If you’re a ParityFactory customer using SQL2016 or an earlier version, now would be a good time to consider updating your SQL subscription. Soon, we will discontinue support for SQL2016.

Those using SQL2016 will be able to upgrade to ParityFactory 170, but subsequent ParityFactory versions will not be available. 

At ParityFactory, we are committed to providing the best solutions and support for our customers. This decision to discontinue SQL2016 support is part of our ongoing efforts to align with industry standards and offer you an optimized and secure experience.
