The Esri Support team has launched the new Support website! This is an exciting change that enhances the capabilities of the previous  support.esri.com website, improves the organization of Support content, and modernizes the way in which you interact with Esri Support.

In the upcoming weeks, we will be fine-tuning the search results, product content, and downloads on the new Support website. During this time, the old Support website will continue to provide access to both assisted and self-support resources, so you can still contact Support if need be.

While we have done our best to provide the best online support experience possible on the new website, we realize that questions and issues may arise over the new few weeks. We are actively working to address your concerns and fix any problems. A summary of known issues is listed below, and we will be updating this as we move forward.
