What Is Access-to-Web Application Conversion?

Converting Access to a web application means migrating your desktop database to a cloud-based, browser-accessible system with SQL Server backend. This includes rebuilding Access forms as web pages (React, .NET, or HTML5), migrating backend tables to SQL Server or Azure SQL, converting VBA logic to server-side code (C#, Node.js, Python), recreating reports as web dashboards or PDFs, implementing web authentication (role-based access), and hosting on Azure, AWS, or private cloud. Users access everything through a browser—no Access installation required.

Why Convert Access to Web Application?

Desktop Access databases limit growth: 5-10 user maximum, desktop-only access (no remote work), 2GB size limit, Windows-only requirement, frequent corruption, and slow performance. Web applications eliminate all these limitations: unlimited concurrent users, access from any device/browser, no size limits (SQL Server handles terabytes), works on Windows/Mac/mobile, 99.9% uptime with cloud hosting, and 10x faster performance. Businesses typically enable 20-100+ users, eliminate remote access issues, and reduce IT support costs by 60%.
