Retirement

Reminder 365 Retirement Notice

We regret to inform you that Reminder 365 will be retired and no longer be available for use from April 2, 2026.

This decision is necessary due to Microsoft’s retirement of the SharePoint Add-In extensibility model, which forms the foundation of our product.

It DOES NOT effect the on-premises version of Reminder – only Reminder 365 for SharePoint Online.

We list some recommendations for how you can move your Alerts to a new platform for long term compatibility below.

Why This Is Happening?

Microsoft has announced the retirement of SharePoint Add-Ins across all Microsoft 365 / SharePoint Online environments, including Government Clouds and Department of Defense.

SharePoint Add-Ins will stop working as of April 2nd, 2026.

Microsoft has confirmed there will be no option to extend SharePoint Add-Ins beyond this date and has recommended a migration to the newer SPFx integration model.

Whilst it is possible to move to the newer SPFx model, migrating Reminder 365 would involve a complete architectural redesign and redevelopment and this isn’t economically feasible.

We understand this change will cause inconvenience, and we sincerely apologize for any disruption to your workflows. We remain committed to supporting you through this transition period and will continue to provide technical support for Reminder 365 until its retirement date.

What are my Alternatives?

You may be tempted to implement similar functionality using Microsoft Power Automate and you will find instructions on how to do this online – but we do not recommend this for most users.

Power Automate is more complex to setup and run than 3rd party alerting tools and can quickly become expensive if iterating lists frequently – it is more suitable for workflow automation for complex multi step tasks.

We recommend moving to Bamboo’s Alert Plus which provides most of the same features as Reminder 365 (and many useful additional ones) and is built upon the current SharePoint Online SPFx model for long term compatibility.

We have partnered with Bamboo Solutions to offer special pricing and can offer individual guidance on how you can move your Reminder 365 alerts to Bamboo Alert Plus.

Thank you for your understanding and for being a valued customer.
