      Simple solution with great SSD speed

      • "Microsoft could improve the support for installing programs."

      What is our primary use case?

      We use Windows 10 for regular office jobs and automation design.

      What is most valuable?

      The speed with SSD is great. Before Windows 10, it was so slow, but after Windows 10, it's ten times faster with SSD. We have been using Windows programs for about 20 years and have upgraded from Windows XP to Windows 7, then to Windows 10.

      What needs improvement?

      Microsoft could improve the support for installing programs. It should be easy to install programs from Microsoft and search in the Microsoft Store.

      For how long have I used the solution?

      We have been using this solution for seven years. It is Windows 10 Enterprise, and we are using version 19.09.

      It's a stable solution.

      What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

      It's scalable, and we have about 1500 people using this solution in my company.

      How are customer service and support?

      We have never used the technical support team.

      How was the initial setup?

      The initial setup was straightforward and was the best thing we have done. We had an SSD and USB 3.0 flash disk, and it took 40 minutes.

      What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

      We have a commercial license for all of our competitors, and it is sensitive.

      What other advice do I have?

      I rate this solution a nine out of ten. Regarding advice, it is very simple, and if you know how to use a computer, you can use it.

        It's good for running business applications and remote desktop connections
        Pros and Cons
        • "Windows 10 is stable, but you need to install system updates constantly and download new antivirus definitions to avoid getting into any trouble."
        • "One of my colleagues said Microsoft doesn't have a good record for the license. If the license gets lost, there isn't a dashboard where I can register my license and use it via the dashboard. We are looking for a dashboard like that."

        What is our primary use case?

        I mostly use Windows 10 to run Microsoft Office. I also use it for remote desktop connections.

        What needs improvement?

        One of my colleagues said Microsoft doesn't have a good record for the license. If the license gets lost, there isn't a dashboard where I can register my license and use it via the dashboard. We are looking for a dashboard like that.

        For how long have I used the solution?

        I've been using Windows 10 since it was first released. 

        What do I think about the stability of the solution?

        What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

        Windows 10 is scalable. We have around 10,000 users at my company. 

        How are customer service and support?

        I've never contacted Microsoft support. Our engineering department takes care of that.

        How was the initial setup?

        The company's tech team handles the installation, so I'm unsure. 

        What other advice do I have?

        I rate Windows 10 eight out of 10.

              The solution is okay. We use Windows due to the fact that the system is good for us and for our information system. 

              The performance is good and it is stable.
