The cost of staying
The licence is the smaller cost of a closed vendor system. With AI, a change to software is now fast to make. A closed system holds back every improvement your own people could make, because only the vendor can change it, on the vendor’s timeline and price. Every integration with your other systems waits in the same queue.
What Substrait does
Substrait’s team rebuilds the system you want out of, on Substrait. You own the data and the software. Your people can build alongside the team, and keep improving the system after go-live.
| The legacy system | Rebuilt on Substrait | |
|---|---|---|
| Your data | In the vendor’s system and format | Yours, in a system you own |
| A change request | A quote, then a wait | Your people, or Substrait’s team, with no vendor queue |
| Your other systems | Little or no connection | Connected, with access the data owner approves |
| Who can improve it | Only the vendor | Your own people, on Substrait |
Two checks before work starts
- Substrait rebuilds what you use. The team maps the functions your people rely on, and promises those.
- The vendor holds nothing besides code. If the vendor holds content rights, a supplier network or a regulatory approval, the team tells you before work starts.
How it starts
- Tell Substrait which system it is, and what it runs in your business.
- Substrait’s team maps the functions your people use, and how the system connects to the rest.
- You get a plan: what is rebuilt, in what order, and the estimate.
- The team builds it on Substrait, with your people alongside where they want to be.
