Lifecycle Considerations
Microsoft has indicated that GP will be supported until 2028, with no updates to this date in recent years. While support is expected to continue beyond 2028, it will likely be limited to security updates and tax compliance, rather than feature investments.
There have been price increases on GP maintenance, and new client setups for perpetual licenses will cease by 2025.
These factors suggest that Microsoft is striving to strike a balance between encouraging migration and ensuring continued support for organizations that choose to stay on GP.
