End Of Life / Last Time Sale
All products reach the end of their life cycle for several reasons, including market demands, technology innovation and development-driven changes, or product maturity and replacement with functionally richer technology. Even so, The Kenton Group also recognises that end-of-life (EOL) milestones often prompt companies to review the impact to the products, services, or subscriptions in their networks. With that in mind, we have set out below End of Life milestones for products supplied by us to help manage EOL transitions and to explain the role that The Kenton Group can play in helping to migrate to alternative technology.
Listed below are products that have been issued End-Of-Life or Last-Time-Sale notices from the Manufacturer. Please contact us if you have any questions.
