I personally would not advocate moving to Administration Center 6.3 - I've
had a nightmare with it starting with the installation. On Windows, the
depth of the directory structure on the unpacked install media is so long
that placing it more than one directory down causes the install to fail
due to the length of the longest path to the files. It then installs some
extraneous services that must then be disabled. (The latter problem is
fixed in 6.3.1.)

Once installed the performance under IE8 / IE9 is so slow as to make it
unusable. Performance is better under the latest versions of Chrome and
Firefox but there are links and functionality that work in IE which simply
give errors in these other browsers.

I've had a PMR open for a month now to do with performance under IE but it
seems to be going nowhere. Meanwhile I've got a bunch of users who are
openly revolting against it and want to go back to v5.5 of the TSM ISC
(which to me tells you everything you need to know about 6.3!)
