Upgraded a couple months ago. Seems to be fine, although I don't use it as much as most on here.

Beta tested it with the Beta team. been solid and some major bugs have been worked out since beta. What's your concern?

I'm considering upgrading as well, but have been holding off. My concern would be a 2015 situation, but it doesn't sound like it's a major change from 2017.

LOL! Never will 3shape let a 2015 happen again. I think 2018 is more solid then 2016 and 2017. And nobel accepts cases on 2018.1 so does straumann and almost most implant mfg now.

I refrained from 2.17.3, still running 2.17.2 - planning on updating to 2018 in the next couple weeks. We've rarely gotten badly burnt (waited a long time with 2015 too).

Will be upgrading from 2.17.3 to 2018 later this week. With my simpler cases I do, no major problem with 17.3, except at times it takes it awhile to correlate
uppers and lowers in ScanIt Dental. Also, the preview doesn't always load after design w/o a refresh. Maybe it's been that way for awhile?

Running 18.2 now - I noticed changes to die interface settings (die spacer, drill comp etc.) after bringing original design back in for adjustment won't actually take hold unless you do reconnect to margin in design stage. It looks like it works in the interfaces step, but it actually won't change the intaglio until reconnect to margin is applied.

Our issue alone or 18.2 (maybe 18.1?) for everyone?

This morning I had to re-design 2 centrals from yesterday, and didn't notice any changes to my die spacer etc settings. I'm on 18.2.

In 18.2 I'm finding that skipping past the opening option to align the occlusal table is easier to do later in the design steps.
It will line up with the occlusal table orientation green circle dealie for articulation more closely than in the opening step to do that alignment.

We just update to 17.3 and we are having problems. How do you like the 2018? Is it Better?

Can you tell us how it went? We are considering going to 2018, we dont like the 17.3 we just got last week. We stayed "safe" on 2016
