Moving from Legacy Software to a New Tech Platform with Ann Pifer and Ryan Jordan of Adopt A Classroom
Listen to this episode with one of these apps:

Custom software isn’t always the right solution, particularly for a nimble non-profit. Adopt A Classroom’s Technology Project Manager, Ryan Jordan, and Executive Director, Ann Pifer, join the show to chat about how to make a massive transition from a legacy platform over to Salesforce, how to adjust an organization’s mindset to be agile, and how to work with users to make sure you are continuing to invest in features that provide the best return on investment.


In this episode, you will learn:



  • The impetus and tradeoffs behind moving an entire software stack to a Salesforce platform

  • How to transition from an old platform to a new platform

  • How to use usability testing and surveys for preparing users for upcoming changes

  • How to pick which features make the transition (and which get left out)

  • How to adjust an organization’s mindset to be agile


This episode is brought to you by The Jed Mahonis Group, where we make sense of mobile app development with our non-technical approach to building custom mobile software solutions. Learn more at https://jmg.mn.
