Safeco's Safe Bet on Artinsoft's Vb to .net Migration Solution to Insure Their Technology Investment

SAFECO has more than 17,000 partners, including independent insurance agents, brokers, investment advisors and wholesalers. For 2001, its annual revenue was $6.87 billion. The challenge for SAFECO was to determine the viability of upgrading this strategic application to take advantage of the technological advantages .NET offers while retaining the valuable business logic and functionality of the PLRS software. SAFECO, in conjunction with Microsoft, turned to ArtinSoft, the industry leading enterprise software migration and upgrade specialist. ArtinSoft developed for Microsoft the Visual Basic 6.0 to Visual Basic .NET Upgrade Wizard that is included with Visual Studio.NET, and has been working with Visual Studio .NET and the .NET framework for years.
