SuiteCRM – a very popular Customer relationship management (CRM) – allows updating in two ways. From the admin area and from the command line. In both cases, you will need the update package which can be found on https://suitecrm.com/upgrade-suitecrm/ For example, in case you upgrade from v 7.11.x to v 7.12.4, download the file:
7.12.4 Upgrade from 7.11.x 10 February 2022 49.8MB
