Those issues you describe are likely not related to the version, rather the
configuration.

Should you suffer those symptoms again, post their description and your
config here and we¹ll try to help out as best we can :)

When upgrading anything of value I would suggest trying it on a test system.
Luckily with BIND, that should be fairly easy.

Depending on how you feel, this might be an opportunity to clean up an old
config. If not, then you can use your existing config and test how the
upgrade will affect it without causing your company problems.

Yes it can be helpful for an ISP. Check out the announcement with each major
release for full details. But significantly, 9.6 will contain a lot more
DNSSEC support/features than 9.3.4.

Here is a very brief page with the highlights:

Also note that 9.3.4 is no longer a current release.
