HERE’S WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW FOR A POST-WINDOWS 7 WORLD

While it was sad to see Windows 7 ride off into the sunset, the time had come to embrace Windows 10. As your organisation prepares for migration, here’s what you need to know – TechTonic IT previosuly sent an informational email about this matter to all our IT Client Liaisons – if your company isn’t onboard then you need to get in touch.

Introduced in 2009, Windows 7 currently sits on almost 70% of all business computers - even now, but has arrived and departed its final destination. Microsoft has cut ties with the popular Operating System – along with all major Internet security vendors – and now concentrate solely on Windows 10.

 

PREPARING FOR THE MOVE TO WINDOWS 10

For some companies Windows 7 has become so ingrained in their operations that migrating from one system to another means a massive leap into the unknown. Here’s a list of next steps to help with planning – don’t worry, we can help you with these:

  1. Run a thorough security network assessment
  2. Ensure that business-critical changes are prioritised
  3. Identify machines that will need to be upgraded or replaced
  4. Identify legacy processes that use older software
  5. Develop a realistic budget for upgrades and replacements
  6. Develop a timeline to make changes with minimal disruption to your business
  7. Introduce new devices progressively
  8. Plan employee training for new processes and systems

 

CREATE AN EXIT STRATEGY

Switching from your trusted Windows 7 PC and moving to Windows 10 doesn’t have to be a headache. TechTonic IT has performed these kinds of upgrades countless times over the years so we know all the ins and outs.

The situation is a lamentable fact, but it is up to you to be well prepared. Get in touch and we will be glad to offer you peace of mind with a completely FREE Security Network Assessment and subsequent plan to move forward.
