Over the years, we’ve released five major versions of the platform — each designed to enhance system integration, increase resilience, and streamline operations.
But as technology continues to advance, older systems can quickly fall behind. That’s why we’re encouraging all users to assess their current version of Datalog — and consider upgrading to the latest innovations.
Our latest and most advanced release, Datalog QL, is the sixth-generation evolution of our software and sets new standards in high-security, safety, and building efficiency.
Designed with critical infrastructure in mind, Datalog QL offers a modern, web-based platform with real-time control, intuitive dashboards, enhanced cyber resilience, and seamless integration with third-party systems.
It’s built to simplify complex environments, empower operators with live data, and future-proof your site against the challenges ahead. Learn more about QL here.
If you’re still running Datalog 5.2 or earlier, you could be missing out on valuable new features, performance improvements, and vital security updates. Each new release — major or minor — is developed to:
* Resolve known issues
* Maintain compatibility with the latest operating systems
* Introduce performance enhancements and speed improvements
* Add new integrations and features to meet evolving site needs
While Datalog 5.2 introduced powerful integration capabilities and improved situational awareness, Datalog QL takes this to an entirely new level — delivering greater flexibility, scalability, and intelligence for your estate.
Running an outdated version of Datalog — or any software — increases your vulnerability to:
* Cyber threats due to lack of security patches
* System instability and operational downtime
* Compatibility issues with new hardware and third-party technologies
* Missed opportunities for automation, insight, and smarter workflows
The longer outdated systems are in use, the more difficult and costly they become to maintain — and the greater the risk to your site’s security and operational continuity.
Upgrading to the latest version of Datalog, especially Datalog QL, is an investment in your site’s long-term performance.
Alongside improved cyber resilience and system stability, QL introduces new features designed to simplify operations, enhance reporting, and increase return on investment by reducing system failures and manual intervention.
In many cases, the cost of maintaining legacy systems far outweighs the investment required to upgrade.
If you suspect you’re still running an outdated version of Datalog — or you’re unsure which version your site is using — we’re here to help. Contact your Account Manager today or email us at sales@cortech.co.uk
