CA Licensing Maintenance
Maintenance is one of the easiest and most cost-effective components of every licensing order. It offers customers technical phone support and information on new products as they become available. Customers can purchase maintenance for a one, two or three-year (where available) term at the time that the product(s) are purchased.
Customers who have active maintenance or Upgrade Protection will be notified of product revisions when these become available via CA's website, email or by mail.
When a product upgrade becomes available, CA licensing customers may request their FREE upgrade - see below for the following steps that need to be completed.
