.NET Framework
to .NET Core Migration
Services
Even though .NET Framework isn’t yet legacy technology, its core functionality is no longer suitable for building competitive software solutions. New versions of .NET Core and .NET have almost replaced the .NET Framework with cross-platform abilities, making the transition to a modern stack inevitable.
That’s where our .NET Framework to .NET Core upgrading services come in to help companies with a smooth process.
Why Should You Migrate from .NET Framework to .NET Core?
.NET Framework was released in 2002 as a desktop-focused framework for building and running apps on Windows operating systems. Years later, the brand-new .NET Core versions stole the limelight due to their versatility and effectiveness. The .NET Core tools come with open-source capabilities and are compatible with Windows, Linux, and Mac operating systems.
Microsoft eventually struck the final blow to the .NET Framework when they announced that the .NET v.4.8 would be the last release of the framework. This step put all stakes on .NET Core and unified .NET.

Cross-platform compatibility
Large talent pool and community support
Supports a wide range of application types

.NET Framework to .NET Core Migration Process
Unlike most outdated technologies such as AngularJS, the .NET Framework to .NET Core migration and upgrading services come with detailed documentation prepared by Microsoft. While this move should make the migration process much easier, it's not without its challenges.
A fully automated migration is more or less accompanied by issues such as apps complexity, dependencies, outdated libraries, and third-party integrations. These factors severely complicate .NET Framework to .NET Core modernization services. One way to make your migration process smoother is to partner with a third-party organization that has vast experience in this area.
At ModLogix, we’ve dealt with complicated .NET migrations over the years and created a reliable framework for upgrades.

Frequently Asked Questions before .NET Modernization Projects Kick Off
.NET Framework is outdated. All the previous versions released by Microsoft, including .NET framework 4.5.2, 4.6, and 4.6.1, got phased after reaching the end of support on April 26, 2022. It’s therefore imperative to hatch a .NET Framework to .NET Core migration plan and implement it to upgrade from legacy technology. In return, this means increased performance, patched security flaws, and new features that lower customer churn risk. Contact us to get started today.
