<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">The BigFix WebUI is available in two configurations: WebUI with ETL (available in 9.2.6 and higher) and WebUI with database (available in 9.5.5 and higher). WebUI with ETL configuration is being deprecated and
will no longer be supported after our next major WebUI release targeted for Mid-November 2018. From that point forward, WebUI with database will be the only supported configuration. The database configuration provides the best WebUI experience including better
performance, scalability, and access to our newest features like Patch Policies and the Content App.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
