1I would use the latest release (5.4 is a bug-fix release); using an older version just invites the question of when do you upgrade to 5.3 or 5.4? – Elliott Frisch Mar 15 '16 at 18:36

DSpace 5.4 is a stable release with more bug and security fixes than 5.2 so I would recommend 5.4.
The DSpace releases page so you can compare the versions yourself.
Remember, Google is your friend.

Yes, I researched the matter and found that in many forums, users recommended version 5.2. – Brendow Adriel Mar 15 '16 at 18:51

I asked also for some universities and many of them me recommend version 5.2 to upgrade. – Brendow Adriel Mar 15 '16 at 18:51

2@BrendowAdriel Have you checked the date the forum messages were posted? Version 5.4 may not have been the latest stable build at the time. Anyways, the latest stable build is the version you want, unless it's missing something your current build has; and this is a security and bug fix build which makes it all the better to choose. – Luke Melaia Mar 15 '16 at 19:03
