Legacy Accounting Software: How to Make The Best Decision When Faced with Unhealthy Changes and Upgrades

Here’s what we know about legacy software:

Many accounting software companies inside our industry are changing. Some of these changes aren’t good or healthy for your business.

Some of our largest peers are ending support for their legacy systems — as early as December 2024 — and forcing expensive upgrades on you and your petroleum business.   These upgrade costs can range from $250k – $400k.

While others haven’t announced end-of-life dates, these companies have drastically reduced the support staff for their legacy products by 80 – 90%.

Before you make any decisions on upgrading or sticking with your current accounting software provider, I want you to do two things:

1. Review our solution here. There’s a form at the bottom of the page where you can get in touch with us for a free demo.
2. Take a look at what your peers are saying about their experiences with AIMS – read more here.

In reviewing our solution and what your peers are saying about their experience, we promise you’ll never hear the phrase “please hold for the next representative” from the AIMS team.

When thinking about switching from your legacy accounting software, or upgrading it, you must have good support otherwise frustration will set in. It is easy to feel frustrated when reaching out to a support team that wastes time on the phone, having to dial “0” six times to get to a real person.

You want to be considered a priority and not just some number in a calling queue.
