Important Note for Synergy JOIN and Synergy CONTROL Users:

End of Support for Windows based JOIN 5.x (and earlier) applications

As previously reported, on January 31st, 2022, Synergy SKY has officially ended support for Microsoft Windows based Synergy JOIN and Synergy CONTROL applications. Current licensed users can migrate to the Synergy SKY CONNECT to continue to enjoy the supported benefits of JOIN, CONTROL and ANALYZE in one platform.  Users will be able to continue using Synergy JOIN and CONTROL, but some workflows may not work or have limited functionality for users running on these unsupported versions. For the best experience, we recommend upgrading to the latest Synergy SKY Connect.
