Notes: Sage: Version 12 receives continuous maintenance only if customers stay current by applying the regular update releases; since 2023 a new Version 12 release ships twice a year (R1 in spring, R2 in autumn). Release-level maintenance dates are in Sage's lifecycle knowledge-base article, which we could not retrieve; the June 2020 policy PDF shows its Version 12 dates only in a table image we could not extract. No date is shown.

What the end of support means
- Mainstream support usually includes bug fixes, security updates and (for ERP) regulatory and tax updates. When it ends, non-security fixes and new features stop.
- Extended support usually means security updates only. Exact terms differ by vendor and may require a support contract.
- After the final end date the software keeps running, but the vendor no longer ships fixes or security patches. Known vulnerabilities stay open, and compliance or cyber-insurance requirements may treat it as unsupported software.
Upgrade paths
Re-platform to a different ERP
An end of support is a natural point to compare other systems, including cloud ERP. Re-platforming is usually a bigger project than a version upgrade, so compare total cost over several years, not just the first year.
Stay put for now (with risks)
The software keeps running after support ends, but without vendor fixes, tax/regulatory updates or security patches. Third-party support, where available, is not vendor support and cannot provide vendor patches.
