For older versions of the SES Server, there may be certain interim upgrade steps that may be necessary to move from an old or obsolete version of SecureDoc Enterprise Server and upgrade to the current version.

Note: For large deployments, we recommend customers work with a WinMagic Professional Services Engineer (PSE) to generate an upgrade plan, complete with lab testing.
