You can explain this to company 2 as the difference between a clean and manageable solution costing X dollars or a convoluted solution that will cost 2 to 3 times as much. That should help them make the right decision.
If only it was that simple. I left my last company because change was next to impossible, even when change made sense and saved money. The lifers that worked there just didn't want to change, hence the finance software was still running on NT4, at least we did get to virtualize that and get it off the dying hardware.
Sigh
