Question

Do Esko products support the latest versions of macOS?

Answer

macOS High Sierra (10.13) was released on .

macOS Mojave (10.14) was released on .

macOS Catalina (10.15) was released on . 

macOS 11 Big Sur was released on  

As with previous macOS releases, Big Sur is a free and very easy update. However, not all Esko products support macOS Big Sur 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.
