Android Migration
With the Windows End of Life date approaching, 100% of your Windows CE applications will need to be replaced. There is one big plus to Android migration, however. Starting from scratch gives you the opportunity to completely customize your applications and ensure that you are getting a product that works best for your business. Making investments in new technology can be expensive and time-consuming, so it is important to consider all of the factors that go into migration.

The question is, how do you know when it’s time to make the switch? It may take some time to develop before you reach deployment. Martin Jack recommends that you “give yourself enough runway to take a look at your Window CE applications. Start from scratch, focus on what Android has to offer the new platform, and start with a fresh look at your applications.”
