To be clear though, in the long run though you’ll want everyone in the organisation on the same version and we always recommend staying up with the current version for robustness, security and to ensure you have the latest capabilities available.
(And in which case, let us and FileMaker know - use "Feedback" under the Help menu.) In fact, it’s also possible to keep both FM17 and 18 on your device or computer, so you can try 18 and still fall back to 17 if there is anything misbehaving. You can mix and match too - you don’t have to update for FileMaker Server immediately, and nor is it necessary for everyone in your organisation to update their apps at once. In which case, let’s get on and upgrade you as soon as possible-just drop us a line asap. That said, if you’re suffering from bottlenecks on the server then the good news is that 18 brings some huge improvements to multitasking, which basically means the server can better handle lots of users and tasks at once. We’ll be progressively upgrading our own servers in coming days so that we too get some real world miles under our belts and can advise you. We’re a little more cautious on FileMaker Server, where we reckon on waiting at least a couple of weeks to see if any issues emerge: FileMaker Server has had some substantial changes in how it works and while these have been tested extensively for many months now, there’s nothing like the real-world to turn up issues in software. We think you’ll be fine to go ahead and update the FileMaker Pro Advanced app on your computers and iOS devices right away - the business world is getting used to updating software regularly and even automatically now which you see with most cloud software. but not necessarily immediately - here’s how we see it: On Desktop, iPad and iPhone *The Server update includes a new version of WebDirect too - better, faster, stronger. FileMaker Inc have released the major annual update to the entire FileMaker platform today bringing a bunch of under-the-hood improvements and a few quite valuable, though generally quite technical new features.
