Sage 200 Versions, Release Dates and Supported Status
Sage 200 follows the guidelines of the Sage Product Support Policy, which states that Sage will provide support for the current and the previous version of Sage 200.
What does this mean?
This doesn’t mean the software will stop working. The software can still be used, but 2nd-line support from Sage is withdrawn, as well as updates in a phased approach. Innov8 will continue to offer support on a best-endeavours basis.
Latest version: Sage 200 Professional 2024 R2
As new Sage 200 versions are released up to twice a year and a corresponding older variant of Sage 200 moves into ‘end of support’ status, whilst another version enters a status of ‘extended support’. This is detailed in Sage’s support policy and is standard industry practice. You can check your version against this handy table below.
Tip: If you’re not sure which version you are using, click on the Cog (Settings) button at the top right of the main Sage 200 screen and select About Sage 200. Compare your version number (e.g. 12.00.0041) to the Database Version in table below.
