AgilePoint is ending Internet Explorer support. Here’s what you need to know.

The recent launch of AgilePoint v8.0 has introduced many powerful new features and strategic changes designed to simplify your business operations and make process automation effortless.

One such change is the announcement that AgilePoint v8.0 will no longer support the use of the Internet Explorer browser: IE 10 + 11 and earlier versions.

Why are we discontinuing support for IE?

We did not come to this decision lightly. The fact is: Microsoft stopped supporting older versions of IE in 2013 and has been running IE 11 in maintenance mode only since 2016.

From a development standpoint, IE simply cannot support modern technology requirements. This forces developers to write custom code to run in the IE browser environment, while supported browsers use open code standards.

Unfortunately, this code discrepancy directly impacts AgilePoint’s stability, performance, and your user experience.

How does this affect you?
