Should I update O/S to Yosemite?

Running a Desktop Pro with 2x 2.4Ghz 6 core Xeon with 32 gb and wondering if its time to go to Yosemite. Got a new mac Air laptop and its running my main programs, Office 2011 and Adobe cloud that I am tempted to update.


Anyone got any horror stories or success stories they want to share before I hold my nose & plunge in? I learned to not be in a rush at every new update, so my gut say do it, Magic 8 Ball states, "Its Unsure." I usually trust it to guide me. Looking forward to any and all help...

Mac Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5), 256GB SSD, 32GB Ram

It runs fine on our 2 computers. One option is to create a new partition (~30- 50 GB), install the new OS, and ‘test drive’ it. If you like/don’t like it it, you can then remove the partition. Do a backup before you do anything. By doing this, if you don’t like it you won’t have to go though the revert process.
