cPanel ELS - Which plugins partners are onboard?
Hy!
What major players of the cPanel ecosystem have agreed to join new cPanel ELS schedule? I am particularly concerned about JetBackup, Imunify360 and CSF/LFD as I haven't heard whether or not they are committed to extend support for CentOS/CloudLinux 7 until 2026.
I believe this is a critical piece of information for anyone seeking to make an educated decision going forward.
Thank you.

I opened a ticket with JetBackup. It's not part of the EOL support.

In here:
https://configserver.com/configserver-security-and-firewall/
it says:
Note: Any OS that is EOL will not be supported and newer versions of csf may no longer work as new functionality is added0 -
Thank you both for digging further into this.
I reached out to Softaculous yesterday but I haven't heard back from them yet.
I also contacted CloudLinux regarding Imunify360, apparently they have nothing to share on this matter at the moment.
They did clarify, however, that CloudLinux 7 support won't extend until Jan/26 like cPanel v110, instead CloudLinux 7 is expected to stop getting security patches six months earlier (Jun/25, 12 months from now) as stated here:
https://blog.cloudlinux.com/update-on-cloudlinux-os-7-eol
So, things are not looking very promising for cPanel ELS at the moment, they are pretty much on their own from the looks of it. Not suitable for boxes running anything other than bare cPanel v110 apparently.

The cPanel blog post: https://cpanel.net/blog/announcements/extended-lifecycle-support-oses-update/ says CentOS V7 and CloudLinux V7, but it does not help that much of the supporting tools etc. are not updated.

In case someone is wondering about Softaculous, they are in. Their support just replied:
"Yes we will support CentOS 7 as long as cPanel is supporting it."
