You can move any time. EBSCO FAQ states: EBSCO will be strongly encouraging all EBSCOhost customers to adopt the New UI in the January 2025 timeframe. Customers will have the opportunity to opt out of that timeframe if needed. EBSCO’s goal is to have all customers onto our New UI by August 2025.
Follow up June 13, 2024:
If you are unable to migrate to the EBSCO new UI by this Summer or January 2025, reach out to your EBSCO representative to discuss your options.
For example, after emailing with our rep, SJSU has been added to an "opt out" list thus allowing us to migrate in May 2025. Apparently, you must get on the "opt out" list to avoid being required to move in January 2025.
All customers must be migrated by August 5, 2025.
Again, please reach out to your EBSCO account executive to discuss your concerns and migration date.

Requesting access to EBSCO Experience Manager is the first step which provides access to the EBSCO Configuration module. Once you gain access, please review the EBSCO Configuration User Guide . EEM is mostly for customizing the new UI but at some point down the road, it will replace EBSCO Admin portal.
