Limited Support (new applications): ITS Support Eagle Helpdesk staff may not yet have access to, training on, or experience with these designated products. Availability to manufacture's support resources may be restricted, limited, or non-existent. Resolving problems likely will take longer and sometimes may go unresolved. It is recommended that only users with computing expertise or those who have a specific need use products identified as "Limited Support".

** Phase Out Limited Support: As hardware, operating systems, applications, and network clients age, access to manufacturer's support resources becomes restricted, limited, or non-existent and support knowledge wanes with the frequent turnover of staff. A designation of "Limited Support" may take significantly longer to resolve or may go unresolved. It is recommended that faculty and staff begin to evaluate their older/legacy products for upgrades or replacement purchase - to remain within the defined "full support" window.
