During a project, the team discovers that a critical software component will no longer receive updates, patches, or technical support from its vendor. Which term best describes the status of this software?
Beta software
Open-source software
End-of-life software
Legacy software
Software that is no longer supported, updated, or maintained by its vendor is referred to as end-of-life software. Continuing to use such software can pose significant risks, including security vulnerabilities and compatibility issues, and should be addressed promptly in project management. Legacy software refers to older software still in use, which may be outdated but is not necessarily unsupported. Beta software is pre-release software still under testing and development. Open-source software is software whose source code is available for modification or enhancement by anyone, and does not imply a lack of vendor support.
