# Upgrading from 6.3 to 7

Due to some issues we're having, IBM is pushing us to upgrade our current release to a later version of 6.3 than we're currently running. We're weighing the effort required and considering making the jump directly to 7, since we'll most likely be doing that eventually anyway.

Is anybody currently using version 7 who can provide feedback on whether it has been stable, or other general feedback about their experience with 7?

What endpoints are you using (HTTP, SAP, JDE, Email, etc.)?  That might be the biggest indicator.

We use JDE Adapters, and those did go through a big change, so we had to re-create the endpoints in the projects.

Chrome/IE/etc. are deprecating support for Flash (which the App Connect gui uses) at the end of 2020, so you're going to want to update to whatever version of App Connect IBM address that (it's going to be a 7.5.3 or later version).

Anecdotally, I've seen a lot less high memory/cpu etc. issues in the more recent (7.5.2 / .3) releases vs. earlier versions.  

If you're going through a big migration/upgrade anyway, I'd just bite the bullet and upgrade to the newest version that addresses the flash issue.

### Comment 2

We are using 7.5.3 and very recently we encountered couple of issues in our Salesforce select statements.

We are using Fix 3 of 7.5.3 for the past 4 months. No issues till now.

I would recommend downloading the corresponding studio fix and open and test the project before upgrading.
