Continue Getting the Support You Need
Many organizations require further support after sustaining support. For an additional cost, you can receive support for legacy versions of ApplicationXtender and AppEnhancer products through Extended Support. Available for select product releases, this option provides flexibility in timing your migration to newer product versions. If your environment will not be completely upgraded to supported releases by the sustaining support date, we recommend you immediately upgrade your contract to include Extended Support, if available. In doing so, you can ensure uninterrupted technical support while you seamlessly complete your upgrade.
If you have any questions or are interested in a maintenance contract, contact MetaSource Technical Support. We can discuss your ApplicationXtender and AppEnhancer support options, upgrades paths, and the feature differences of one version to the next.
