ARIS 7.2 to ARIS 9.7 Upgrade

Hi,

 

We are planning to upgrade from ARIS 7.2 to ARIS 9.7. I have a few questions in this regard

 

1) Is it possible for a direct upgrade from 7.2 to 9.7 i.e Will it be required to uninstall ARIS 7.2 before installation or will ARIS 9.7 setup take care of it.

 

2) We currently have ARIS 7.2 Designer Server and Publisher server on the same server and we do not face any performance issues with it. Can we install ARIS 9.7 Designer and Publisher server on the same server?

 

PS: We are not using ARIS Connect and ARIS Risk and compliance for now.

 

Regards,

Vijay
