't have that problem: it runs in the browser.

How long does it take to migrate a desktop system to the web?

It depends on the number of screens and business rules, but a typical VB6/Delphi/Access migration takes 8 to 16 weeks. Your current system keeps running normally throughout the entire process.

Will my team have to relearn the whole system?

No. We design the app respecting the logic and flows your team already knows, so the transition is smooth. We include in-person or video training and post-launch support.

What technology do you use to replace VB6?

Modern, mature web technologies: React or Next.js for the interface, Node.js or Python for the backend and PostgreSQL for the data. Everything in the cloud, with automatic backups and enterprise-grade security.

Your VB6 system isn't the problem.
It's the foundation for a web version.
