ubb / Unique Business Basic Free report

Free report · No card, no sales call

Find out what runs.
Before you decide anything.

Send us a tarball of your programs — programs only, no data. We run them through the same parser that has already digested 5,079 programs and 536,000 lines of production Business Basic, and we send back exactly what parses clean, what needs attention, and what a migration would actually involve.

Nobody has ever been able to answer this for you. Now it takes a minute.

What it costs
Nothing. There is no card, no trial clock and no salesperson attached to it.

01 How to send it

One command, and you're done.

Your programs are text. They're a few megabytes. Everything sensitive — your customers, your orders, your pricing — lives in the data files, and we don't want those yet.

01

Tar your program directory

Whatever your programs live under — the whole tree, including any customisations and overlay directories. Source only.

02

Upload it

Straight through the browser. If it's easier to send another way, or you'd like an NDA in place first, say so and we'll arrange it.

03

Read the report

Program-by-program results, the gaps called out by name, and an honest assessment of what your migration looks like.

02 What comes back

A real answer, not a brochure.

Every program, pass or fail

A line per program. Not a percentage — the actual list, so your developer can look for the one they're worried about.

The language surface you use

Which verbs, functions and terminal mnemonics your code actually leans on, and how that maps onto what the runtime covers today.

The things that need a decision

Vendor-encrypted programs we'd need source for. Report-writer output that gets rewritten rather than emulated. Named, not buried.

What a migration would involve

Shape and effort, based on your corpus rather than a generic estimate. If it's a bad fit, the report says so.

03 Your source code

We know what you're handing over.

Thirty years of your company's business logic is not a lead magnet. Here is exactly what happens to it.

Deleted

Within 90 days, always

Your upload is removed within 90 days whether or not we ever speak again. Only anonymous aggregate counts survive it.

Never shared

Not with anyone, for any reason

It is not used to train anything, not shown to another customer, and not passed to a third party.

Yours

You keep every right to it

Uploading changes nothing about ownership. We receive only the narrow permission needed to parse it and write your report.

NDA first

If you'd prefer

Ask before you upload and we'll sign one. It's a normal request and it doesn't slow anything down.

How we handle customer data

04 Before you ask

The four questions everyone has.

Q1Do you need our data files?

No. Not for the report, and not until much later. Programs are text and they're small; your data files are enormous and full of your customers. We only need those once you've decided you want a system stood up in parallel — and by then there's usually an NDA and a signed assessment in place.

Q2What if some of our programs are encrypted?

That's common — most sites have a handful of vendor-supplied programs they never got source for. The report names them rather than silently skipping them. Some can be obtained from the original vendor, some are no longer used at all, and some need a conversation. It's rarely the blocker people expect.

Q3Is this actually free, or is it a sales call in disguise?

Actually free. The parse is automated, so it costs us close to nothing to run — which is exactly why we can give it away. You'll get the report whether or not you ever reply to us. If you want to talk afterwards, the report will have given you much better questions to ask.

Q4What if the report says it won't work?

Then it says that, and you've learned something valuable for free. We would rather tell you now than discover it three months into a migration. A vendor who won't show you the gaps is hiding them.

Takes a minute

Send us your programs.

No card, no clock, no salesperson. Just the answer you haven't been able to get.
