Good luck, you won't be disappointed The two biggest improvements for me after migrating....first, no outages, whether internet connection related or platform outage related. Second, the response speed is incredible. No more issues being halfway down the hallway (or even all the way through) before lights turn on, etc. I never would have dreamed in ST about being able to issue 10 consecutive commands with 1 second delay between each and have them execute with any degree of accuracy.
Being able to pick and choose which updates are applied and when has been awesome too...no more forced upgrades and associated down time. I read the update and bug fix lists with each update that comes out. If nothing applies to me, I don't update. If something does apply, I pick a time when everything it quiet at home to perform the update so it doesn't mess with anything. Having restorable backups is a nice feeling too in case something doesn't go well for whatever reason. Every thread I read about platform updates over on that other forum reinforces that I made the right decision to switch.
