| Forum Junkie ![]() | When do you install or upgrade software on your main board in a LIVE environment? That is what release status... I often use or upgrade to public betas

| The Webmaster ![]() | In the past I have only used the full or gold releases but in the future I would be comfortable upgrading to a Release Candidate or perhaps a beta.

![]() ![]() | I varies for me. Some of the larger boards I run only go for upgrades after a few weeks of gold being out. Some less vital ones like my personal boards I usually upgrade to beta/RC If I get the time |

| Forum Enthusiast ![]() ![]() ![]() | It depends on how badly I need a new feature being offered. I run Beta versions of VBSEO a lot because I test them. I wouldn't mind running a beta of vBulletin. I'd do the upgrade on one of my smaller sites first though. A lot of it depends on how much a trust the software developers.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | I'll typically only upgrade to gold releases, but as Bama said, if I need the new features bad enough and am confident in the release, I'll upgrade to RC in a live environment (have done this before at AF) In order to go live with an RC release, I do plenty of testing first

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | In live environment I only use software which has reached gold release, because I feel that in a live environment stability is more important than features.

![]() | Public betas change too fast to be safe, I generally wait on release candidates for everything.

| Member | I run only full releases (Gold) on a LIVE production environment. Can't take a risk. Though, I test betas and RCs on my localhost.
