"As time elapses, it becomes more complicated because there are more dependencies--meaning you have more things to upgrade and you find out more software that needs upgrading. The shops that go off our board (upgrade completed) in a month keep their software current and are under maintenance. When the upgrades of other software are simpler, it makes the entire upgrade simpler. Instead of finding 15 pieces of software that needs upgrades, there are only two or three."
