New Terminology for Sumo Logic Previews
We're simplifying the terminology we use to describe features in development and validation stages. Starting today, we're replacing Beta with Customer Preview to help you better understand the state of new features and how they fit into your environment.
What's changing
| Previous Term | New Term | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Closed Beta | Private Preview | Invite only. |
| Open Beta | Extended Preview | Selected customers. |
| (New) | Public Preview | All eligible customers. |
| GA | General Availability | No change. Fully supported for all customers. |
Work with your account team to learn more about available Previews and to sign up for early access.
Why this matters
The new Preview terminology provides:
- Clearer participation criteria. Understand who can access each tier.
- Better maturity signals. Know what level of production-readiness to expect.
- Consistent naming. The same terminology across all Sumo Logic products and features.
During the transition period, you may see both Beta and Preview labels active at the same time. All documentation, badges, and release notes will adopt the new terminology going forward. Learn more.
