Is used by most and is easy to install
Pros and Cons
  • "The best thing is that all are using it and that there are some applications like Power BI that are only in Windows and not in any other environment."
  • "We have a lot of different hardware that has to communicate, and sometimes, the Windows drivers get overloaded."

What is our primary use case?

I use it mainly for development and also for teaching and training.

What is most valuable?

It is easy to install and is stable as well.

What needs improvement?

We have a lot of different hardware that has to communicate, and sometimes, the Windows drivers get overloaded.

So, the performance could be better.

For how long have I used the solution?

I've been using it for about two years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

During these past two years, Windows has crashed only once on my computer.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

I use Ubuntu Linux on my own computer.

How was the initial setup?

It was easy to install Windows 10. It did take quite long, about five hours, because a lot of data had to be downloaded, and several reboots were needed.

What about the implementation team?

I installed it myself.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

I have a corporate license.

What other advice do I have?

Because it's very good, I would rate Windows 10 at nine on a scale from one to ten.

I'm using the oldest development environment for business informatics. So, for those not interested in gaming or in graphic design, especially for all business users, I strongly recommend Windows 10.
