Upgrade Mac OS Sierra to Catalina: What You Need to Know

Are you considering upgrading your Mac from macOS Sierra to Catalina? Before making the leap, it's essential to weigh the pros and cons of this major operating system update.

While Apple has touted Catalina as a significant improvement over previous versions, we recommend exercising caution before upgrading. Our team is currently testing non-essential machines to familiarize ourselves with the new features and identify any potential issues.

Reasons Not to Upgrade to Catalina (Yet)

Catalina offers some exciting new features, including Screen Time, Sidecar, and enhanced Photos, Reminders, and Notes apps. Additionally, Mac Catalyst will make it easier for developers to create iPad apps compatible with the Mac. The release also introduces new music, TV, and Podcasts apps to replace iTunes.

However, we strongly advise against upgrading without doing your due diligence first. To ensure a smooth transition, take the time to review our article and consider the following:

* What are the specific benefits of upgrading for your business or personal use?

* Are there any potential compatibility issues with your existing software or hardware?

* Have you backed up your data and taken necessary precautions against data loss?

Highlights of Apple macOS Catalina

Apple released macOS 10.15 Catalina on October 7, 2019, and has been promoting it since its introduction at the Worldwide Developer Conference in June.

If you're eager to try out the new features, we encourage you to read this article carefully before upgrading. Keep in mind that we are not yet endorsing Big Sur for business use and will be posting an article on that topic soon.
