Version Compatibility and Support Effectiveness

To ensure the highest quality of support, we strongly recommend that customers keep their software up to date. While using the latest version is not mandatory, please note: 

  • Support effectiveness may be limited when using outdated versions 
  • Bug fixes and improvements are typically only available in the most recent releases 
  • Compatibility issues may arise that cannot be resolved without updating
