You know how every so often, some store puts the newest X-Box, iPhone, etc. out on display before its time?

Honestly, that was my guess since it wasn’t announced at Insights this year.

So does this mean that there will not be an application that we can download and run instead of using the website? We currently have Kinetic, and everyone is using the application in the kinetic style.
You’re on prem, you guys could ride on Classic UI for a year or two after us SaaS suckers are forced to move.

Frightening? Enlightening? Somewhere in between?
More like “tech support full employment act”… but it doesn’t really fit the sentence structure very well.

But we still maintain an upgrade cadence at least once a year.
Stopping to remain on classic is a recipe for its own disaster.

That’s probably what we’ll try to do as well…every 1-1.5 years…it’s an undertaking with all the testing and whatnot.
And this was once the Thunderdome…and now it has no roof… 
That is correct. Kinetic 2026.1 and beyond (as of this announcement) will ONLY be available via the browser. There will be no more Smart Client.

I just hope the 2026.1 rollout goes better than 2024.1.

It’ll be just fine!
We all will. Just a bit of change that we’ve had plenty of exposure to over the prior years.

I, for one, welcome our new robot overlords.
Death to classic!

That is going to be quite the change for us and our users. I was really hoping the smart client would stay, but oh well.
(well… If I was still an Epicor user)
