Additional product notes

  • *ArcMap 10.8.x
    ArcMap 10.8.x enters mature support on March 1, 2024. During this phase, we will no longer provide functionality-based patches or hotfixes. Please note that 10.8.x is the final series of releases for ArcMap, and there are no plans for additional releases in the future. However, Esri may, at its discretion, make efforts to address critical, exploitable security vulnerabilities if commercially and technically feasible during the mature support phase. It's important to be aware that ArcMap is aging software that includes several 3rd party components with limited support. Consequently, there may be limitations on what we can address. We strongly encourage our users to transition to ArcGIS Pro as soon as possible.        
  • ArcGIS Desktop extensions carry the same product life cycle as the main ArcGIS Desktop product.
  • ArcGIS Engine and extensions carry the same product life cycle as the main ArcGIS Desktop product.
  • ArcGIS Pro is a part of ArcGIS Desktop, but due to its frequent releases, it will have its own life cycle, which will be separate from the life cycle of ArcGIS Desktop.
  • All service packs, patches, and hot fixes that are available for a particular version have the same support status as the version they address.
  • Dates listed in a support column indicate when the product entered that support level.
