Yes. No major issues for me.

Check to make sure your applications are compatible.

Do a backup before installing, preferable 2 backups on 2 different drives.

You can upgrade from Snow Leopard on up as long as your Mac meets the requirements.

I would suggest that you do a backup first before doing the upgrade to El Capitan.
