Amazing story. Love your honesty.

Is there a world where you hire someone to build a more maintainable replacement?

It really wouldn't solve the main problem which is that the product itself isn't really needed or that great, code quality aside.

Or maybe they're a bit disappointed it isn't that great, but who wants to onboard off back to hand made Excel sheets? Or spend time learning another tool. I've got very low churn so I guess it's all fine.
