[mstrqauser]

Hi Folks ,

We are doing an Upgrade from Microstrategy 7.2 to Microstrategy 8.0 in couple of weeks . I have been
given the task of researching on the differences/changes
between 7.2 and 8.0 . Would somebody be able to share
their thoughts on this . Thanks

The web has a completely different architecture. Customization, if you have it, will be rendered useless. Everything is now based off of XML control files and java beans. As for Desktop, Free Form SQL, Logical Tables, OLAP cube integration are big enhancements.

Thanks,
