Sage 500 discontinued

We are currently using Sage 100 and want to move away from a proprietary database.  We were looking into Sage 500.  In all my researching someone just mentioned to me that Sage 500 has been classified as  a ‘sunset’ product meaning… while companies can still buy it, Sage will not continue developing it. 

Anyone have more info on this?  We are happy with Sage 100 except for the Providex database and low emphasis on manufacturing.

Thanks

    If Sage is going to support 500 ERP for the next 6 years, why are the spending so little time and effort on the product line?

    Sage 500 ERP includes advanced features in core financials, distribution, manufacturing and project accounting.  At this point, it is a stable and yet flexible foundation for customers who need those capabilities.  Sage continues to invest in customers using the solution to the extent that ongoing enhancements are designed to improve the customer experience -- making the solution more user friendly in everyday use, staying current with operating system and hardware standards, and adding new ways to make business intelligence easier to access and analyze.

    To be clear, there is no determined or announced retirement date for this product
