Upgrade from V8 business multi to V11 business plus??

[Andy Warner]

Hi folks,
I run 10 shops from a shared DB using V8 multi, with some Mole End backend stuff and a few choice hacks (such as improved search, cascading menus etc). All sites are non standard CSS based.

Anyone upgraded V8 to V11 using multi sites?

If so, what were the deal clinchers? - Id like a much better search function, ability to order by price etc on a page, seach by manufacturer or range.

Any comments welcome!

The features you mention do not exist in Actinic, so in essence moving from V8 to V11 will do nothing in those areas. There are however a number of improvements in V11 in relation to V8. Why not download the free 30 day trial and take a look, you can load it up standalone so it does not touch your existing sites. MOTO, compressed uploads, SPP, single use vouchers, correct VAT rounding are a few of the improvements that spring to mind.

Crikey - it's worth upgrading to v10 or 11 just for the compressed upload alone
