BVMS Software Service and Support definitions

Question

Which are the Software Service and Support definitions for BVMS?

Answer

Compared to hardware, in which it is relatively easy to define an limited support concept based on the expected lifetime, software behaves totally different.

In theory, when the environment does not change, software can still be running ten years after it has been installed. As new versions of the software are released regularly, it is important for customers to know what they can expect from IQSIGHT when the software is purchased.

This BVMS - Software Service and Support Policy.pdf document describes how the life-cycle of the BVMS is handled and in which state a specific release can reside. Additionally this document lists the up-to-date situation for all of those software packages.
