We are planning an upgrade from CPS 10.1.3.300. So far, this has been the most stable version of CPS that we have ever been on (still far from perfect). So my question is, should I upgrade to 11.1.1, or make the bigger leap to the latest version of 12? We are not pursuing MU phase 2 so the only reason to upgrade at this point is ICD10 support. Both 11 and 12 should handle ICD10, so the biggest deciding factor for me would be stability. Which version has the least bugs?

We are still evaluating it, but 11.1.3 seems to be the least buggy incarnation of 11.

How do I go about getting a newer version like 11.1.3? If I go to the website and request media, they only have the option of 11.1.1.
Are you pursuing Stage 1 MU? It was my understanding if you are doing any stage of MU in 2014 you will need to upgrade to 12.
".0" of any software is usually a bad idea

CPS 11 is still a MU Stage 1 certified product.

Here is a paste of the email sent by GE when it went to GA status.
