Hi wagnerone !
The biggest issues are, that the classic browser extension is not supported from 1Password 8 and that 1Password 8 is not supporting local vaults. So if you want to switch to 1Password 8 you have to switch the browser extension, too. And if anyone of you is using a local vault, he / she is not able to use it after switching.
Next thing is the change of the UI. If you start using 1Password 8 you have to get used to the new UI and there are some features that are not implemented yet.
But you could try 1Password 8 by yourself. On Windows, 1Password 7 is automatically removed when installing v8. On Mac, you have to manually remove v7. If you are not comfortable with the new version, you could remove v8 and go back to v7 till it isn't supported anymore.
