As Adobe Reader XI is EoL I am looking for the next release to deploy to my company.
Of course there is "Reader DC" but I also found a perfectly funtioning "Reader 2017" - which is NOT DC.
See a screenshot of a coparison (dont mind the German GUI):
Personally I would rather go with Reader 2017.
I like the GUI better and the release cycles seem more company-friendly:
Release Notes | Adobe Acrobat, Reader
Also we don't use any Adobe Cloud features.
As you can see we have three choices:
Reader DC (continious track; always newest features)
Reader DC (classic track; mostly security updates)
Reader 2017 (only classic track)
Adobe seems like "keeping silence" about Reader 2017 and I would be afraid that it gets dropped within a few months, so I am unsecure of switching vom Reader XI to Reader 2017.
Does anyone have more liable information about "Reader 2017"??

Both versions uses the same GUI.
Reader 2017 is the latest version of Reader DC (classic track).
