With the recent announcement that Ivanti DSM will be discontinued as of December 31, 2026, hundreds of companies are facing a decisive turning point. The clock is ticking for anyone currently reliant on this system and the need to migrate to alternative software distribution solutions is becoming increasingly urgent.
This transition is not just a question of updating technology, but also an opportunity to improve the security and scalability of the IT infrastructure. But one challenge inevitably stands in the way: the availability of qualified service providers to support this critical migration process.
The challenge: a race against time
With the end date set for Ivanti DSM, a race against time begins for hundreds of companies. Migrating from one comprehensive software distribution system to another is no small feat – it requires careful planning, testing and execution. The complexity increases when you consider that every application, every package and every setting must be carefully transferred to the new environment without disrupting daily business processes.
The bottleneck: availability of service providers
While the demand for migration support will increase dramatically over the next few years, the supply of qualified service providers is limited. These experts are critical to the success of the transition as they provide not only technical expertise, but also strategic insight into optimizing and adapting the new systems to specific business requirements. If you wait too long, you risk being left without the necessary support, which can lead to delays, increased costs and potential business interruptions.
