Upgrading RSA 2015 to RSA 2016

[Anonymous]

Hi all,

I would like to upgrade RSA 2015 to RSA 2016 and just have some simple queries. 

If I upgrade to RSA 2016, will models from RSA 2015 version be compatible? Some of these models are still live so its important to be able to still use them.  

Is it possible to keep both 2015 and 2016 versions on your computer or does 2015 get wiped as soon as 2016 is installed? 

Is RSA 2016 compatible with Revit 2015 (or does Revit also need to be upgraded to new version)? 

Thanks,

Sarah

Compatible?

Robot files from older version can be opened in newer one. Not in opposite direction.

No backwards compatibility.

Yes

Is RSA 2016 compatible with Revit 2015 (or does Revit also need to be upgraded to new version)? 

Theoretically yes. 

It is recommended to use both products of the same version.
