Well I took the plunge and upgraded our internal Sametime 3.1 server to Sametime 7.5 and it was almost a dissapointing experience. Not a single issue. Not one… It was super easy – click, click, click and the server was upgraded without any problems – all users retain their buddylists and some hasn’t even noticed the upgrade. Only a few users have had the new client installed but we will be rolling the client out soon as well.
Although it was a very pleasant experience I did notice two things:
- When running the UI in Danish the “Paste” command in the Edit-menu is incorrectly translated to “Klistre”. The Danish translation in other programs is “Sæt ind”.
- If attempting a file transfer of a file that exceeds the maximum filesize set in the policy, the filesizes are shown in bytes and not in megebytes as one would expect (see image below).
Apart from that – Happy Sametime Friday!! 🙂
