Struggling with Legacy Systems? Here’s How T-Plan Modernises Outdated Infrastructure Without the Cost of Replacement 

Legacy systems are the backbone of many organisations—but they often come with a heavy burden. In sectors like finance, healthcare, manufacturing, and government, these long-standing systems remain essential, yet their age and complexity make integration with modern automation tools incredibly challenging. As a result, teams are left relying on manual workarounds that are time-consuming, inefficient, and prone to error. 

At T-Plan, we frequently hear the same concern: 

“I can’t find anything that works with our old legacy systems. Everything’s labour-intensive and a massive drain on time.” 

If this resonates with you, rest assured—there is a practical, cost-effective way forward. 

Many widely used automation tools, such as Selenium or Appium, depend on APIs and modern software architecture. That renders them ineffective for: 

  • Older systems without APIs
  • Terminal-based or mainframe user interfaces 
  • Bespoke, unsupported applications
  • Mixed environments (e.g., Windows, macOS, Linux)

For numerous organisations, completely overhauling their infrastructure isn’t financially feasible—or operationally safe. 

T-Plan: A Visual Approach That Works Like a Human 

T-Plan’s unique value lies in its image-based automation technology. Rather than relying on code or backend integrations, it mimics human interaction by recognising and responding to the visual elements on-screen. 

No API? No problem. Whether your software is decades old or simply difficult to access programmatically, T-Plan can automate it—effectively and reliably. 

“T-Plan has been an outstanding partner… helping us automate even the most complex portals where no APIs exist.” 
— Marcel Meeuwissen, Let’s Talk BV 

Compatible Across All Platforms—Legacy or Modern 

T-Plan is fully technology agnostic, offering compatibility across: 

  • Windows 
  • macOS 
  • Linux 
  • Mainframes 
  • Web, desktop, and mobile environments 

You don’t need to alter or upgrade your current systems. T-Plan adapts to your environment—seamlessly. 

A Real-World Example: The NHS Saves Hours Every Day 

One of the most compelling endorsements of T-Plan’s capabilities comes from the NHS. Faced with a laborious, multi-step process within a highly secure environment, their team turned to T-Plan for support. 

“A 6-hour process now takes 10 minutes. Our virtual robots have saved time, effort, money and resource.” 
— NHS Automation Lead 

Through T-Plan, the NHS achieved: 

  • A 90% reduction in time spent on key tasks 
  • Significant cost savings 
  • No disruption to existing systems 
  • Maximum data security via on-premise deployment 

A Security-First Solution You Can Trust 

For industries where compliance and confidentiality are non-negotiable, T-Plan offers peace of mind: 

  • Can operate entirely on-premise—no cloud dependency 
  • Keeps all data behind your organisation’s firewall 
  • Supports role-based access control and audit logs 
  • Aligns with regulatory standards including GDPR, HIPAA, and ISO 27001 

Organisations in sectors like banking, government, and defence rely on T-Plan for exactly this reason. 

Eliminate Repetition Without Changing Your Systems 

T-Plan allows teams to automate the tasks they dread—manual data entry, form filling, cross-system navigation—without needing to code or change infrastructure. The benefits? 

  • Greater accuracy 
  • Increased speed 
  • Freed-up resources for higher-value work
