The page is designed to help customers prepare for and perform a successful upgrade on their production instance.

 

In Upgrades Best Practices you will learn about:

  • Treat your upgrade like any other project so your time, resources, and costs are visible to everyone.
  • Follow the ServiceNow upgrade process to ensure you stay on track.
  • Review skipped changes and make decisions about them.
  • Create test plans before you upgrade to standardize the process—and shorten testing and upgrade time.
  • Future‑proof your upgrades—follow the technical best practices and check for vulnerabilities.

 

 

Using the Upgrades Best Practices page, you can create a repeatable process customized for upgrading your instances. This process can help you upgrade to new versions of ServiceNow faster.

You are right Adnan! I updated the links in this post with more current resources. Our Customer Success center actually has a downloadable best practices guide for upgrading your instance. Great for customers.
