[cisco-voip] Would you upgrade from 4.2.3 to 5.xx?

[Voll, Scott]

>From all the stuff I've seen you can only upgrade to 5.1 from 4.1.  if
your running 4.2 or 4.3 you will need to wait for 6.x.

 

I also believe Lelio is right on the SCCP.  SIP only has about 16
features so you loose functionality with SIP.

I think many people are staying with SCCP when going to 5.x.x.

 

The issue you have here is that you can not upgrade from 4.2 to 5.x, you
can only upgrade to 6.x from 4.2. Right Scott? ;)

	A little background:  We installed 4.2.3 about 8 months ago as
part of a pilot program and have a several sites for a total of about
80-90 phones.  We will be adding our main site with approximately 400
users within the next 12 months.  We have one Call Manager Cluster that
is sized for all of this along with a Unity server.
	
	Should we upgrade to the latest 5.X version and consider using
SIP?  Is the upgrade a painful process and is there any long term
benefit?  I am a little concerned about staying on the Windows platform
and the proprietary SCCP protocol.  At the same time, I'm concerned
about the reliability of 5.X and the learning curve.
	
	Any insight would be appreciated.
	
	Thanks!
