Our development teams are working tirelessly to provide as much value as possible in every new FlexNet Manager Suite release. Releases are timed based on customer input regarding their scope, urgency around specific features, and implementation timing, among other factors. Based on that input, instead of a 2021 R2 release, our team plans on continuing to work on key features and release them in the upcoming 2022 R1 release.
There are many considerations we had to make to come to this decision such as:
- The 2021 R1 release was just delivered in August
- Some additional key enhancements have been requested for early 2022
- Most customers aren’t in a position to start upgrading to a 2021 R2 release in December due to change freezes at the end of the year
Due to these reasons, we have decided to postpone the 2021 R2 release and deliver even more value in the 2022 R1 release in April of 2022. In turn, the 2022 R2 release will be moved up to October 2022 to allow you to upgrade before the change freeze kicks in.
We want to ensure you that we will continue working hard to deliver the most value possible in the 2022 R1 release. If you have any questions, please reach out to your CSM who can arrange a call with one of our Product Management team.
These changes do not impact the cloud release schedules so IT Assets in Flexera One will continue to be updated as per the existing cadence.
