SP 2019 on- premises - modern experience
Hi,
Can anyone help me with the following? I have been trying to contact Microsoft directly, but they keep redirecting to different departments. Our customers are asking these questions all the time...
• Is Microsoft going to deprecated the classic experience at any point in the future?
• Is it possible to use classic team sites in SharePoint 2019?
• Are farm solutions still supported in SharePoint 2019?
• Why customers should migrate to SharePoint 2019 and not SharePoint 2016?
Thanks for your help.
Bestregards,
Leire

• Is Microsoft going to deprecated the classic experience at any point in the future?
So far the message is that the classic experience is not going to be deprecated any time soon
• Is it possible to use classic team sites in SharePoint 2019?
Yes
• Are farm solutions still supported in SharePoint 2019?
Yes
• Why customers should migrate to SharePoint 2019 and not SharePoint 2016?
Mainly because you can create modern sites there, you have also modern document libraries and lists, SPFx Develelopment is fully supported, the new Sync Client for OneDrive is also supported, ...

Chris McNultyhas written many articles about how Microsoft is approaching all of the previously deployed technologies. I agree with jcgonzalezmartin answers.
2019 puts a company in a better position for future enhancements and hybrid scenarios. It has almost everything from 2016 and a lot of stuff from SPOnline, see https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/what-s-new/what-s-deprecated-or-removed-from-sharepoint-server-2019
