Progressive updates
These products are continuously updated with both feature and quality updates as they become available.
Bundled updates
To ensure the stability of complex configurations in your environment, several products are packaged, tested, and released together. There are two types of bundles: feature and quality.
Feature bundles
Feature bundles are released approximately every 6 months.
When a feature update is scheduled for your sandbox environment, your Vista representative will notify you directly, providing as much advance notice as practical. We support a maximum 6-week cycle of testing in the sandbox before your live environment will be upgraded.
Quality bundles
Quality bundles are packaged every 2 weeks but only applied to your tenants when the update provides a clear benefit, such as a security patch or a fix for an issue you're experiencing.
These updates are installed in both customer sandbox and production environments as soon as they become available.
Quality bundle updates are mandatory and you can't opt out of them, as they are necessary to ensure the security and performance of the platform. We will commonly apply 2-3 quality updates to your tenant between feature bundle updates.
