Testimonials

June 2007 Susan Mason of Mitchells Roberton Solicitors

We recently had occasion to call upon the talents of Adrienne Turner of Legacy Support.
Our project involved a Windows data conversion to Unix format which we know to be a rare request. Adrienne's knowledgeable and unfazed approach smoothed our anxious feathers and allowed the project to be completed without delay or mishap. 
Her expertise prompted us to ask another task of her,  to recapture some data from an old server which had not been accessed since the year 2000. She managed this with minimum fuss. We cannot speak too highly of Adrienne; her whole approach was refreshing, professional and inspired confidence.

December 2005 Stephen Fleming of Gordons Solicitors

"Following a merger in May 2004, we were introduced to Legacy by TFB as part of a project to integrate the case management and accounts systems for the merged practice.  It was of paramount importance to us that the financial data in particular was merged in accurately and Legacy were key in ensuring this happened.  They impressed us from the start with their in-depth knowledge and excellent project management.  The data conversion was completed on schedule, with virtually no post-implementation issues, which underlined the quality of the work Legacy carried out for us."

October 2004 Jamie Watson of Ramsdens Solicitors
"We first came into contact with Legacy when Ramsdens were migrating our accounts system to TFB's Partner for Windows, which in our case was no ordinary data conversion. We also needed to use the client database from our existing case management system which did not have any relational links in place. Legacy went above and beyond our expectations and ensured that we had the best possible data in the new system. As there were financial transactions Legacy provided us with all the relevant exception reports and made sure all the figures balanced.
We are now 3 months since the go live date and we have both accounts and case management system that are by two different companies and essentially share the same client numbering structure. Without Legacy's understanding and hard work on this project I am sure we would not be in such a prosperous situation."

June 2004 Duncan MacLean of Henderson Boyd Jackson W.S.
"We identified LSL as a company having the necessary expertise and experience to assist us with the extraction of all of our accounting data in a format which could be migrated over to our new Practice Management System. Although they played a relatively small part in our overall project, it was a critical part and we were very impressed by the way in which they identified themselves with our aims, and worked very hard to deliver the data accurately, and on time. Those responsible for the management of our data here felt that LSL spoke their language and understood their requirements, and this made the ultimately successful conversion significantly less stressful that it would otherwise have been."

May 2004 Ian Beck of Tods Murray LLP
"When we selected CMS.Net from Solution 6 for our new practice management system, we assigned the data conversion task to Legacy Support Ltd. With their experience of IT systems and practice management in legal firms, they were able to extract data from our Usher U-Legal system, recognise the difference between the Scottish and English accounting requirements and methods and work with the new supplier to ensure that the data was transferred correctly. LSL attended progress meetings and kept to project schedules, so that test and live data was converted accurately and on time."

March 2004 Mark Price, Head of Finance at Brachers
"When we changed Practice Management System we chose Legacy Support to work with Solution 6 and us on our data conversion process. When you change systems your resources are put under pressure and we decided that it was sensible to delegate the responsibility for ensuring that this important aspect of the total project ran smoothly to people who are experts in this field. Legacy know their way around legal data because they have been through the mill of designing and developing PMS systems as well as migrating data out of and into most of the common systems throughout the UK. Not only do they know how the data is held, but they also know what it is used for. Bringing this experience to bear saved a large amount of time and significantly improved the accuracy and reliability of the data to be loaded to the Solution 6 database. This contributed considerably to going live on schedule."
