The end of the year is usually about wrapping things up. This quarter, we're also starting something new: the Sesame Software 7.0 series. It brings a new interface, a redesigned integration engine, and a cloud-ready platform, and we wanted you to hear about it here first.
Inside: a first look at 7.0, words from the team that built it, what to expect when you upgrade, a year-end data checklist, and our latest G2 recognition. Thanks for another year as part of the Sesame Software community.
— The Sesame Software Team
01 — The 7.0 Series
For 30+ years, our focus has been giving enterprises complete control over their data. The 7.0 series is a full rewrite, built from the ground up for clarity and control: a modern interface that gets out of your way, a redesigned engine that moves data faster and more accurately, and a cloud-ready foundation built to scale.

02 — From the Team
7.0 is faster to use and faster under the hood. The new interface cuts down on clicks and waiting, and the redesigned engine makes replication and ETL more reliable than ever.
Nathan Lugert
Senior Software Engineer
"Sesame 7 Series is a full rewrite, built from the ground up for clarity and control. Deployment is more streamlined, the underlying technology is modern and up to date, and configuration now lives in organized database tables instead of scattered files, giving you a configuration trail you can actually audit. It's the same Sesame you rely on, rebuilt to be simpler to run and easier to trust."
Joshua Demumbreum
Director of Product Operations
"Sesame Data Platform 7.0 is the version I've always wanted to put in front of customers — from replication to pipelines and improved ETL, teams can get clean, reliable data wherever they need it, fast. In a world where AI is only as good as the data behind it, that's exactly what modern companies need, and I can't wait to see what our customers build on it."
Alvaro Mengual
Chief Operating Officer
03 — What to Expect
A big release can make people nervous, so here it is plainly: what's changing, what isn't, and answers to the questions we hear most.
7.0 will be available to all current customers this late fall, with one exception: support for NetSuite customers is projected for Q2 2027. If you use Sesame Software with NetSuite, your current version stays fully supported in the meantime, and we'll reach out as your upgrade gets closer.
The same way you've installed every previous release. When 7.0 is available, you'll download and install the new version. The upgrade process works just like past updates.
Yes. When you upgrade to 7.0, your existing jobs and configurations come with you. NetSuite customers will upgrade in Q2 2027, and we'll share details on that transition as it gets closer.
When we say Sesame Software is "cloud-ready," it means the platform delivers the full performance and scalability of cloud data integration without forcing you to surrender data privacy or lock yourself into vendor-hosted cloud storage.
No. The new interface is built to make the tasks you already know faster, with fewer clicks and less waiting.
Yes. 7.0 is available for both on-premise and cloud deployments.
No. There are no changes to your current agreement.
Yes. Book a time with our team and we'll walk you through 7.0 using your setup.

| Salesforce | Any | 6.3.0.20260115.2 | 6.3.0.20260227.7 | Fixed an issue where concurrent logins set to 1 caused the code to bypass the -getAllGlobal check and perform a -get for each object instead. |
