We have experienced tremendous issues with Centricity version 12.0.6, it has been recommended to us by our VAR and GE to upgrade to 12.0.7 or 12.0.8. Our question is, how many issues are in those versions? We do not want to make it more difficult than it already is on our Providers. Has anyone upgrade to either of these versions? What bugs or crashes are you experiencing?
We were on 12.0.6 but we were required to upgrade to 12.0.7 for PQRS. I'm not aware of 12.0.8 being GA yet but I can tell you 12.0.7 did absolutely nothing for our 12.0.5 or 12.0.6 issues.
We are on CPS 12 SP5 still and the problems that we are encountering have no fixes on the Horizon. I have reviewed the release notes for Service Pack 6 and 7 but I do not see much of anything in regards to Performance improvement that would make me jump and upgrade.
The biggest issues we are facing is:
- CPOE A&P template running slow
- Orders processing is extremely slow
- Rx Refills intermittently is slow
- Chart Summary Loading is slow

We went to 12.0.7 also for PQRS and I have to say that it did nothing for us. This software is extremely "fragile" and it seems like they fix something and break something else. We were on CEMR since 1999 and it was never as bad as what CPS is now (converted from CEMR 9.5 to CPS 11 in Feb 2014).
Minimal issues 12.07.
Minimal issues for us as well 12.0.7 compared to CPS 12.0.6!
We have a ton of issues that have been following us since we upgraded from 11 to 12. 12.0.8 will be in GA in a week or so and there are suppose to be a lot of fixes in this release. I would say 12.0.7 was geared towards PQRS and not really fixing any issues. If I were you I would wait for 12.0.8, skip 12.0.7.
From GE's State of the Union today, SP 8 should be available in late April. On its third cycle of Limited Availability. Has been pushed back because they are including all these PQRS fixes they have had to do the last few weeks.
We are on 12.0.6 and waiting for SP8. SP7 appears not to fix much of anything that you can't get as a side patch (script or dll, etc) from GE. I'm not confident that SP8 is going to resolve many of our issues either. I'm hopeful that 12.2 will be a stable release.
We are still on 12.0.4 because it seems that not a whole lot has been fixed in later releases. 12.0.8 seems to have a bunch of fixes included, along with a slew of PQRS fixes. Hopefully, CHUG this week will yield good results with 12.0.8 and we can skip all the nonsense folks have been putting up with in V5-7.
We will install SP8 as it fixes a few items, but like others have said, it doesn't fix many of the common issues that have already been identified and fixed in 12.1 (now 12.2) that will be released later this year.
