Our 7.6.04 upgrade was relatively painful and took a large amount of time and effort. So we got lazy and didn't want to do it again any time soon. Now we are getting a new environment to work out of so we decided it was time to go through the exercise again. The users weren't clamoring for anything new. But once they saw that 9.0 had the same interface (no, we won't be going to SmartIT/MyIT any time soon) they gave their blessings.
Now we see just what a lot of work it is tying in all the stuff that has changed and have decided that once this one is complete we will be immediately working on the next one. Make it more of a scheduled thing (yearly? Twice yearly?) just so it is not such a large bite each time.
