Is there any reason at all to upgrade to El Cap? The hassles people are encountering give me a strong NO answer. Inviting troubles into one's computer seems like a terrible idea.

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)

My two cents? Its faster, more stable, fixed some bugs.

If oyu have lots of 3rd party software you may run into incompatibilities
It is disturbing how many times the update appears to have created minor or major corruption.

So, do as i did - make a bootable backup, then upgrade. If all's well, proceed. If not, revert.
