About Software maintenance & modernisation
Has your software become difficult to look after?
You don't need a new system to need a new software team. If any of this sounds familiar, we can help you work out the next step.
- Your original developer has moved on or is no longer available.
- Bugs keep interrupting work, and fixes aren't sticking.
- Small changes have become slow or difficult.
- Your system needs updating, but the business still depends on it.
An established system. A practical path forward.
Auditz Stay Safe relies on an established application for its day-to-day work. Philo took over its hosting and moved the existing software onto a Philo-managed platform.
The work preserved the application's existing operation while making its hosting easier to manage and preparing it for future software modernisation.
- Existing application kept in use
- Hosting brought under Philo's management
- A foundation for future software improvements

Keep it working. Improve what comes next.
Start with what your software needs today, with room to develop it as your business changes.
Maintenance you can rely on
Our maintenance includes bug fixes and security updates, helping you address problems and keep your application up to date.
Modernisation at a practical pace
An older system doesn't automatically need a complete rebuild. We assess what is worth keeping and what needs updating, then plan improvements around the people who rely on it.
Room for ongoing development
Depending on your support tier, we can include feature improvements and continual development. That gives you a team to help your software keep pace with the way you work.
A clear handover before we commit.
Taking responsibility for an existing system starts with understanding it. We agree the work and the handover before committing to ongoing support.
Review your software
We begin with a paid review of your application and its current setup, so we can understand its condition and the work involved.
Set out the proposal
We explain our findings and propose the support and improvements that fit your system, with the scope and costs made clear.
Plan the handover
We draw up a handover plan covering access, responsibilities and the transition. Both sides know what is involved before agreeing to proceed.
Hosting looked after, too.
Hosting is available separately and priced according to your application's requirements. It includes real-time monitoring, backups and recovery.
- Real-time monitoring to help identify problems
- Backups and recovery when they're needed
- Automatic recovery from certain faults
- Automatic security updates for the underlying infrastructure
We work across a broad range of technologies, with particular expertise in .NET. Hosting can be arranged for applications built on other technologies too.
Tell us what you have—and what needs to change.
You don't need to know the technical details. Start with what your software does, where you're having problems and what you'd like to improve.
We'll talk through your situation and whether a paid review is the right next step.
