What should you know

  • This is a gradual process, starting with a final release of the product in June 2019 and followed by a five-year maintenance mode period.
  • The final device pack will be released with the 2019 R2 release in June 2019. Most new devices will still be compatible with XProtect Express and XProtect Professional via our ONVIF drivers.

 

  • The products are available for new sale until June 2022 and for expansion until June 2024.
  • The products remain safe and well-functioning. Customers will continue to get security patches and bug fixes during the maintenance period if we detect a severe or catastrophic issue.
