Just to be clear:There are no plans, written or otherwise to deprecate the Kinetic Product Configurator. Of course, that could always change in the future if something changes
( reference safe harbor statement
)
Also note that before we deprecate anything, we have promised to give at least one-year notice of when such deprecation is to take place… again… the product configurator is not on this list at this time.
@scline, I think your tactic of converting one department at a time is great logic… but I would also suggest that you start working on the sales team to get the configurators converted, but also in parallel work on some of the easier ones (purchasing, Accounting) to get more headway while you uplift the configurators.
Also, coming in 2023.2, we will have what is called “Browser First” mode which allows you to lauch everything from a browser, and if you still have some smart-client based customizations, the browser will still launch the smart client form. This makes running from a browser easier and therefore migration of those people who only need one or two screens from the smart-client easier to implement.
