Although the products will remain available through distribution until March 8, 2024, support for both will cease on July 31, 2024. MSPs are now in the unenviable position of finding a replacement. According to the [Arcserve memo released by CRN](https://www.crn.com/news/storage/2024/arcserve-makes-sudden-cloud-services-exit-leaves-msps-scrambling), Arcserve based its decision to end-of-life both products after reviewing its “operations and state of the market.” And, according to Arcserve, they do not currently have a recommendation for MSPs on a vendor replacement, but they are working on developing that guidance. The abrupt end-of-life announcement leaves Arcserve MSPs in the dark about how to move forward. MSPs need to not only evaluate new vendors, but also migrate clients by the end-of-life time frame. This is no simple task for busy MSPs with a portfolio of clients on Arcserve. **Fast and easy migration to Acronis Cyber Platform (formerly Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud)** If you’re an Arcserve partner looking for a replacement, [Acronis Cyber Platform (formerly Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud)](https://www.acronis.com/en-us/products/cloud/cyber-protect/) offers a comprehensive suite of services for MSPs, including backup and DR enriched by advanced cyber protection with EDR.
