Onboarding and offboarding

Getting started
A Proof of Concept engagement will demonstrate your application functioning on your target systems. The solution is then implemented in your private cloud (or Hybrid combination of Physical and Virtual appliances), and your Legacy application(s) are imported into the system. Operational training to cover deployment is given, along with packaging training to allow administrators to add further applications as required.
Service documentation
Yes

End-of-contract data extraction
There is no user data retained within the virtual appliance. User access control is via your corporate AD. Any data related to the functioning of your legacy application is handled by either live integration with your internal database systems or by folder redirection.
End-of-contract process
Licensing will reduce the functionality of the legacy system and alert your administrators.
