Is your company still relying on command prompts? Is a DOS operating system still de rigueur in your organisation? Is the AS400, born in the year 1988, still considered state of the art by your management? It’s a common scenario: a significant number of companies continue to depend on legacy systems as the backbone of their business operations. Apollo Studios understands the challenges posed by these legacy systems and offers innovative solutions to transform businesses.
Yet, these legacy systems now pose a significant barrier to innovation and efficiency when technology is changing at a breakneck pace. Moore’s Law, predicting that processing power doubles roughly every two years, has not only been uncannily prescient, but it has also finally created the conditions necessary for a quantum shift in what’s possible with technology. Indeed, we’ve all been witnesses to the recent artificial intelligence arms race, contested not only by start-ups from Silicon Valley but also by entire countries. It has become abundantly clear that embracing technology in all its forms is a key factor in whether individual companies in the future prosper or wither. Yet, companies persist with legacy systems for many reasons. Often, the risks and costs associated with overhauling these systems are daunting and deter companies from making the necessary changes. There is, however, a solution that bridges the gap: Robotic Process Automation (RPA).
RPA allows businesses to automate routine tasks across various legacy systems without the need for extensive overhauls, enabling a gradual transition rather than a risky leap to modern technology. This approach significantly lowers operational risks and costs. Moreover, RPA is not just a stopgap; it’s a catalyst for digitisation, streamlining processes, and paving the way for further technological advancements. With Apollo Studios’ expertise in RPA implementation, businesses can streamline their operations and prepare for future challenges.
While RPA may be considered the least sophisticated form of AI, its simplicity is its strength. It’s a practical, low-risk gateway to the world of automation and AI, offering tangible benefits without the need for deep technical knowledge or substantial upfront investment. In essence, RPA is the workhorse that can carry your business into the future, one automated step at a time. One of the key benefits of RPA is that there is no need for deep integrations, a well-developed API stack, or even for a system to be web-based. That’s why RPA is the perfect technology to bolt on top of your legacy system, which often lacks these tools. Apollo Studios specialises in integrating RPA solutions seamlessly into existing legacy systems, ensuring a smooth transition process.
For all the business leaders who are not quite ready for a complete overhaul of their current operating system yet want to transform their legacy systems into engines of growth and innovation, Apollo Studios stands ready to guide you on this transformative journey. While there is no doubt that an overhaul will be necessary at some point, we do not believe that this journey needs to be binary, a 0 or a 1. By using RPA, we can bridge the gap between the old and the new in a way that minimises the risk to the business and fosters a renewed culture of innovation and positive change. With Apollo Studios as your partner, you can navigate the challenges of legacy systems with confidence and pave the way for a brighter, more technologically advanced future.
