You just brought back some painful memories. At an old company of mine, I helped migrate a legacy system to SAP (of all things!), and they fought it every step of the way.
Well, management did. Every other phrase they uttered was "The old system did it this way" or "I used to just press F2". The pushback to learning something new was unreal.
Nevermind the fact that multi-step processes were reduced to a simple button click. Or that inventory and customer management were orders of magnitude better. The old system!! The old system did it another way!
