I rewrote 12k Powershell application for a previous job. Thing was ugly, full of errors, but they had been using it forever.
Turned it into a webapp. It didn't last three weeks. The users didn't want change. My app was able to increase speed by about 10%, management wanted it. But the guys in the call center didn't like it. Unlike the redesign in this article, I spent a year using that Powershell app and was very familiar with how it was used and its shortcomings.
There is something to be said for just wanting the status quo.
