Products lifecycle fact sheet

Each ORDINAL Software product has a life cycle. The life cycle begins when a product is placed on the market and stops when its support is no longer assured. Key lifecycle dates let you know when to upgrade or other changes to your software.

Support policy

Our COOX support policy promotes the regular release of releases, a key element of the Chameleon product strategy, while regularly offering LTS - Long Term Support - releases offering extended support duration.

The last two commercial versions (a commercial version corresponds to a change of at least one of the first three digits of the version) are systematically supported, to which may be added the LTS versions still in progress.

IMPORTANT: any new license is always delivered in the latest current version. The issuance of licenses for earlier versions is only possible for versions still under support and subject to an active ORDGOLD maintenance contract.

The new rules of support's mode are as follows (see figure and explanatory table above) :

  • The LTS versions have a standard support (5 years) and 5 additional years of support without correction product(Help Only)
  • Normal standard versions have standard support until the release of the next version (N+1)
  • Normal versions pass in Limited support at the time of the versions' release (N+1)
  • Normal versions pass in Help Only support at the time of the version's release (N+2)
  • Normal versions pass to None support at the time of the version's release (N+3)
