Bamboo Solutions Partners with Pentalogic to Offer a Transition for Reminder 365 Customers




By Matt DiPasquale, Bamboo Solutions

Microsoft’s retirement of the SharePoint Add-In model in April 2026 means that Reminder 365, a trusted solution for SharePoint alerts, will no longer function. If you’ve relied on Reminder 365 to keep your team informed, you may be asking:


“What’s the best alternative to Reminder 365?”

“How do I transition Reminder 365 alerts to a modern solution?”

The answer is here: Bamboo Alert Plus.


A New Partnership for a Seamless Transition

We’re excited to announce our partnership with Pentalogic Technology, the creators of Reminder 365, to ensure a smooth transition for their customers. Together, we’ve created a clear path so you can transition to a supported, modern solution without losing functionality—or peace of mind.

Reminder 365 will be retired on April 2, 2026, but there’s no need to wait. Bamboo Solutions is ready to help you move to Alert Plus, our powerful alerting tool built on Microsoft’s best practices.



Microsoft Retiring SharePoint Alerts – What’s Next for Your Organization?




By Rob Manfredi, President, Bamboo Solutions

Microsoft has announced that classic SharePoint Alerts are being retired, leaving many organizations searching for a reliable SharePoint Alerts replacement. For years, users depended on Alerts in SharePoint Online and SharePoint Server to get notified when documents were updated, tasks were assigned, or list items changed. With this retirement, IT teams and business users alike are asking:


  • How will we stay updated without SharePoint Alerts? 
  • What are the best alternatives to SharePoint Alerts? 


The good news is that you don’t have to lose this functionality. Instead, you can upgrade to something far more powerful: Bamboo Alert Plus.


Why You Need a Replacement for SharePoint Alerts

Standard SharePoint Alerts have always been limited: no advanced scheduling, no message customization, and no filtering beyond basic list or library changes. For organizations that rely on Alerts for collaboration, compliance, or workflow updates, the retirement can cause major disruptions.


That’s why it’s time to move to Bamboo Alert Plus – the enterprise-grade alternative to Microsoft SharePoint Alerts.
