Is it safe to upgrade to v16 yet?

Question asked by W. T. Leaver - 4/12/2018 at 10:25 AM

Unanswered

So I’ve been holding off upgrading to SM16, and just thought I’d ask for opinions on whether it’s generally safe to do now. Are there any major features that users are going to miss? Is interface speed still a negative factor?

I’m on the enterprise version if it matters.

I know there are discussion about this but thought I’d ask for the general consensus as of today.

I held off thinking all was fine. Nope, it's not if you use EWS and it still feels like a 1.0 product. Using IMAP seems much better. My server had the process max'd out the other day, smartermail shut down the entire server networking, once the service was restarted all was fine again. Second time this has happened. Good luck and Godspeed should you choose to give it a try.

I did see your posts about problems with the latest build. On some there were others reporting not having the same issues with that same build, which made me wonder if your issues were widespread or a fluke. What version of Windows Server are you running?

Same here. If I end up getting brave and doing it I’ll let you know if I have any of the problems you mentioned.
