Software Support

Isode’s Policy on support of software releases and Supported Operating systems for Isode’s Server Products

Supported Releases

Isode provides full support for Major and Minor releases of its server products, management tools and APIs for five years from the date of release.

Releases have one or more versions, and the version is specified after the release number (e.g. Release R16.6v1 is version 1). These updated versions contain fixes for defects made since previous versions of the Minor or Major release. Upgrading to a new version of a release (e.g., R16.6v0 to R16.6v1) should be trivial.

1

Major Releases (e.g. R17)

A Major release has significant changes in one or more of the Isode products, relative to the previous major release. Upgrades to new major releases may need specific upgrade actions, such as running tools to upgrade database format.

2

Minor Releases (e.g. R16.6)

A Minor release has changes to the functionality of the product. Upgrading to this release from another release within the same major release (e.g., R16.3 to R16.6) should be straightforward.
