Built In Upgrade vs. Fresh Install

So I’ve been updating a couple of store and would like to know your opinion about the upgrading procedure.



There are a couple of different ways to go about upgrading.



There is the built in upgrade or you can manually upgrade to a fresh version.



I’d like to know how you guys do it. I’ve done both depending on the site and the version that the site is coming from compared to where it is going.



If you could please answer the poll and then explain why I’d really appreciate it.



Thank you,



Brandon

Fresh install is always the best way top go even if it creates 10x’s the work there will be 10x’s less errors - Sno

Fresh Installs are for noobs - You can’t recreate product option variants
