If it's that big of an upgrade, and your primary customers are North American based, why the fuck do you decide first thing in the morning of a weekday is the time to roll that out? Grab a fresh pot of coffee and start that shit at 10:00 p.m.
Normally, the odd times are because someone can't work the weekend, which is crazy to me since I am someone who accepts all the worst go live times...
Although the more I think about it, would there really have been a fantastic day or time? Even weekends suck because it affects everything so even then it would have sucked plus if it did bring down companies those people are now doing work on the weekends as well. Idk if I disagree with a late time smack in the middle of the week date for this the more I think about it.
I think it makes sense to do it when they did. There wasn't anticipated down time. If there is a problem, most of the office workers and technicians are going to be in the office.
If you do it at night you're just asking for a delayed response.
