📘 Beta Program Policy – Early Access Program (EAP)
1. Overview
The Early Access Program (“Program”) provides selected customers with access to pre-release versions of the iConfig Hardware Inventory Discovery Agent (“App”) for evaluation, testing, and feedback.
The Program is designed to:
Validate product functionality and usability
Identify defects and performance issues
Test across different environments and configurations
Evaluate operational and cost models, including Forge-based consumption
Participation in the Program implies active collaboration with iDev.
2. Beta Status
The App is provided as a Beta (Early Access) product.
As such:
Features may be incomplete or subject to change
The App may contain bugs or performance limitations
Functionality may be modified, suspended, or discontinued at any time
No guarantee is provided regarding stability, availability, or feature completeness.
3. Use in Production and Testing Recommendations
Use of the App in production environments is permitted but not recommended for critical operations.
To reduce risk during the Program, participants are strongly encouraged to:
Use a sandbox or non-production environment
Test using a separate or newly created Assets schema, rather than existing production structures
Avoid using sensitive, regulated, or business-critical data
Participants acknowledge that use in production environments is at their own discretion and risk.
4. Support Model
Support during the Program is provided on a best-effort basis.
This may include:
Direct communication channels with the iDev team
Prioritized handling of critical issues when feasible
No formal Service Level Agreement (SLA) applies during the Beta period.
5. Feedback and Participation
Participants are expected to:
Provide feedback on functionality, usability, and performance
Report bugs and unexpected behavior
Participate in periodic check-ins if requested
Feedback provided may be used by iDev to improve the App without restriction.
6. Participation Tiers and Commercial Conditions
To recognize different levels of engagement, participants may be classified into Beta Participation Tiers (e.g., Explorer, Contributor, Founding Customer). https://idevsolucoes.atlassian.net/wiki/x/WQAtmw
Participation alone does not guarantee commercial benefits
Eligibility for preferential pricing or limited-time discounts is based on active and meaningful participation
Participation may be evaluated based on:
Consistency of usage
Use across real or representative environments
Quality and relevance of feedback provided
iDev reserves the right to assess participation in a reasonable and good-faith manner.
⚠️ The number of participants classified as Founding Customers is limited.
Following General Availability (GA):
Eligible participants may receive preferential pricing or early customer benefits
Pricing models may be adjusted based on insights gathered during the Program
7. Changes and Termination
iDev may modify, suspend, or terminate the Program at any time.
Where reasonably possible, iDev will provide prior notice (generally up to 90 days) for:
Significant changes affecting usage
Program termination
8. Transition to General Availability
At the end of the Program:
The App may transition to a fully supported and potentially paid offering
Participants will be informed of next steps and available options
9. Disclaimer
The Beta App is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, express or implied.
