This page contains information on the support lifecycle of each version of Patch Manager Plus. After every major release, we support the previous version for a considerable period, allowing users to plan their upgradation or migration effectively. Once a build reaches its End of Support, it will no longer receive technical support, security fixes, maintenance releases, or feature updates from Patch Manager Plus.
A support lifecycle denotes the period from when a version is available for download to when it is no longer supported by Patch Manager Plus. When a version reaches its EOS, Patch Manager Plus no longer provides security updates, features, enhancements, or technical support. Shortly after a new version is released, an EOS announcement is made for its previous version on this page.
We declare EOS to replace the older versions with a better and more secure version of Patch Manager Plus. EOS will be announced 6 months prior to the effective retirement date so that users can plan and execute the version upgradation accordingly. Users are strongly advised to upgrade to the latest supported build before the announced End of Support date to continue receiving updates and support.Patch Manager Plus strongly encourages users running the older version to shift to the latest version.

| Patch Manager Plus 11.3 | 11.3.2400.01 and above | Currently supported |
Patch Manager Plus will not be liable for any security or performance issues caused by EOS versions. Patch Manager Plus's ability to deliver a seamless experience depends on your cooperation to upgrade to the latest version whenever it is available.
