UPK End of Life - Free Scoping Workshop

In January 2018 Oracle announced the withdrawal of Support for User Productivity Kit (UPK) with no further development or major feature releases following version 12.1. However, in July 2018 Premier Support for UPK was extended to December 2022.

If you’re still using UPK for your IT projects, there’s a lot to consider when deciding whether to continue using the tool beyond December 2022, or to replace it with an alternative. The Licence cost of a replacement tool is not the biggest investment to consider - updating or replacing your UPK content will likely be your greatest challenge.

What can Larmer Brown offer?
Having worked with many UPK clients to assess their options, we can provide impartial advice on the best approach for your business, including evaluation of alternative tools and the migration or re-development of your existing content. We are offering our historical UPK clients a two-hour Scope Workshop, free of charge. The objective of this personalised session is to provide you with an understanding of your options, as well as an indication of timelines and costs. This Service is without obligation and offered on a first-come basis.

We have over 30 years UPK technical and development experience and appreciate how much the tool has to offer, and how difficult it could be to replace it within your organisation. Having undertaken extensive investigations into finding a suitable replacement for UPK, we can offer you advice on how best to manage UPK end of life and migrating to an Oracle UPK alternative, as well as making the most out of UPK in the interim.

Our free UPK Guide offers advice to help existing UPK Developers utilise the tool to its full potential, including some suggestions for enhancing your existing content and making the most out of UPK's many features. Our recent blogs also provide guidance on how you might consider revamping your UPK content and extending the life of the UPK Knowledge Center.
