Should I upgrade to BES 5.0?

[jameskemp]

Currently using BES 4.1.5.28 (with the database upgraded to 5.0 in readiness) and using the new administration web tools.

Question is, do I take the plunge and upgrade to 5.0 now or hang on? I have BES support with RIM so I've downloaded the software already and it won't cost me anything so this really is purely a technical decision.

Does anyone have any reasons not to upgrade?

umm ... so you upgraded the database but you're still debating on doing the upgrade?

The question really shouldn't be "any reasons not to upgrade" ... but rather "any reason TO upgrade" ... other than IT IS THE NEWEST I MUST HAVE THE NEWEST IT IS THE BESTEST AND I MUST HAVE THAT NOW YES YES YES.

So ... you've already upgraded the database, might as well go through with it and hate the new management interface like everyone else.

you can upgrade the database before actually upgrading to/installing 5.0?
