Found something unsupported?
A single platform can often move in one fixed-price 30-day sprint from A$50,000, and the Migration Blueprint confirms whether yours fits before you sign. Larger estates move in consecutive sprints, each signed off before the next.

Dates are checked against vendor sources when this page is updated. Vendors occasionally extend support, so confirm the dates that apply to your licences before making decisions.
What does end of support mean?
End of support is the date after which the vendor stops shipping regular fixes, including security patches, for a product version. Some vendors sell paid extensions for a limited time; after those end, there are no fixes at all.
Is it illegal to run unsupported software?
Usually not, but it can breach contracts, insurance conditions, security frameworks such as the Essential Eight, and regulatory expectations for managing information security. Unpatched systems are also a common entry point in cyber incidents.
Where do these dates come from?
From each vendor's own lifecycle pages and announcements, linked in the sources section. Microsoft publishes dates in US Pacific time, so they can fall a day later in Australia. Always confirm against your own licence agreements.
Is my selection sent anywhere?
No. The checker runs in your browser. Nothing is sent unless you choose to contact us, and then only the platform names appear in your enquiry.
