Software upgrades are the third inevitability in life, but the right partner can make it less painful. With XT support discontinued, if you have not upgraded to XU then the countdown is on. At HighPoint Solutions, we have worked closely with Siperian to develop a custom, streamlined methodology designed specifically for XU upgrades. Our HighPoint Upgrade Methodology (HUM) provides a structured upgrade approach that focuses on guaranteeing business continuity and solution integrity.

Upgrade Methodology
We believe in delivering rapid, economical, and high-impact solutions. Our focus is to have a zero-defect approach for final cut over that emphasizes the three most important upgrade activities: testing, testing, and more testing.

Key aspects and activities of our methodology include:

  • Baseline project plan developed with Siperian
  • Hardware and third party software assessment
  • XU baseline impact assessment
  • XU feature opportunity matrix assessment
  • Multi-pass repository upgrade approach
  • Full regression testing of standard and custom processes and integrations
  • Zero-defect approval for cut over plan dry-run testing
