From a pool of about 40 clients I have supported in the last 10 years, I am actively engaged with about three at any one time, largely for upgrade, migration, and integration issues.
P6 in any iteration other than the fairly awful ‘P6 Cloud’ (any actual users out there?) is end of life. Some would argue (me included) that started when Oracle bought Primavera.
There are some minor enhancements as you progress through the versions. These are sometimes worth having. I was surprised and delighted when, after 20 years, automatic row height based on content now works.
Of course, there are bug fixes, which are almost all associated with the ever-changing Web interface, for whom I have no clients.
The rule has always been if isn’t broken, don’t fix it.

The latest release is P6 version 23.10. If your organization is using the cloud or EPPM version, the Oracle team managing the cloud keeps their clients updated. For those using the professional version, the organization's IT team, responsible for maintaining the license, should ensure they stay updated; otherwise, it will not update automatically. It's a good practice to have the latest version as it resolves bugs reported within the Oracle community, including additional functions and more.
