KB191642592: Do Esko products support the latest macOS Release

Question

Do Esko products support the latest versions of macOS?

Answer

macOS Mojave (10.14) was released on 24 Sep 2018.

macOS Catalina (10.15) was released on 07 Oct 2019.

macOS 11 Big Sur was released on 12 Nov 2020.

macOS 12 Monterey was released on 25 Oct 2021.

macOS 13 Ventura was released on 24 Oct 2022.

macOS 14 Sonoma is announced for fall 2023

macOS updates are free and easy to perform. However, not all Esko products might support the latest macOS yet. Please consult the table to check whether your product is supported.

In a production environment, it is never a good idea to upgrade your Esko workstations to a new operating system automatically. While we do everything we can to ensure compatibility with new operating system releases, you should always check the list of supported products below before you upgrade.
