+# Upgrading cachet 2.3 to 2.4
+
+# PHP 7
+Cachet 2.4 is build using the Laravel 5.6 which requires at least PHP 7.1.3 or higher.
+
+# Backups
+In previous versions Cachet would ship with `backup-manager/laravel` to create database backups at certain points when 
+running the software. This is no longer provided by default in 2.4. You are free to implement your custom backup 
+solution when running cachet on your environments. If you do prefer a backup solution close to the pre 2.4 Cachet version: 
+Spatie has created [a backup manager](https://github.com/spatie/laravel-backup) that comes close to the original implementation.
