Three steps to happiness...
The 3 steps to start the .NET migration project are easy. First, we provide you with a free evaluation of your Gupta / Centura system with a ballpark estimate of the cost, time and effort. Second, you select to execute a Proof of Concept and a detailed evaluation of your system. Third, we prepare a fixed price guaranteed proposal.
1. Free Evaluation
The first step is a no-risk initial assessment which won’t cost you a penny, and we don’t even need to get our hands on your code. We will provide you with our automated inventory tool. The tool crawls your project tree and generates a XML file that we can use to provide you with a ballpark estimate for the project.
Optionally you can submit a small application, including some reports, if you want to see some of your current Gupta / Centura code migrated to C# or VB.NET.
The end result is a ballpark estimate of the time, effort and potential problems related to the project.

2. Proof of Concept
Once you have approved the estimate, you may select to run a Proof of Concept. This involves a much more detailed analysis of your code based on a trial port of your application. We will also take a closer look at the findings of the PPJ Inventory tool and examine issues in your source code, under a mutual non-disclosure agreement.
This phase involves considerable work for which a modest charge is made – generally £3k - £5k.
3. Fixed Price
The last step is the fixed price guaranteed proposal.
Dataline are supported by the Ice Tea Group – vendors of the Ice Porter migration toolset – and part of a worldwide network of porting partners. Together, the toolset, the collective experience of the partner network and the Ice Tea Group are known as the Porting Project. It is the backing of this strong community which allows us to say with confidence that your success is guaranteed.
The final goal is a successful project and we never forget it.
