I did exactly the same thing Petr and I had no problems either, in fact it has been so good I forgot all about the upgrade.
I updated one PC using an ISO and another using WUA. No problems on either (knock on wood).

So far so good for me (knock on wood also) and this is on a laptop that went through all the major update/upgrade paths from Vista :)
A few weeks ago I updated via WUA from Win10 Anniv Edition. But first I took a system image before doing anything.
 
First 2 times updating failed for some reason so Windows decided to gracefully rolled back.  So on a whim I turned off an antivirus I was testing at the time and tried again.  Successful update this time.

I aviod manual install of anything for the most part.  They are a headache.  I will wait for the automatic upgrade.
