JACE Upgrade Promotion
Upgrade Promotion: Move from JACE 8000 to the Next-Generation JACE 9000
Smart buildings call for smart upgrades. This program offers a streamlined path to future-ready automation, minimizing cost and complexity while keeping your systems efficient, secure, and adaptable. Buildings perform best when their technology evolves alongside innovation.
Your intelligent building with a Honeywell building management system may use a Honeywell WEB 8000 JACE controller. These “JACE 8000” controllers run the HVAC and mechanical controls in your smart building.
A limited-time upgrade program is now available to help organizations using JACE® 8000 controllers transition smoothly to the next generation with JACE® 9000.
The JACE® 9000 is built for tomorrow’s controls system. And it is ready for Niagara 5, the hotly anticipated 2026 operating system release by Tridium.
This upgrade path preserves the value of your current Niagara investment and positions your building systems for future expansion and innovation. By using your active Software Maintenance Agreement (SMA), you can carry your Niagara license forward to the JACE 9000—no need to repurchase or rebuild.
What Makes JACE 9000 Different?
More Power, Greater Capacity – Built to manage today’s most demanding, data-rich automation environments.
Stronger Security by Design – Meets current cybersecurity expectations to help protect critical systems.
Ready for What’s Next – Designed for Niagara 5, anticipated in Summer 2026. (JACE 8000 hardware is not compatible with Niagara 5.)
Smooth Transition – Preserve your existing licenses and configurations while upgrading with minimal impact.
Available through June 27, 2026, this promotion enables eligible users to transfer their existing Niagara Framework® license from a JACE 8000 to a JACE 9000 by paying only a license transfer fee—eliminating the need to purchase a full new license.
We’re here to support you every step of the way—from evaluating your options to confirming eligibility and ensuring a smooth upgrade.
Reach out to your Genesis contact today to discuss the upgrade process and make the most of this limited-time program.
