The Verkada Lifecycle Policy covers products and services across the portfolio that require ongoing support to remain functional and secure.
To keep pace with changing market demands, Verkada will continuously introduce functionally superior products to replace mature product lines in service.
Our life cycle policy is designed to support you as you transition from one product to the next and we are committed to supporting you by communicating key milestones.
