TrueNAS can be used in many ways, and choosing which version of TrueNAS to use is often a tradeoff between the desire for new features and the need to reduce operational risk for given use cases. Whether you are a developer, an early adopter, a mission-critical user, or somewhere in between, the recommendations in the table below are updated regularly and can help you choose which version is best for you at any point in time<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

* TrueNAS CORE is no longer under active development. For our users who are seeking the latest features and functionality, please consider migrating your TrueNAS system to TrueNAS Community Edition.
<\/span><\/p>\n

Recommendations are based on User Type and their expectations for software quality. Each user gets to decide on whether they want the latest features, the highest maturity, or something in between.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
User Type<\/b><\/th>\nExpectations<\/b><\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n
Developer<\/strong><\/td>\nLatest software with new features and bugs alike.\u00a0 There is an opportunity to contribute directly to the
development process.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Tester<\/b><\/td>\nNew software with recent features. Some bugs are expected and\u00a0 there is a willingness to provide bug
reports and feedback to the developers.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Early Adopter<\/strong><\/td>\nReleased software with new features. Data is protected, but some issues may need workarounds or
patience.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
General<\/strong><\/td>\nField tested software with mature features. Few issues are expected.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Conservative<\/strong><\/td>\nMature software with well documented limitations. Software updates are infrequent.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Mission Critical<\/strong><\/td>\nMature software that enables 24 x 7 operations with high availability for a very clearly defined use
case. Software updates are very infrequent and based on need.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

 <\/p>\n

In all cases for systems with a TrueNAS support contract from iX,<\/b> we recommend contacting the TrueNAS Support team<\/a> prior to updating your TrueNAS appliance. Our Support team can provide advice based on your unique requirements and be there to help you resolve any unexpected issues.<\/p>\n

We recommend that you bookmark this page, and refer back to it anytime you consider\u00a0 upgrading TrueNAS to monitor the latest release status. You can expect that the latest version of software may be recommended for general use but will not be recommended for conservative or mission critical environments until a few weeks or months post-release once it has received further testing in more complex environments.<\/p>\n
