imho While you may be able to get a piece of software to work with other flavors of Linux than the ones they support, you will be effectively giving up the support that company has to offer you. Companies do this for the very reason of not staffing people to support every flavor out there. Most companies worth a darn will at least try and help you, but they are not obligated to. Also I have had mixed results when trying to run software on Fedora, or CentOS that says it is supported on RedHat.
