Exchange 2010 End of Support – Time to migrate to Office 365 or Exchange 2016
Exchange Server 2010 will reach end of support on January 14, 2020. If you haven’t already started thinking about your migration from Exchange 2010 to Office 365 or Exchange 2016 now’s the time.
What Does End Of Support Mean For My Organization?
All Microsoft products have a support lifecycle during which Microsoft will provide new features, bug fixes, and security fixes. The typical Microsoft product lifecycle is 10 years from the date the product was RTM (released to manufacturing). Therefore, when Exchange 2010 reaches its end of support on January 14, 2020, Microsoft will no longer provide:
- Bug fixes for issues that may impact the stability, usability, or performance of the server
- Security updates for vulnerabilities that will make the server vulnerable to possible security breaches
- Time zone updates
- Technical support for critical issues that may occur
You can continue to run Exchange 2010 after January 10, 2020, however, we strongly recommend that you migrate from Exchange 2010 as soon as possible and Priasoft can help make the transition smooth and painless regardless if you’re moving to Office 365, Exchange 2016, or Exchange 2019.
