Why Legacy Systems Break Businesses (And What to Do About It) | The Disruptors #2
Legacy systems aren’t just outdated — they’re operational handbrakes.
In Episode 2 of The Disruptors, Ritesh Shah and Julian Wallis unpack the hidden cost of clinging to legacy systems. From internal custom-built platforms to bloated off-the-shelf ERPs, they explain why duct-taped fixes create long-term liabilities — and how leaders can escape the cycle.
They cover everything from sunk cost bias and tech debt to poor architecture and misused tools. You’ll also learn how to prioritise the right problems, avoid vendor-driven decisions, and architect your systems for long-term scalability using API-first thinking.
Whether you’re planning a rebuild, dealing with fragmented operations, or trying to protect future enterprise value — this episode will help you reset your thinking.
Every topic ties back to one idea: PSV Thinking™ - If your system doesn’t drive profit, scale, or value — it’s working against you.
Key Takeaways from this Episode:
● Most legacy systems stay in place due to fear, not logic
● Tech debt compounds when duct-taped fixes become the norm
● Starting with the wrong problem guarantees transformation failure
● API-first architecture makes future upgrades easier and cheaper
● You can’t fix adoption after launch — stakeholder involvement starts day one
● Even the right tools fail when used to solve the wrong problems
