Sybiz Vision Classic End of Life
Face the future with the latest ERP solution
Businesses today must maximise every tool available to respond faster and more effectively to supplier, customer and stakeholder needs. Your business solution is your most critical tool.
Sybiz's Classic solution no longer has the capacity to keep up with changing business needs and evolving technology. Development for Sybiz Vision Classic ended on 31 December 2020 as the first stage in a process of deprecation. Support for Sybiz Vision Classic ended on 31 December 2021. New licenses for Sybiz Vision Classic have been set to the equivalent of read-only mode as of 1 January 2026.
The modern version of Sybiz Vision, available on premise or in the cloud, contains functionality that can propel your business potential, vastly streamline everyday tasks, or open new opportunities. And with the Classic solution reaching end of life, now is the time to make the transition.

Frequently asked questions
Regular releases have introduced significant new functionality such as CRM, Service Management and mobile integration. However, improvements and new features are added all throughout the year. You can see all the incredible enhancements and new features introduced in each release of Sybiz Vision from the What’s New page.
Many users have found Sybiz Vision has reduced the need for multiple systems, thereby reducing costs and improving accessibility.
And with Sybiz Vision also available in the cloud, you can truly take your business to new frontiers.
Accessing new functionality isn’t the only reason to keep your business technology up to date. Updating also means staying on top of hardware requirements, meeting compliance regulations, and protecting yourself against cybersecurity threats. Properly securing the financial solution that drives your operational performance every day should be a major consideration for every business.
Furthermore, the increasingly outdated technology that powers Sybiz Vision Classic is not fully compatible with the latest Microsoft operating systems, including Windows 11, and may lead to problems if running on new hardware.
Earlier versions of Sybiz Vision Classic (up to version 11) have been undergoing a gradual process of deprecation since 2016. The deprecation of Sybiz Vision Classic version 12 was the final stage in this process and began with the end of any future development (bug fixes, legislative updates, new functionality, etc.) on 31 December 2020 and the end of support on 31 December 2021.

Speaking to your Authorised Business Partner is the first step.
Our Authorised Business Partners have already completed conversions for thousands of users across the globe, helping them navigate the differences between solutions and minimise disruption to business operations.
Because transitioning to the new Sybiz Vision means more than just changing software.
The process of upgrading typically involves discussion and planning with your Business Partner around:
- Change management
- Improving reporting procedures
- Streamlining processes
- Customisation
- Staff training
Consultation with your Business Partner means you can find a strategy to transition functionality how and when it suits your staff.
Every business uses Sybiz solutions differently, from minor tweaks to highly specific processes. Sybiz Vision users can take advantage of a combination of custom grids, breakpoints, workflows, reports and pivots, or integrations with other software that assist them in achieving their unique operational goals.
Urgent action is required. Your Sybiz Vision Classic software will cease to function when your current license expires!
