What will happen to KTS customers when 21.5 hits?

[drogon]

I currently have a subscription for KTS. I am using 21.3.10.391g.

I understand that some existing Kaspersky packages will be replaced with basic/standard/plus. I also understand that everything hasn’t been finalised and that KTS will definitely be phased out. 

What version (basic/standard/plus/premium) will KTS customers be offered? Can I upgrade to 21.5.11.384 right now?

@drogon Welcome.

The corresponding versions are as follows :

• KAV → Kaspersky “Basic”
• KIS  → Kaspersky “Standard”
• KTS →  Kaspersky “Plus” ?
• KSC → Kaspersky “Premium” ?

ETA details about a general release are currently not available.

i think you  can download kaspersky plus and install it, then try to active it by using your kaspersky account. i also want to know if it works.

Also, if you have a valid Key you can proceed with an on top install.

Do you mean that the KTS key cant active Kaspersky plus now? We should wait for release?

@drogon

A  commercial release of Kaspersky Plus will accept a KTS key.

@drogon

A  commercial release of Kaspersky Plus will accept a KTS key.

 

i already can buy and download kaspersky basic/standard/plus/premium on USA’s website

like this

Kaspersky Plus - Advanced Cybersecurity Protection | Kaspersky

Kaspersky Plus | Kaspersky

i think it’s already a commercial release?

@drogon All downloads on Kaspersky USA are commercial releases.

Thank you very much @Danila T.  !!! but now I have another question, reading this sentence: “KTS does not have a directly compatible new app. But KTS customers will be allowed to renew with and upgrade to Kaspersky Plus.“ → Will be free that upgrade/migration from KTS to K.Plus?????? Probably not… 🤔

[Danila T.]

Will be free that upgrade/migration from KTS to K.Plus??????

Hi!

No.

Hi

@Danila T. 

And about KTS migration, for example user now renew or buy KTS for 2 years, and when new versions will arrive (this year) then he have to pay again if He wants to install the new versions, I think this is not a good decision.

Hi @Danila T., 

1. When does support for KTS end please? 

• (ioo), Kaspersky getting rid of the best product → KTS; they’ve ever marketed, is sheer lunacy. 

Thank you🙏

@Caosand @Flood and Flood's wife 

KTS will still be supported (including patches) (we will inform you about the EOL in due course). But if the user needs new functionality, they can upgrade by renewing their licence.

Please note:

Q4. Is Safe Kids included in Kaspersky Plus?

No, but those who renew or upgrade from KTS to Plus, will receive a separate email with code for Safe Kids for 1 year, but only for 1 year.

Hi @Danila T., 

Thank you for the information, however, it leads to more questions, atm, we have, a KTS license, with 311 days remaining, that includes KSK Premium, so are you saying, in a years time (approx), if we upgrade to Plus, we will also receive a Safe Kids subscription for 1 year? 

Thank you🙏

Hi @Danila T. 

Thank you for above details.
Could we please also obtain some details about  Kaspersky “Premium”.
What about Kaspersky Security Cloud for iOS  ?

Best regards

Yes, as the K. Plus does not activate the KSK premium. If you renew your licence from KTS to K.Plus, you will receive a separate licence for KSK for 1 year. But after it expires, if you want to use the premium version of KSK, you will need to buy a KSK licence.

Friends, I suggest that only aspects of migration from KTS be discussed in this thread. I suggest discussing questions about the new Kaspersky in: https://community.kaspersky.com/kaspersky-basic-standard-plus-premium-159
