“For Windows 10, Microsoft went

all-out to turn around

perceptions among corporate

customers…”

“The bottom line? Microsoft is

going to bend over backwards to

make the business transition to

Windows 10 as easy as possible.”

“Windows as a service makes

Windows 10 the most attractive

development platform ever.”

“Windows 10 supports learning,

business development, and

efficiencies across our school.

It’s the best version yet.”

“Windows 10 brings the best of

Windows 7 and 8 together, but

security is the driving force

behind our rapid transition to the

new platform. The new

capabilities for information

protection and malware

resistance will help us deal with

new and emerging threats.”

“With the school already

using Office 365 moving

to Windows 10 has been problem

free. We haven't experienced any

issues with compatibility of

software or with the devices. The

school has been able to transform

how they use IT with the use

of Windows 10.”

Windows 10 Momentum

*Testing conducted by Principled Technologies in July 2015 in a closed lab environment using

OEM factory default images on a representative sample of Windows 7 devices. Each booth test

was run 10 times and the averages compared. Average improvement in startup was 28%.

“It took two to three weeks and we finished in mid-August, ready for

the school returning in early September,” says Melvyn Akins. The

installation, he adds, has been very straightforward. “It's the first

Windows 10 set up we've done, and apart from one or two small

issues, the actual fundamentals of the process have been seamless.”

“Expensive computers were once the reserve of high end institutions

and wealthy individuals. Today, it's the complete opposite. Parents

and children want more from their schools and we're going to give

it to them!” St. John Fisher began their upgrade to Windows 10 on

July 29 – the day of the release.

“Microsoft has really gotten its act together with Windows 10,

and we think Microsoft can beat its self-stated goal of reaching

1 billion Windows 10 devices in 2-3 years. Not only is the UI

more polished and intuitive for consumers, but the company

has also worked very closely with the critical commercial user

segment to get the OS to where it needed to be."

“The adoption of Windows 10 has been really straightforward.

We worried about upgrade times and we worried whether [the

devices] would be ready, would they run. But in the summer

we kind of bit the bullet and upgraded all the student

devices…and it's been great -- we've had no problems. It was

all done in just a couple of days with one technician on-site,

and we don't need a service pack." “Windows 10 has been successfully installed on all computers in our

IT labs [and] perfectly works with all of our IT software and

applications used during classes.”
