18 is safe to update to, but you will get the most out of it if you are using Windows 10. I have never had any issue with it on both Windows 7 and 10.

Subject: [WebAIM] JAWS 18 - safe to upgrade

I'd heard many statements back when JAWS 18 was released that it wasn't stable and/or usable enough to upgrade to. Therefore we're still using/supporting JAWS 17. Have the issues been sufficiently addressed to commit to JAWS 18 yet?
