Hello, Otrs company published that from 1 January 2021 no security updates will be released and the 6.0 is definitively unsupported. https://otrs.com/release-notes/attention-security-risk-with-otrs-6/ Some days ago they updated the SECURITY.md on github https://github.com/OTRS/otrs/commit/f11a60618b59b0dae5252e1a4a3c7efbe551bdea Is it someone informed about what will happen now? The OTRS Community Edition is definitively dead and we need to dispose it as the unique released version is unsupported ad there are no newer version released? Thanks Matteo

Hi Matteo, unfortunately there is no official statement published beside the release notes you've mentioned. There are three english speakinig threads in the Otterhub forum wrt the ((OTRS)) COmmunity edition and alternatives: * https://forums.otterhub.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&p=170682 * https://forums.otterhub.org/viewtopic.php?f=53&t=42228 * https://forums.otterhub.org/viewtopic.php?f=53&t=41628 Kind regards Renée Am 19.01.21 um 11:22 schrieb Matteo Sgalaberni:

I don't think so - just poorly worded. See: https://community.otrs.com/otrs-community-edition-6-patch-level-30/ "October 12, 2020 — OTRS Group, the world’s leading provider of the OTRS service management suite, including the fully managed OTRS solution and the ITIL® V3-compliant IT service management software OTRS::ITSM, today announces the first release of the ((OTRS)) Community Edition 6 patch level 30. Please note that from now on we will **only officially support OTRS 7 and following versions** for regular maintenance. The last supported version for security fixes is OTRS 6."

In that case, should we see a OTRS 7-based community edition in the near future?
Thanks

I'd like to see a clear statement about the Community Edition myself coming from the company. I clearly remember, by the way, that when OTRS 7 appeared the company leaders promised that OTRS 7 will become free after a few years delay. They said the free versions will be about 2-3 years behind the paid versions. That happened on a meeting in Budapest, when OTRS opened a new office in Hungary in the same year when v7 was released. So if they keep their promise - and I expect them to do that - it is about time to make OTRS 7 free. Yours: Laszlo
Thanks

Hi! Disclaimer: I’ve no relation to OTRS company, not as employee, not as customer – only as OTRS 5.x community edition user. All I’ve is informal talks with sales person, and I suppose it cannot be considered “oficial company communication”. Consider all below as mine personal perspective only. I’ve been in touch with OTRS representatives at Brazil, and sales person mentioned that as OTRS eventually would not have community version anymore, and because of that, many companies are considering to subscritbe OTRS 8 to get “all new features” and be safe, of course. In my research, I’ve found that dolar-per-feature in OTRS 8 is high and would require an evalutation of the competitors – found it being as expensive, or even more expensive, compared with products with same level of service for ticket system, and additional tools integrated, like communication tools (SIP, WhatsApp, Telegram, Facebook, etc), project management, CRM, among others. Our company will probably keep OTRS 5.x as readonly repository for historic data/internal use, and in next few months choose subscribing either OTRS 8 or another tool. I do respect OTRS’s company work, and keeping community version is their decision after all. Let’s see.
