Streamline application migration
for driving business impact

NGLFly Wizard is a part of the Ispirer Toolkit that handles cross-platform application migration. The tool automatically migrates source code between two programming languages. In addition, the tool can change the architecture of the application, for example, from desktop to web-based.

NGLFly Wizard optimizes the migration process to reduce timeline and ensure high quality of application migration.

How It Works

1. Download and install the tool

To get started with application modernization, you need to install nGLFly Wizard which is a part of Ispirer Toolkit. Register our migration tool with a license key that specifies the period of use, source language, target language, and code volume. NGLFly Wizard runs on Windows from Windows 10, Windows 2016 up to the latest version. The key and links to install the toolkit are automatically sent to your mailbox once you submit a request for a free demo license on our website.

2. Connect to a source application

NGLFly Wizard works with files containing source code. A user determines the files to migrate before the conversion begins. This process is simplified for Delphi, VB, C/C++, and COBOL through detection of project files (e.g. .dpr or .vbp) and automatic selection of linked files.

3. Migrate your application

NGLFly Wizard automates the entire application migration between different programming languages. After selecting the files to be migrated, a user has to specify the migration settings. Then the tool analyzes all the selected files, determines all variables and functions, and starts automated migration.

4. Migration results analysis

Several factors determine the migration outcome including code features, source and target technologies. For a seamless conversion of specific code, we recommend using Ispirer Toolkit customization, which significantly reduces the number of errors and increases the automation level. After the conversion, the migration tool generates a final report that helps to check out and correct errors if any. Unique features of source code sometimes require manual correction performed by our experts. The reports help determine the amount of manual adjustments to be made and allow to achieve optimal migration results.

Why NGLFly Wizard?

Smart migration core

NGLFly migration tool is based on an intelligent proprietary system that analyzes data types, relationships between objects, and reserved words and even code structures that do not have any equivalents in a target technology. This ensures high quality of application migration and reduces the amount of manual code adjustments.

Cost effective solution

NGLFly Wizard automates the process of application modernization that significantly reduces migration time and associated costs. It keeps a client’s involvement in the project to a minimum, thus cutting down expenses even further.

Customize all features of migration

In order to meet the requirements of each specific project, we provide the tool customization options. By adjusting our migration tool to the source system specifics, we can maximize the level of automation. Essentially, it speeds up application modernization considerably.

New opportunities with web architecture

NGLFly Wizard supports several options for working with the architecture. NGLFly Wizard can migrate desktop applications written in Delphi, Informix 4GL, and PowerBuilder into web applications written in JavaScript, Java, C#, Python, etc.

Updated application with no limitations

With our tool, you no longer have to deal with the problems associated with an old application. As a result of an application modernization, you get it in a new language without any middleware required after the migration.

Maintainable code result

Sometimes the source and target technologies are too different, as in the case of COBOL and Java. To handle such migrations, we've developed special frameworks that make it possible to significantly simplify the code generated by the tool. In addition to nGLFly, frameworks are available at no additional charge.

Expert support

Often, migrations are complicated and cause a number of issues. For this reason, our sql migration tool always comes in a package with expert support. Ispirer support agents are always available for helping you with the tool configuration or handling any issues in a timely manner.

Data protection

No Internet connection is required for an application modernization with nGLFly Wizard. The software does not transfer data to third parties, does not modify the original system and works with read-only privileges. Data safety is guaranteed.

Free assessment

An assessment of the migration project determines its complexity and provides a client with an implementation timeline and cost estimation. You can assess your application yourself - the tool is free and available for download.

Come Join the Success

What Our Customers Say

Tim Sexton | Project Lead

"Beckman Coulter provided as much of the information as we could but there was a lot of functionality that we did not know. This is where Ispirer talents became apparent as they forensically reengineered functionality."

George Cavanaugh | IT Manager

"We are now successfully running live on the new system, with the updated PB apps. I want to express my thanks to Ispirer team. You made this project a success!!! I was happy to work with you and would highly recommend Ispirer!"

Vladimir Labar | Software Developer

"Because of Ispirer and MnMTK, our team was able to devote its time to build the infrastructure for new Java programs instead of spending time on converting code. The produced Java code met all our maintainability, readability and performance requirements."

Yoshiro Suyama | Senior Specialist

"This approach was very successful avoiding any confusion at the first stage, and achieved high conversion rate in the end. The project was completed successfully, they say they couldn't make it without MnMTK 2017 and excellent extension support from lspirer."

Eric Kalabacos | Vice President

"At the onset of the engagement the Ispirer MnMTK was expanded to meet the specific requirements of our migration prior to being delivered for our use. Once this phase of the project was complete we were provided with the expanded toolkit."

Erik Johnson | Vice President

"We have found the Ispirer team to be knowledgeable and responsive and we have found the tooling to be flexible enough to be easily adapted to our coding conventions."
