View the Status of Your AX Version & Upgrade Paths

First launched in March 1995 by OTG—then later acquired by Legato, EMC, Dell, and now owned and developed by OpenText Corp.—ApplicationXtender (also AppXtender and AX) is one of the most popular and effective document management software applications of all time.

Below is a summary of each AX version, when it was launched and end of support life (EOSL). Some versions feature an extension of the EOSL that is first supported by ApplicationXtender engineering then as part of a “best effort only.”
