I was leary about going to a beta on my live board, but I made sql backups, site backups, and complete file backups just to be safe.
The install took about 5 minutes. Template remodding took a couple of hours.
I have OVER 40 mods on my board
vBSEO
vBAdvanced
v3Arcade
Casino
Radio and TV
Horoscopes
Flashchat
LDM
Classifieds
vBtube
Google Hotspots
Members map
vBlogs
and tons of others.

My experience in upgrading has been excellent too. Be sure to join the 3.7 live group (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/group.php?groupid=402)!

This should be in the feedback/suggestions board, but very nice to see. Me and a partner upgraded a live site to the beta, which the same precautions, and have yet to see an instability issue. Some features via ACP might be bugged, but generally everything has been smooth sailing.
Very good job vB team!

That made me smile :) Visiting the group page now.
Please be sure to post your experiences after some more testing.

Yes, have to agree! Do not have 40 mods...a little less :D but also a big thank you to vb team!
Well, our installation uses what, 2-5 mods? Hehe, I find that the software is perfectly fine in features and that mods are only added to give more to the experience, in due time. Then again, it depends on your setup, as we have a site and a forum, not a forum site ;)

Try commenting on one of your blogs as an UNREGISTERED USER. I'm having issues doing anything as an Unregistered/logged out user, even though its configured correctly.

Spoke too soon...
Two of my mods are having issues:
LDM (Links and Download Manager)
Radio and TV
Both authors confirm these were broken by 3.7 and are working on fixes/updated versions of the mods.
In reply to Cranium;
No, I cannot- but I am not sure I would like unregistered users commenting on profiles. Are you sure they are supposed to be able to?

There is an update release for LDM, check in vb.org, in the 3.7 mods forums.
I'm testing it and it seems to work fine so far. :p

Almost as good as my upgrade went. 60 mods but only 2 didn't work.
