In today’s fast-paced business environment, efficiency is key. Many organizations rely on Microsoft Access to manage data, automate tasks, and generate reports—but without expert optimization, these databases can become slow, outdated, or insecure.

This case study explores the digital transformation of a mid-sized B2B manufacturing company's outdated 1990s ERP system built with VB6 and Microsoft Access. Faced with poor performance, limited access, and security concerns, the company partnered with The Farber Consulting Group to modernize the legacy software. The result: a fully web-based ERP solution using ASP.NET Core, MS SQL Server, React, and Azure hosting. The transformation enabled 100% remote access, reduced support tickets by 95%, tripled data entry speed, and eliminated downtime—all while enhancing security and scalability for future growth.

This blog explains why it's time to move from Microsoft Access to SQL. As teams grow, Access causes slowdowns and errors. Learn how SQL brings faster speed, cloud support, and stronger data safety. With simple steps, smart planning, and expert help, your team can switch with no stress. From system checks to secure moves, this guide covers everything.
