Windows 10 readiness workshop
Upgrade to the most secure Windows ever
Workshop overview
With Windows 7 reaching end of support in January 2020, upgrading to Windows 10 is a sensible option.
It’s the most secure Windows release ever with built in internet protections and a firewall, it safeguards your business against viruses, malware and ransomware.
It also comes with a whole host of new functionality, including the ability to synchronize your phone and desktop. Plus, as we move to a Cloud centric world, where you can get ‘anything as a service’, its beneficial to have a strong platform that can flex with your future technology innovations.
However, if you’re still reeling from a painful Windows 8 upgrade and the idea of upgrading to Windows 10 gives you chills, then why not register for a readiness assessment workshop?
Our IT consultants are available to discuss your current desktop and infrastructure environment as well as your application portfolio, they will bounce ideas around with you and create a readiness plan to ensure a smooth transition to Windows 10.
We can tailor the agenda to suit you, but the areas we typically cover are:
- Desktop hardware compatibility with Windows 10
- Business application requirements – prioritised and compared to the Windows 10 application database
- Your IT infrastructure and its compatibility with Windows 10, including ongoing updates, patches and backups
- Your offices or ours.
- 3-4 hours.
- We’ll produce a report compiling our discussion and will provide some recommended actions, which we’ll run through with you either face to face or via a phone call.
- Complete our registration form and a consultant will ring you back to understand your business needs and propose an agenda.
