Whether you are considering upgrading now or in the future, remember there is always the option to skip or schedule the current update. Though, Ledgeview’s top recommendation is to keep your system modernized so you don’t fall behind once you have to upgrade later.
If you skipped the last upgrade, for example, it may be time to consider moving on to V9.
When you are ready for the V9 Update, be sure to run an Upgrade Diagnostic. Without this analysis, upgrading can be an absolute nightmare for Users and Admins. Items can break without a diagnostic.
An Upgrade Diagnostic will show you all the warning signs to prevent complications with your system with future upgrades.
