Windows 10 End of Life: What Are Your Options?
Windows 10 support is ending, and that creates both risk and opportunity for your IT team. This video explains how to approach the transition, from using Microsoft's Extended Security Updates to upgrading or replacing devices, including whether to consider AI PCs. Watch the video to learn how to safeguard your systems and plan a secure, cost-effective future. Contact PRIVAXI for help evaluating your Windows 11 upgrade path.
What happens when Windows 10 support ends?
When support for Windows 10 ends, organizations may face increased security risks as they will no longer receive updates or patches. It's essential to evaluate the potential vulnerabilities and plan for a transition to ensure continued protection for your IT infrastructure.
What are Extended Security Updates?
Microsoft's Extended Security Updates (ESU) provide an option for organizations to receive critical security updates for a limited time after the end of support. While this can help mitigate risks temporarily, it is a short-term solution and comes with additional costs. Organizations should weigh these factors against the long-term benefits of upgrading to a newer operating system.
Should we upgrade to Windows 11 or buy new devices?
The decision to upgrade to Windows 11 or purchase new devices depends on various factors, including the current hardware capabilities and budget constraints. Upgrading existing devices can be a cost-effective strategy, but investing in new AI PCs may offer enhanced performance and future-proofing advantages. Organizations should assess their specific needs and long-term goals when making this choice.
