Many employees are familiar with an older OS like Windows 7, and you may have concerns about migration issues, or still see utility in your existing devices. But as of January 2020, Microsoft will no longer support Windows 7. Which means no more security updates, hot-fixes, or any free or paid assisted support services—leaving your old devices vulnerable to data breaches and content piracy.
Migrating is easier than you may think. New devices with Windows 10 Pro unlock significant productivity benefits for media and entertainment organizations, the OS is intuitive for users familiar with Windows 7 or 8, and it is compatible with 99% of Windows 7 apps.
