However, unlike most other software, these upgrades can be difficult to manage. Though some of the changes can be somewhat imperceptible, such hot fixes to existing programming issues or solutions to other technical problems that may not necessarily be noticeable to end users, a large portion of what you’re getting in a newer version are things that will impact your employees on a daily basis. ## 1.
