The 3 Biggest Reasons Customers Upgrade their Color Matching Software

Your color matching and quality control software are mission-critical for your business. You rely on it daily to match, formulate, and correct recipes, and to analyze and communicate color information throughout your supply chain.

So, it is understandable that you may not want to take the time out of your production cycle to upgrade the software. But don’t put the update off. Software upgrades are important to the overall efficiency of your operation.

Here are 3 reasons why it’s time to upgrade your outdated software:

  1. The cost of not upgrading is just too high

    While you are holding on to the older version of Datacolor software running on an outdated Windows platform, your IT department is left to manage the risks of running EOL (end-of-life) software:

    • Security vulnerabilities - No more security fixes being issued by Microsoft means older Windows servers are full of security hazards.
    • Higher operating costs - The costs of maintaining and bug-fixing any post-EOL software can be steep.
    • Poor performance and reliability - Your out-of-date software will not be able to keep up with newer computing technology and is no longer being supported by our experts. If you experience any kind of IT outage, data will be lost, productivity will be reduced, and the downtime alone could be more costly than an overdue upgrade.
