Legacy cemetery software systems range from platforms that are still actively maintained but no longer adequate, to products that have not received updates in years and run on operating systems that modern hardware cannot support. In either case, the burial records and plot data stored in those systems need to move to a current platform without loss or corruption. CemSites has completed cemetery records migration from a wide range of legacy systems and approaches the extraction and import process with knowledge of the data structures and export formats each system produces.
Plot data migration requires particular attention to the spatial relationships between records and the mapping system they feed. A burial record that is not correctly linked to its plot location in the new system is functionally incomplete, because the record exists but cannot be found through the map. CemSites migrates plot records with their location data intact and verifies the connections between records and map positions before the facility goes live. Cemeteries that want to understand how their specific legacy system would be approached during a migration can raise that question directly with CemSites during an online demo.
