Implementing 2004 before 2015 revision

I was just wondering if you could give me your opinion on whether or not you think it would be beneficial for companies who are not ISO 14001 certified to achieve ISO 14001:2004 prior to achieving ISO 14001:2015 OR if you think it's better if companies go straight towards achieving ISO 14001:2015 and skip over v. 2004?

Answer:

I think it is the best to go strait towards ISO 14001:2015 because if you implement the 2004 revision first, you will need to make transition to the 2015 revision until September 2018 and this means you will need additional time and resources for something that you could done at the first time.
