We migrate everything from lightweight databases to large, highly customised  applications (forms, views, embedded code, workflow logic). Whether it’s a simple app or gigabytes of of data plus complex of workflows, we’ve got the experience.

Yes, significantly! 

One of the biggest advantages of moving to a cloud-hosted web app is that it’s built on open, widely adopted web technologies. That means no proprietary client software, no specialised Domino expertise, and no dependency on niche development skills.

The platform can be supported by any modern IT team or partner familiar with standard web stacks, APIs, and cloud services. Updates, fixes, and enhancements are simpler to deliver, and you benefit from a much broader ecosystem of tools and developers. 

Compared to maintaining legacy Lotus Notes client applications, ongoing support becomes far more predictable, cost-effective, and future-proof.

Yes,  our preferred platform for many Lotus Notes modernisation projects is Docova. It’s built specifically for organisations looking to move away from Lotus Notes while retaining the flexibility, structure and workflow concepts they rely on today. Docova can be used as a cloud-hosted platform or deployed in your own environment when data sovereignty is a priority.

Docova is designed from the ground up for Lotus Notes-style application migration, which makes it a natural fit for complex, custom-built databases. It supports familiar features like rich forms, views, document-centric workflows, granular security, and attachment handling,  but delivered through a modern, cloud-hosted web interface based on established open web technologies.

We still support migrations to Azure, AWS, custom web apps, SQL platforms and other cloud environments. But when customers want the closest functional continuity with the least rewriting and the most predictable transition, Docova often provides the smoothest and most cost-effective path.

Minimal to none. We plan migrations so you can continue working in the existing Lotus Notes application while we extract, transform, and stage the data. A final cut-over (delta migration) ensures only recent changes are moved. That means users move seamlessly to the new web app with negligible service interruption.

We perform a detailed discovery and mapping exercise to capture every custom field, view, agent, workflow, and UI feature in your Lotus Notes app. Then our migration process refactors or replicates that logic in the new web app. We can preserve 100% of custom workflow, data and security in most cases. 

Our migration service includes code refactoring, to optimise and future-proof the application with additional error handling.

Everything moves. Attachments, embedded documents, version history and legacy records are extracted, transformed and loaded into the cloud web app so no business-critical data is left behind.

Yes. This is one of the key benefits!

We convert the Lotus Notes client experience into a browser-based web application, accessible from laptops, tablets or mobile devices, across operating systems. This enhances flexibility, remote work support and user experience. 

Shifting to a cloud-hosted web app gives you flexible storage and processing power, more predictable costs, easier support since no Lotus Notes client is needed, and a modern platform that’s built to handle future upgrades, integrations, and add-ons.

Our migration process retains your existing Domino security model (ACLs, user/role access, document level control).

The new cloud-hosted web app is deployed with modern security controls and optional Azure Entra ID integration with Single Sign-On (SSO) and Multi-Factor Authenticastion (MFA). 

Every migration stage is fully logged and governed to ensure data integrity, traceability and compliance throughout the project.

Costs depend on the size and complexity of your Notes applications, number of users, cloud target environment and level of customisation. We’ll scope your estate and provide a transparent quote with in-scope vs optional items. Also, we focus on delivering value and a return on your investment through reduced support overhead and modern technology benefits.

Simply contact us to arrange a discovery session. We’ll analyse your Domino environment, identify the Lotus Notes apps and data for migration, propose the target architecture for the cloud-hosted web app, recommend migration software and partners, and produce a statement of work and timeline.
