Is anyone running v10? We are about to update from v9.0.2.xx and I am looking for any pros / cons / caveats etc...
Thanks in advance  8)

Sorry...out of the game or I would have been running it.

Yep, I thought of you first Joe, but I also knew the cold hard facts.  :'(

Don't go! You escaped once, but now that they've seen how bad your replacement is they'll chain you to the desk!

My replacement didn't last for 3 months after I left.

Watch the server upgrade, if needed.

We are on 9.5 here, both Prinergy and InSite. We want to upgrade to 10 for both but PressProof will require OS upgrades on all 7 stations. We are thinking about seeing what the pros and cons would be putting it all in the cloud.

The last 2 upgrades required OS upgrades on the servers and they were painful trying to migrate all over from the old to the new.

I know our Mac OS is compatible, in fact we will be able to go up a few.
No one mentioned the Prinergy servers versions which we've had to do that before and I hope not again. Better check I think.

I think you need Windows Server 2016 or 2019.

Our IT department is concerned because End of Life for 2019 is October of 2025 and goes into Extended Support.

Just reached out to server team dude, I know we had to do this before but I can't remember if we went to 2019? I'm pretty sure we are >= 2016 because of that time...

Can you just not go to the Prinergy server to see what it is running?

Yeah, remotely, they're virtualized now. We used to control all of that when it was the orig. Dell hardware but no more.

I chose to reach out to server team leader as a clever ploy to get our install date on his schedule TBH.
