O: This may be useful for managers of small offices with several company PCs who want to set a monthly patch date and create a procedure for testing major upgrades on one non-critical PC first. X: The source contains no measurement data or case figures showing the effect of these methods, and the recommendations are general advice from the blog publisher. You should also check that automatic updates can cause compatibility issues with business programs.
