Discover the reasons to keep our editorial management software always update

In media groups and companies, keeping editorial management software up to date ensures access to the latest improvements in security, usability and functionality. Often presented with the opportunity to upgrade our technology, we are reluctant to do so, either because of the convenience of staying as we are or because of the hassle of waiting for an upgrade and the fear that it will affect the tasks we are used to performing.

A study on technology updates, conducted by cybersecurity company Kaspersky, confirms that more than 50% of users delay updates to their operating system so as not to disrupt their workflow.

So what are the benefits of keeping my software up to date?

Technology, by its very nature, is constantly evolving and always improving the services it offers. The latest versions of each solution incorporate lessons learned from previous versions in terms of security, usability and functionality.  If not, we should consider upgrading our software by evaluating other solutions available on the market.

So if you are wondering when is the best time to upgrade your software, the answer is always NOW. Keeping your technology updated to its latest version guarantees you access to all the benefits of your tool.

Moreover, it is important to keep in mind that if your updates are more or less regular, upgrading will be quick and easy.

– Reinforced security:

One of the main missions of updates is to improve security aspects and ensure protection against attacks or system failures. In addition, older versions of applications are the easiest entry point for cybercriminals.

– Friendlier interfaces and better user experience:

Design techniques to improve the user experience have advanced tremendously in recent years, resulting in friendlier product interfaces and simplified and much more efficient work processes.

– Increased performance: 

At the same time as applications become more and more powerful in functionality, they become lighter on machines. Reaction times are reduced while power is increased and resources consumed are reduced, thus increasing productivity.
