Windows 10 Reviews

Windows 10 can be used for running personal or business applications.

The most valuable feature of this solution is its ease of use. It is the most used operating system in the world.

The solution can improve by making it more private and allowing users to know what operations are going on in the background code. More transparency is needed. For example, there is a project called Purism which is a Linux operating system that comes in a form of a phone or a laptop. Their focus is transparency, if I wanted to know what exactly is happening on my device, I can always go to the project documentation and take a look for my peace of mind.

I have been using Windows 10 for approximately five years.

Everyone in my organization is using this solution.

I have never needed to open a ticket with the Microsoft technical team.

I have used Purism Linux.

The installation is simple and anyone could do it.

We have a team that does the implementation and maintenance of the solution.

The solution can be expensive for businesses to use Microsoft Windows 10.

I would not recommend Windows 10 personally, but because it is the most used operating system, most employees in an organization would adapt to it quickly. They are familiar with it. 

It is good to look at alternatives and evaluate. At the same time never underestimate the effect of rejection that end users can have if you change the technology.

I would advise others using Windows solutions to invest heavily in the security products, they are the most used operating system. That does not make it less secure than other operating systems but it makes it more targeted. When it is more targeted you will have more vulnerabilities and therefore it is really important to focus on the security aspects when it comes to Windows infrastructure.

I rate Windows 10 a seven out of ten.

I'm a manager of data center facilities and we are customers of Microsoft. 

This solution is very user friendly and reliable. 

I'd like to see less restrictions on the use so it would be easier to use and manage. 

I've been using this product for over 10 years. 

The initial setup is pretty straightforward. It's pushed down from the server, so it's usually  quite fast. The deployment is done in-house and we have around 10,000 users. 

I rate this solution an eight out of 10.

We use Windows 10 just for the voice platform.

I like that it's stable and secure.

It could be more secure. We just want them to focus on security.

I have been using Windows 10 for years.

It's stable.

It's scalable. We have more than 100,000 people using this solution.

We used multiple servers, including Linux and Windows Server.

The initial setup is easy. It took me about 30 to 40 minutes to set up and deploy this solution. 

Sometimes we do it by ourselves or else we used to go to some technicians.

We pay for the license, and it's fine.

I would recommend Windows 10 to new users.

On a scale from one to ten, I would give Windows 10 a ten.

It's all right. It does the job. We use it for emails and troubleshooting widgets — stuff like that. Within our organization, there are roughly 100 employees using this solution.

Windows 10 is easy to use. It's not like Windows 8 where it had that "start menu" that took up the entire screen. I didn't like that one.

It's very straightforward. There is virtually no learning curve at all.

The updates could be improved. Sometimes when we update, there are instances where it fails or crashes. I wish they would sort that out. When the update is downloaded, maybe we could have a method of checking that the downloaded update from Windows is alright so it doesn't damage our computers before restarting it.

For me, that's the most troubling part — crashing after we've updated it. I've experienced that many times. There are instances where it has actually corrupted the Windows OS, then we have to reformat it.

Every time I have to reformat and install Windows, I have to remove so many pre-installed games and other unnecessary junk. I don't like that. It's just a bother having to remove them again and again and again.

I have been using this solution since it first hit the market.

Stability-wise, Windows 10 is great.

It's very easy to expand Windows 10.

I have to contact technical support from time to time. They're efficient, I always get what I need from them.

The initial setup is simple. It's just like any other setup of Windows.

Typically, I set it up myself. My team also knows how to deploy it. Installation takes roughly 30 to 45 minutes.

Sometimes we have to maintain it. Sometimes it slows down and we have to defragment it. Often, it's actually the computer itself that's slow simply because it's dirty; so we have to open up the computer and clean it. We handle all maintenance on our own, including cleaning the computers if they're dirty.

For Filipino standards, it's quite expensive. We pay per license. So far, there have been no hidden costs.

Windows 10 is a big step up from Windows 7. Windows 8 was not that great. Overall, Windows 10 is a lot better than previous versions.

You'll have to update as soon as Windows 7 is no longer supported. If you stick with Windows 7, there are going to be security risks as it's not supported and updated by Windows. That's a big deal if you want security, etc.

I would absolutely recommend Windows 10 to others. Overall, on a scale from one to ten, I would give this solution a rating of nine.

While we use this solution, we also sell it. 

We sell Windows, and we install it for our customers.

I don´t think that Windows 10 has improved our organization. In fact, Microsoft has reached a standard in nearly all branches to be the standard OS for the most common things. So nearly in every branch we sell PCs or sell maintenance we have to do it with Microsoft Software, especially with Microsoft OS.

It is well-known. I use it because everyone is using it.

The usability is satisfactory.

Windows explorer does not support two Windows systems. For example, in Mac OS, you can open tabs such as your windows browsers, and you can switch between devices or file systems. This can't be done in Windows Explorer. You have to open two separate windows and you can only do this when your monitor is large enough, or if you have more than one monitor.

The licensing should be more flexible.

I have been using Windows 10 since it was released.

Windows 10 is a stable product.

Windows 10 is now nearly also over eight years old. One of the main topics that help this OS to be so popular is, that most software that is written on this planet is working with, that nearly every device that has a USB connection could be recognized by your computer. Windows 10 is stable and has good scalability.

We have not reached out to technical support. If Windows has a problem, we can usually fix it ourselves. We also rely on Google for assistance.

Negative

In private, I use Mac OS, which I prefer to Windows 10.

I have used several operating systems, as well as Outlook, Microsoft Office, and Microsoft Planner.

I do not install this solution, my technical colleagues install it.

We implemented the solution in-house.

As I mentioned above, Microsoft doesn´t give resellers the opportunity to gain real money with the product itself. Microsoft wants the partners to build themselves some solutions around their ecosystem. But Microsoft did not understand, that most resellers are not inevitably software programmers or designers. Most of the resellers are solution providers in a maybe "older" category of service.

The licensing fees could be more flexible.

Some of the issues we're having are when your company wants a license or when we don't know if that license can be merged. It is extremely difficult for Microsoft as a company because Microsoft is based in the United States and we live in Germany. We also have other options available here. In this regard, Microsoft is very rigid and unforgiving.

On the OS side, you have no choice. You are heavily connected to the facto standard from Microsoft. Also in the matter of email client systems, if you use an exchange, you can't use other email client systems with the same comfort. The same when it comes to office programs.

I would rate Windows 10 a seven out of ten.

The stability of the product is excellent. The performance is great. There are no bugs or glitches and  don't recall it ever crashing or freezing. 

We have found the solution to be scalable. IF a company needs to expand it, it can do so. It's not a problem at all. 

In my organization, there are about 350 users that use the product.

We've contacted technical support in the past and they were good. They are helpful and responsive. I was satisfied with the level of service on offer. 

We did not previously use a different operating system. We have always used Microsoft.

I did not personally handle the initial setup and therefore cannot speak to how straightforward or difficult the process was, or how long it took.

I'm not sure how many technical team members are needed to handle deployment and maintenance tasks. 

Our IT team handled the installation process for us.

We do pay a yearly licensing fee. I cannot speak to the exact terms or costs, however. 

I'm just a customer and an end-user. I don't have a business relationship with Microsoft.

I'd rate the solution at a nine out of ten. We have enjoyed using it over the years. We are satisfied with its capabilities.
