Legacy Modernization Via Web Enablement

A Safe, Economical, and Effective Option

Web enablement can jump-start your legacy modernization efforts in ways that other methods cannot. The rapid advance of web application technologies means that it’s easier than ever to build an updated, full-featured UI for web enabling your legacy applications. And with the right tools this method is tremendously useful in building new applications for your mobile workforce.

This solution portal offers a variety of resources to help you quickly improve the user experience via web enablement. You’ll find new ways to save time and money, while retaining the skill set and application workflows that you already have.

Why Attachmate?

Because Attachmate has been providing web enablement solutions since the advent of web technologies in the mid ‘90s, our proficiencies have kept pace with the modernization challenge. And we are proving conclusively that legacy systems are not as “locked up” as commonly believed.


With the Verastream design tool, you can maintain complete control of the selection process when converting green screens to web GUIs.

Imagine: What if you could …

  • Interact with your legacy applications via a new, streamlined interface? 
  • Extend the life of your enterprise applications using in-house technologies and skill sets? 
  • Quickly create and modify application workflows as needed, without risk to your legacy systems? 
  • Maintain access and control over the new provided workflow to ensure specific, safe uses?
  • Leverage your legacy applications right where they are, to avoid downtime and customer-service glitches?
  • Give users a productivity-enhancing interface that eliminates green-screen navigation (and that forest of “sticky notes”)? 
  • Provide customized HTML access to host applications for your mobile workforce?

With Verastream rejuvenation and web enablement solutions, you can do all that, and more.
