What happens when Zendesk announces a feature removal?
Once an announcement has been made, the only noticeable difference is that Zendesk will no longer make enhancements or improvements to the feature.
Our intention with an announcement is to let you know that Zendesk is making a change, and to help you as early as is possible if you are impacted by that change.
Learn more about milestones in How much notice does Zendesk give for feature removal.
What communication will Zendesk give for feature removal?
We want to make sure everyone is notified of the removal and any new functionality that replaces it. We will use multiple channels of communication to notify customers, including an announcement in this Help Center, email messaging for account owners and administrators, and in-product messaging.
Learn more about our communication in How Zendesk communicates feature removal.
Is there a way I can keep the old feature or functionality forever?
In short, we're not able to do that. Once the removal date is reached, Zendesk will begin removing the feature from our service. To provide our customers with the highest level of service and functionality, our platform must keep pace with current security, privacy, and regulatory requirements, as well as offer functionality that is highly available and easy-to-use.
Over time, our service must evolve. By necessity, this means some technologies we rely on today will become incompatible with service requirements in the future. When that happens, we will work hard to minimize the impact to you.
