With its in-house software solution GEK-Client, the Gmünder
Ersatzkasse can at any time provide its nearly 2,000 users with a
comprehensive overview of all relevant information with regard to
member relationships. As the SQLWindows application would crash
with alarming regularity, on some days several times, and as the
outlook for long-term development of the Gupta tool was unclear,
the software was in urgent need of modernization. In particular the
lack of modularization was frustrating the GEK developers. Using a
multistage approach and the Porting Project tool-based service, the
necessary migration to the more modern .NET environment was
successfully implemented, despite projects that could not be
postponed.
In only a few days, fecher returned the deliverable: the code had been fully ported to .NET and it was executable. With another provider, we had to wait for several weeks. And what they then delivered, did not even work properly.
