## Zulip server and web app version
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If your organization self-hosts Zulip, the server administrator will need to
 | 
						|
[upgrade Zulip][upgrade-zulip] in order for you to experience the latest
 | 
						|
improvements. You can check which [version][changelog] of the Zulip server and
 | 
						|
web app your organization is using.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Zulip Cloud organizations are always updated to the latest version of Zulip.
