Windows 10 Reviews

The operating system is the heart of the laptop or the heart of your system. It is where you use all your applications. Underneath the operating system is where you have the processor. 

In order to run all of your applications, you need to use the operating system.

It provides us with very good updates and security patching that is required. It is done through the internet and gone are the days where you needed a disc for the updates.

I have been using Windows 10 for three years.

I use it on my laptop, but the upgrades are done through the cloud.

I am using the latest version.

Windows 10 is stable.

Scalability is not something that really applies to an operating system. It's not an application that is run for 10 users as an example.

We have 5,000 peoplein our organization who are using Windows 10.

I have an IT team that deals with technical support. They have a better view of what the support is like.

Microsoft is such a large corporation, I am sure they have very good technical support.

I have always used Windows 10.

The initial setup is pretty straightforward. Windows 10 is standardized. It's easy.

There really isn't any maintenance required. it's pretty easy. You need to update and run some security tests and maybe some patching, but there are pop-ups that come up to click, making it super easy.

I am not sure about the pricing. It might be $1,000 per license. The price goes down by the number of licenses.

The price could be cheaper. Not very cheap but cheaper.

I would recommend Windows 10 to anyone who wants to use this as an operating system.

I would rate Windows 10 a nine out of ten.

I don't know which version we are using. 

We don't use the solution for anything specific. 

I cannot think of any specific features which stand out to me. 

Setup and use between multiple monitors should be easier. 

I don't know exactly how long I have been using Windows 10, likely a couple of years. 

I have found no bugs or glitches in the solution.

While I cannot say for sure, it seems that the scalability has been okay thus far. 

I am not aware of any use having been made of technical support. 

I was not involved in the setup. This was already handled by my IT department

I don't know how much we paid for the solution. 

I have no idea how many are using the solution in our organization, although I assume this would include everybody, meaning 1,200 or 1,500 people. 

I have no specific advice to offer. 

I rate Windows 10 as a nine out of ten.

We mainly use the solution in the cloud for discovering all of its applications. We also use it for identification purposes and either to block access or unauthenticate updated applications.

The solution is easy to use.

It serves many functions. User accounts can be identified in Windows 10. It offers performance and functionality. Sensitive data which is deployed in one's application can be set in his policy. 

In contrast to Windows 11, the 10 version could have improved functionality. 

The solution derails the battery too quickly, meaning the performance could be better. 

The space utilization is not sufficient and there are too many notifications for the user. 

We have been using Windows 10 for three or four years. 

The solution is scalable. It can be applied to as many PCs as one likes. 

One of the good things about Microsoft is that the support is there, although the time it takes to respond and to resolve the issue could be improved upon. 

The good thing about Windows 10 is that it's from Microsoft. I have also used iOS, which is from Apple, as well as Android, from Samsung. So too, I have used macOS Sierra, like MacBook OS, in addition to Ubuntu. 

The installation lasts a couple of hours, so it would be better if this could be accomplished within a few minutes. 

It is possible to do deployment and maintenance with the use of system administrators. 

The solution comes with a licensing fee. 

Windows 10 is deployed on one's PC. 

As the solution is from Microsoft, I would definitely recommend its use. 

Our organization has more than 100 users who are making use of the solution.

As Windows 10 is from Microsoft, I rate it as a nine-point-five out of ten. 

We primarily use the solution for running our applications.

For basic use, the solution is very stable and the performance is good.

It's a product that is easy to use.

The initial setup is pretty simple. 

While the stability is okay, it could always be better.

The product needs to be able to scale a bit more effectively.

I've been using the solution for a couple of years. 

The product is very stable. It doesn't crash or freeze. There are no bugs or glitches. It's reliable and the performance is good.

The scalability needs to be better.

I'm not sure how many people are using the solution in our organization at this time. It's somewhere between a hundred and a thousand. 

I've been in touch with technical support and find them to be decent. I have no complaints. 

The installation process is very straightforward. It's not difficult or complex. It's very easy.

I've done a few deployments at this point. I'm pretty comfortable with the process. 

I cannot recall how long the deployment takes, however. 

I do not pay for a full license.

I'd rate the solution at a seven out of ten. It's good for basic use.

I'm more of a Mac user and therefore don't really prefer Windows 10, although it's not a bad product.

We primarily use the solution for document processing and the database for using Excel. In my case, I use a lot of Excel and Microsoft Word. I tend to stick to Office applications and Microsoft applications only.

We are upgrading the physical RAM in order to use the open drive. 

We've been familiarizing ourselves with the features.

The initial setup was quite straightforward. 

The solution has been very stable. 

You can easily find answers to any questions you have online. 

I haven't extensively explored all of the features and aspects of the solution.

The time it takes to initially install the solution could be a bit less. Right now, it takes a few hours. We'd like it to be faster. 

I've been using the solution for three years at this point. It's been a while. 

The solution is now quite stable. At the beginning, we are facing some problems, however, nowadays, after all of these software patches and security patches, it's quite stabilized. There are no more issues. Its performance is very reliable. 

I consider myself an average user and therefore have never attempted to scale the product. I'm not sure how it would go. I have never tried. 

I've never reached out to technical support directly. Usually, if I run into issues, I Google answers and troubleshoot by myself. Therefore, I can't speak to how helpful or responsive they would be. 

We updated from a previous Windows version - either Windows 7 or 8. 

The initial setup was very straightforward and simple. It's not overly complex or difficult. 

The installation process took a few hours, as we were upgrading from an old Windows version to Windows 10. 

I have handled all aspects of the implementation myself. By myself, I have handled the upgrading, auto-upgrading, downloading, and installation by myself. I did not need the help of an integrator or consultant. 

The software and hardware tend to get bundled together in the final price. I can't speak to the exact pricing, as it's not an aspect of the product I deal with. 

We have the solution deployed to our desktops and laptops. 

I'm simply a regular user. I don't have a business relationship with Microsoft.

I would recommend the solution to other users and organizations. 

I'd rate the product at an eight out of ten. We've been happy with it so far, however, it's not a perfect product.

We use the solution solely on desktops, for running personal applications.

I do not use the solution out of any particular preference. It is simply that my company utilizes it and I must follow suit. 

Certain aspects of the solution are really complicated and should be simplified. I am referring to features we utilize daily, such as those used for finding things and Internet Explorer. 

MS Office or Internet Explorer has a big ribbon on top. While it may be useful, it occupies a lot of screen space. My laptop contains a very small screen of just 13 inches, which is full HD, meaning that the forms already appear very small. As the ribbon occupies some of this needed space, reducing it would free up that which is on the screen. 

We have been using Windows 10 for the last three years.

When it comes to technical support, I generally have to reach out to my local IT guys.

Before using the solution, we made use of Windows 7.

There was no installation necessary. 

We don't spend anything for the license. I prefer the full license, not the one for cloud. 

The solution is used on my personal laptop. I use Windows 10. I don't run tests on my own. I do everything on my office infrastructure. For the data and middleware I get support in my office. 

The solution is easy to use.  

Everyone in my organization uses Windows 10, although I cannot disclose the exact number of users.

I feel compelled to recommend the solution to others, as there are no available alternatives when it comes to desktops.

For desktop usage, I rate Windows 10 as an eight out of ten. 

The solution runs on some of my laptops and I personally have it on my own devices. 

What I like about Windows 10 is that it's a very intelligent OS. The interface is great. It's stable. 

I love the interface. It's very smart. The customization capabilities and all the advantages of Windows 10 are great. 

You have a lot of third-party software for the Windows environment. 

I have to use it for work, however, it's also a good choice for me as well to use it in my private time. 

Every new version is always an improvement on the last.

The initial setup is very straightforward. 

On a MacBook, in macOS, whatever application you have opened or are using, whether it's Apple or third-party or part of the OS or not, it doesn't matter, at any point you can always zoom in on the screen by just simply pushing a button and rotating the mouse scroll wheel for example, at any time. It's very smooth and fast zooming capabilities. You can zoom in very a lot or zoom in limited, whatever you need, at any part of the screen. I love that feature.

However, in Windows 10, the magnifier is really bad in comparison to the macOS zooming feature. I don't exactly remember what Apple calls it, however, the Windows magnifier is really bad. I tried also some third-party zooming tools and software for Windows, which were also really bad. This is something I really miss in Windows. In Windows, the magnifier really isn't that great.

I've basically used the solution since it was released. 

The solution is quite stable. there are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. It's reliable. 

I don't use technical support. It's my understanding that many private users don't. therefore, I can't really speak to how helpful or responsive they are. 

The initial setup is quite straightforward. A company shouldn't have any issues with the process. 

I work as a consultant for companies and it depends on the client. So sometimes I work in large environments, sometimes medium, sometimes small environments.

I'd recommend the solution to other users and companies. 

I'd rate the solution at a nine out of ten. I've been very happy with its capabilities.

I primarily use the solution for connecting to my remote machine, to the VPN, to my work network. That's the main purpose. I also use it for applications such as Microsoft Word or for accessing YouTube and items of that nature. 

The UI of the solution has not changed drastically over the years, and therefore, it's easy to get used to the solution if you've used earlier versions of Windows. It's user-friendly in that sense. 

Online technical support is helpful. There's a lot of documentation.

I notice a lot of latency in Windows 10. Sometimes it slows down things. If I use a virtualized environment and if I run Windows 10, it's definitely slow, even on my personal computer, if it is not SSD. The performance could be much better.

Built into the solution is Windows Defender, which is in all the recent versions of the Windows operating system, however, we still end up buying an extra antivirus product in the market to ensure we are secure. Windows Defender should be enhanced and compete with the market with other antivirus products so that it comes as part of the operating system and actually offers very good protection.

Native apps such as, for example, Windows Notepad, which is a basic feature provided by Windows over the last 24 years, have had no enhancement at all. If you try to play around with some data or put it in a Notepad note, it still is quite difficult to use. You need to pay for Notepad++ or some TextPad, or some other application tool to get some actual usability.

I've been using the solution for a couple of years at this point. It's been a while. 

The performance needs improvement. It can be a bit slow. It takes time to render things. In comparison, Mac renders items very quickly.

I've used online tech support in the past. It depends on the case. In a few cases, it is informative and in a few cases, it is not. What I notice is that if I am using Windows, from Windows 95 onwards, if I recollect it correctly. As an end-user, there isn't too much of a drastic change in how it works, and as I've used it for 24 years or so, I have every good understanding of the product. 

I started using Windows since Windows 95. Before that, I likely used DOS. 

I was not a part of the installation process. I got the hardware with the Windows 10 already installed on it. Therefore, I can't speak to the process or how long it takes to deploy.

My understanding is that the license was paid for upfront with the laptop. I can't speak to the exact cost as I just have it on my laptop, and it came already installed and ready to go.

I did not evaluate other options before choosing this product.

I'm a customer and an end-user.

I'd rate the solution at a seven out of ten. It's an okay product, however, there are areas for improvement, specifically if you look at the performance. 

That said, I would recommend the solution to other users.
