Difference between 10.4 and 10.8 Arc Map

Question

Greetings to all, in view of my connections at the college and university with the students and our constant need for the version mentioned in the title of the article, I hope everyone just lists the most important features of version 10.8 so that we can work on it and be a gateway to entering the ARC GIS Pro system.

I would also consider this blog for additional information about ENTERPRISE.  https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/arcgis-enterprise/administration/consider-arcgis-enterprise-10-9-1-until-youre-ready-to-turn-it-up-to-11/

There are really important items that you need to stay at 10.9x or below as long as you depend on ArcMap.  It is becoming very compelling to go ahead and move on to Pro.

Thank you for adding the 10.4 to 10.5 transition.

I have used Arcmap products for 15 years. The differences between 10.4 and 10.8.2 are many. Let's examine them incrementally:

10.4 to 10.6 (I could not find 10.5): https://desktop.arcgis.com/en/arcmap/10.6/get-started/introduction/whats-new-in-arcgis.htm#

10.6 to 10.7: https://desktop.arcgis.com/en/arcmap/10.7/get-started/introduction/whats-new-in-arcgis.htm

10.7 to 10.8: https://desktop.arcgis.com/en/arcmap/latest/get-started/introduction/whats-new-in-arcgis.htm

And to add more. There is considerable difference between ArcPRO 1.0 and ArcPRO 3.1. The good news, in my opinion, ArcPRO 3.1 is more intuitive than ArcPRO 1.0 and ArcMap 4.
