How we safely migrate mission-critical XP systems without downtime
Published by Neil on
ven in 2025, Windows XP is still running in the background of many organisations. From specialist lab equipment to factory controllers and financial platforms, XP often underpins systems that are too critical or too risky to simply switch off.
But here’s the problem: these machines are fragile. The people who built them may have long since moved on, the hardware is ageing, and replacement parts are scarce. Yet they continue to support essential workflows every single day.
That’s where Nelop | Legacy Systems comes in.
We specialise in safely migrating XP and other legacy environments to modern, supported platforms without downtime and without disruption to daily operations. Our approach focuses on:
- Isolation first. We protect the legacy system from external risks before making any change.
- Hardware replication. We create exact, working replicas of your XP machine, either virtually or with refreshed hardware.
- Incremental transition. Migrations are staged and fully tested so your teams never lose access to the systems they depend on.
- Compliance built-in. We align with your regulatory and audit requirements, ensuring confidence at every step.
The result is continuity. Your mission-critical system remains available throughout while the underlying risks of relying on old hardware are dramatically reduced.
At Nelop, we believe businesses shouldn’t have to choose between stability and modernisation. With the right expertise, you can have both.
If you’re running XP or another legacy platform and want to explore your options, let’s talk.
