Corero Migrates Leading Education Management Software Product from Magic (uniPaaS) to .NET with Firefly Migration
This ambitious application modernisation will support Corero's continued growth and strengthen its unique product offering.
PETACH TIKVA, Israel, November 12, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
Firefly Migration, provider of automated conversions of Magic/uniPaaS-based applications to Microsoft .NET, announced the completion of a successful migration for Corero Business Systems, now a Civica Group company.
Corero's Education Management System (REMS) is in daily use at over 40 education establishments in the United Kingdom, covering key operations such as enrolment, course planning, timetabling and exam processing. Using Firefly Migration's 100% automated solution, Corero was able to release an enhanced, .NET-based version of REMS, to all of its customers, within an astonishing eight month period.
After many years of development using the Magic platform, Corero looked for a modern platform to enhance system functionality, expand development capabilities and bring all of its products under a single development platform. Firefly Migration provided the best proof of concept for a platform upgrade, presenting a fully functional .NET-based version of REMS.
Corero's seamless migration to .NET required no development freeze, allowing Corero to provide continuous support to its customers while its team of Magic developers underwent Firefly Migration's specialized .NET training. "Corero's team of five long term Magic programmers has become an extremely productive group of C# developers who are very happy with the new platform," said Mike Stansfield, Product Development Director at Corero. "Our migrated, .NET-based application has gained better functionality and works faster. Microsoft's development tools allow us to develop better and provide higher quality products for our customers," he added.
"Firefly Migration's solution was the perfect choice for Corero's move to the .NET platform. The migration process was quick and painless with the constant support of the Firefly Migration team," said Corero's Managing Director, Bernard Snowe.
