### Make the dates work before you move.

Pick your emulator and renewal month. See when to inventory licenses, test the move and roll out in waves.

The WND Terminal renewal planner works backward from your renewal month and assumed notice period. It schedules a readiness report, a four-week proof of value, side-by-side rollout waves and a license-use inventory. These are planning dates to confirm with your IT and procurement teams.


### Work back from your renewal.

Change an assumption and the dates update here. Nothing is sent until you complete a contact request.



The dated planner needs JavaScript. [Tell us your emulator and renewal month](https://wndsoftware.com/proof-of-value) and we’ll work through a plan with you.

### Questions


#### Does this change our current license agreement?

No. The planner has no connection to your vendor or contract. Procurement must confirm notice requirements, exact dates and the conditions for retiring the old deployment.


#### What if a planning date has already passed?

The planner highlights past dates without moving them. Start a readiness review and agree a feasible schedule; it does not promise that a rushed cutover will work.


#### Do I need to give you an email to see the dates?

No. The estimate runs in your browser. Send me this plan opens a proof-of-value request with your plan filled in; you decide whether to submit it.
