You are an existing customer?
Our product names are changing, but our commitment to you isn’t.
What stays the same?
All the essentials you rely on remain unchanged:
• Your current pricing and commercial terms
• Contract durations and payment conditions
• All operational processes and service levels
• Every other part of your existing agreement
What changes from mid of April?
Starting in April 15, 2026, you’ll see our new product names on your invoices and documents.
This is purely a naming update, nothing about how your services work will change.
We’re here to support you.
