I ran into issues with sme-9.2: https://forums.contribs.org/index.php/topic,54403.msg284678.html#msg284678
which I "solved" (short term) by translating my sme-9.2 VM image to qcow2 format: https://conshell.net/wiki/Convert_from_VMware_to_QEMU
However, decided to try sme-10 latest, since my sme-9.2 sites are becoming unstable and now unmaintainable. Observations:
- my php / python scl (sme-9.2 had too old package versions) issues went away. sme-10 php / python versions much more modern, so scl version control not required for my more modern (xoops CMS) site: www.rossco.org
- did not run into any hard to solve issues (mostly related to moving my site, no sme-10 issues), went pretty smooth
Have a few legacy sites, trouble on sme-10 (need older php), another topic.

Excellent.
If you ask for a Rocket account & come & test & talk to us we can help, and you can help us test.
There are various ways of using older php.
CentOS7 has php 5.4 by default which will be supported for the lifetime of CentOS7.
With php-fpm you can use other versions, including php 8....
Really would suggest you stick to supported versions only though, for your own security.
So 5.4, and php-fpm 7.3 (until Dec 202) or preferably 7.4+
You really should be upgrading systems though. Yup. It's a pain in the butt. I hate rapid release..... Hey ho.

Yeah !
Thank you for the feedback. Great news.
As pointed by John, you can use any version of php from 5.4 to 8.0
just do
db accounts setprop myibay PHPVersion ""
signal-event ibay-modify myibay
and your ibay myibay will use php54.
and contrary to fpm with sme9, fpm allows you to set per ibay php settings. ie upload size etc.

Further info:
Need to update smeserver-php:
yum install smeserver-php --enablerepo=smeupdates-testing
and:
db accounts setprop myibay PHPVersion "" #select php54
prop PHPVersion not set #select php7x
