EOL = end of life: when vendor support stops. Plain-English guide →

Every business platform has an expiration date — the day its vendor stops issuing security fixes. The software keeps running, but from that day you carry the risk alone, like driving past the end of a warranty.

Browse business-critical platforms approaching end of support, then see a realistic selection-and-implementation schedule mapped against that expiration date — so you know whether you have runway or you're already behind.

We're fiercely vendor-neutral. This tool pushes no product and endorses no migration path — it helps you assess the timing fairly, before your current vendor makes the decision for you.

The three dates

Vendors retire software in stages: first new features stop (active support ends), then security patches stop (end of support — the real deadline), and sometimes a paid extension is available (extended support).

The start-by date

Replacing a business platform typically takes 6–24 months of selection and implementation. We count backwards from end of support to show the last responsible day to start — waiting past it means negotiating with no leverage or paying for extended support.

Dates are typical midmarket planning ranges, not guarantees — confirm with the vendor.

Two coverage notes:
Hyper-V has no separate end-of-support date — it's part of Windows Server and retires with the release it ships on. The Windows Server rows above already cover it.
 is tracked through Windows Server, and
Dell and HPE set server end-of-support per unit, based on its service tag and purchase date — so a generic table would be a guess, and we don't publish guesses.
 dates are specific to each unit's service tag — ask us to pull the dates for your serials →
Before the clock runs out

Before you let your current vendor pick your next platform, get an independent read.

A 30-minute briefing with a former CIO, CTO or CISO costs nothing and usually changes the question you're asking. We run the selection with you — vendor-neutral, on your timeline.

Not sure which version you're on, or don't see your platform? Tell us — we'll help you place it.
