Beta program overview
This beta program aims to assess the readiness of our 12.10/3.1.0 release - this includes the product changes, APIs, upgrade process, and supporting documentation. We offer the new release in a dedicated test environment during the beta program. Clients are expected to complete six to eight weeks of testing before their production environments get updated to the 12.10/3.1.0 release. Clients will continue testing for another three to four weeks in their production environment. Our product team will provide direct support during this time to all beta clients.
