What Does Microsoft End of Support Mean to me?

This means that once a product reaches its 'Extended Support End Date' there will be:

  • No patches
  • No security updates
  • No support from Microsoft

If you're using any of these products and do nothing, it's almost certain that your risks around security and compliance will increase, which may also impact productivity. These risks will only grow over time, so it's vital you take action. We're here to help. Contact us for more information.
