Upgrade your database
Break free from limited database software without missing a beat.
After launching in 1992, Microsoft Access revolutionized databases for individuals and small businesses. It simplified database building to an intuitive interface that could interact with other Microsoft Office products. Business owners didn’t need a professional computer coder to organize their data, which led to thousands of users adopting Microsoft Access to handle day-to-day data management.
But what happens when small businesses aren’t so small anymore? What happens when better database management systems hit the market?
The Problem with Microsoft Access
Inevitably, small businesses like yours outgrow their Microsoft Access databases. The software has limited storage space and caps the number of users. Since many Microsoft Access databases are built by non-technical users, the systems become bloated and inefficient as they scale. Users create workarounds to fix immediate problems, but they don’t address underlying oversights that remain in the original rule sets.
A growing business that relies on Microsoft Access is like a cruise ship evacuating its passengers into a liferaft… that keeps springing leaks. The raft was never meant to hold that many people and eventually it will sink.
Unfortunately, many companies are stuck with outdated Microsoft Access databases. If they want to rebuild their existing systems, the person who knows the backend left the company a decade ago. The company also fears a complete database switch; they can’t afford having employees relearn an entirely new system.

Our Microsoft Access Conversion service streamlines your business database without changing the processes you’ve grown accustomed to.
