Even though the end-of-service (EOS) date for Windows 7 was January 14, 2020, it is reported that 28 percent of all Windows PCs are still running Windows 7. You’d think that, with the extensive advanced warning, organizations would have migrated from Windows 7 a while ago to avoid the steep cost of the Microsoft Extended Security Updates (ESUs). So what’s holding people back from migrating?
Naren Narendra, Microsoft’s Global Sales Lead for Windows Virtual Desktops, has said that the number one impediment preventing people from moving to Windows 10 is application compatibility. Which is why we announced today that we’ve partnered with Softwatch to launch a new program that offers organizations an application compatibility checklist, as well as an assessment of their environment, to help ease the transition.
Our Windows 7 Application Migration Program provides organizations the resources needed to develop a firm plan of action for their Windows 7 migration. Regardless of what mix of platforms a company is considering migrating to – Windows 10, Windows Virtual Desktop (WVD), Chrome, MacOS, or Linux – the Windows 7 Application Migration Program provides the following tools to make the migration simple:
- Windows 7 Application Compatibility Checklist – A simple 9-point checklist to help navigate and identify the core issues an organization needs to consider to properly prepare for a migration. Download the Application Compatibility Checklist now.
