8.0 should (hopefully) be a very short lived release in the wild. There's no reason at all not to upgrade to 8.1, even in a corporate setting, 8.1 is free, and the upgrade process is very smooth.
At one point CheckPoint VPN didn't support 8.1, now it does. One of my customers uses it so I held off upgrading. There could well be other apps with similar issues and big corporates would prefer others discover them.
