Advance notice: Important lifecycle dates for Sophos UTM and the SG series

Hello,

Good day and thanks for reaching out to Sophos Community

You may reach out to your local Sales Engineer / Sophos Partner for this engagement. 

Have a nice day and thank you for choosing Sophos.

Cheers,

hello Raphael, we are using UTM9 and we are confused if we upgrade our utm's to SG series, could you give us more information about that

Hello,

UTM 9 is the software/OS and SG Firewall are devices, SFOS are the OS for XG/S Firewalls/devices. With regards to upgrade path and details of the features, I may recommend to best engage with your local Sales Engineer / Partner to have these further discussed. 

Many thanks for your time and patience and thank you for choosing Sophos

Cheers,

If you are still using any UTM Series appliances, they have been EOL for quite a number of years and so are no longer supported - they would definitely need to be replaced. One option for that is to purchase an SG series appliance, if you are not yet ready to migrate and want to continue using Sophos UTM.

The EOL date for Sophos UTM and the SG Series appliances is June 30, 2026 and so you can continue to use the product until then if you have a valid license.

We have gathered some information about the lifecycle in a dedicated section on this community Lifecycle and Migration which will hopefully help to answer some of the questions you have.

You should definitely reach out to your Sophos partner or sales contact for further guidance.

Kind regards

Barbara (Sophos)
