Hi

Direct upgrade from 7.0 to 7.12 horizon is supported as per upgrade matrix:

VMware Product Interoperability Matrices

Make sure your current vCenter&ESXi versions are supported with horizon 7.12 before upgrading. You can find this info here:

VMware Product Interoperability Matrices

Once above informations are validated, you can follow below guide to upgrade horizon:

https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-Horizon-7/7.12/horizon-upgrades.pdf

Typical upgrade path sequence is: View composer server > View connection servers > View agent on master images > View clients.

Take full backup and snapshot of all servers before performing upgrade: VMware Knowledge Base

The other risks post upgrades includes use of old models of zero/thin-clients in the environment, make sure they are supported with latest release before upgrade:
