Windows 11 Reviews

I use Windows 11 in the government organization, specifically in the IT department. We use Windows 10 and 11 mainly for office tasks.

Windows 11 is very user-friendly and has improved user interactivity compared to Windows 10. It has good security features, providing strong protection against platform viruses and vulnerabilities, which secures my resources. Online support is also helpful. Furthermore, the arrangement and structure of the system are easy to navigate.

Configuring network connectivity and sharing printers and scanners in Windows 11 can be a bit more challenging compared to Windows 10. Accessing the network settings takes more time and can be cumbersome.

I have been working with Windows 11 for approximately two years.

I rate the stability of Windows 11 as seven out of ten. The stability can be influenced by the status and specifications of our company PCs.

Our company PCs are quite old, and many don't have the resources or specifications to support Windows 11. Therefore, scalability is limited primarily due to hardware constraints.

We primarily use Windows 10, and I prefer it to Windows 11 mainly due to our hardware limitations.

The initial setup of Windows 11 is easy. On a scale from one to ten, I would rate the setup experience a nine.

We use a cracked version of Windows, so there are no licensing costs.

I recommend ensuring that your PC hardware, such as the hard disk and RAM, is advanced and sufficient to support Windows 11 before installation. I rate Windows 11 an eight out of ten overall.

I use Windows 11 on my laptop to use Outlook or Microsoft applications.

Windows 11 is quite expensive compared to other products. Microsoft Windows 11 has to improve compared to Mac OS, which is very stable and GUI-based.

I have been using Windows 11 for more than four years.

I rate the solution an eight out of ten for stability.

Windows 11 is a scalable solution.

Microsoft's technical support team has responded quickly and resolved our issues.

The initial setup of the solution is very easy, and anybody can do it.

Setting up the product is very easy. You need to have the OS image or CD. I believe most laptops have Windows preloaded on them. You have to start with that image, and then it'll ask for basic information, such as language, storage information, and other preferences.

Windows 11 is a very user-friendly solution. Anyone can get used to the tool and easily install any application. Microsoft support is really good. Windows 11 is more stable compared to its earlier versions.

We need to make a one-time payment for Windows 11.

On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a nine out of ten.

Since Windows 11 is the latest version, you get support from vendors and regular OS updates. I would recommend the solution to other users because it is a good solution for people looking to use it for personal use.

Overall, I rate the solution an eight to nine out of ten.

When we started using Windows 11 on our notebooks and desktops, we had no problems with the tools our users needed, so overall, it was a good transition for us. Most users in our company use Windows 11 for office work, mostly from home a couple of days a week. They mainly use it to manage information with Excel and Word, save files in the cloud, and access corporate activities via VPN.

The tool's most valuable feature is its stability. When we planned the migration, about 70 percent of it was done remotely. We encountered some incidents, which were resolved quickly. 

The product needs options for personalization and self-development. AI functions are also another area where improvement can be made. We're starting to use these features, but there's room for further development and integration.

I have been using the product since June 2023. 

We have a Microsoft partner in Brazil who handles local support. However, for issues that require level three or level four support, they initiate a process with Microsoft to address the problem. I need to follow up on this process.

Positive

I rate the tool's deployment an eight out of ten. It took six months to complete. The first step was to analyze and classify the users based on their needs and priorities. We categorized users into high, medium, or low priority based on their requirements. For example, users managing industrial information or accessing critical systems for IoT were given special attention.

I'm not directly involved in the financial aspects, but based on feedback from colleagues, Microsoft is flexible with pricing and addressing other licensing needs.

I rate the overall product a ten out of ten. I began my career using Linux many years ago. In Brazil, I witnessed the evolution of Windows, starting with Windows 3.1, then Windows Workgroup, and later Windows Server. Microsoft introduced Outlook, marking a successful journey for the company. Their support has been instrumental in the standardization and development of tools.

In our daily operations, we primarily use the operating system from the client side. When it comes to hardware, we always opt for the latest version. Restarting Windows and Office also opens new possibilities, advancements, and stability for our systems. The built-in antivirus from Microsoft is also good, eliminating the need to purchase additional antivirus software.

The tool's integrated antivirus program, Microsoft Defender, is enough for my purpose. 

Windows 11 needs to improve its pricing. 

I have been using the product for two years. 

I rate Windows 11's stability a ten out of ten. 

I rate the tool's scalability a ten out of ten. My company has five to six users. 

From my experience, I've never needed to use the Microsoft support team. As long as your hardware is compatible with Windows 11, there are usually no issues. However, you may need to find solutions if you encounter problems with older hardware. However, everything should work perfectly if you have new hardware that matches the Windows 11 requirements.

The tool's deployment is easy and takes only 15-20 minutes. The setup process is really easy. You provide basic information like your PC's name, date, and details. There's no need to search or think too much. Everything is straightforward. Even if you're not experienced, you can easily install it. You can adjust settings like time zones easily, too.

I rate the tool's pricing an eight to nine out of ten. 

It's crucial to ensure compatibility when considering hardware, especially with drivers signed specifically for Windows 11. Having hardware that is compatible with the operating system eliminates potential issues. This approach is straightforward and without any compatibility issues. While older systems may not be compatible, matching the hardware with the Windows 11 operating system for daily or business use is highly recommended.

I rate the product a ten out of ten. It is the most accurate and stable system that I have ever seen. I wouldn't advise others who want to start using Windows 11 to stick with older hardware. It's essential to have hardware that meets the minimum requirements for Windows 11. Otherwise, you may encounter issues with updates and new features. I recommend using new hardware for Windows 11 because it offers the best integration with the software and operating system.

The value lies in having a robust and capable operating system for everyday tasks, whether fieldwork or any other type of usage. In that sense, Windows 11 is a highly valuable, powerful, and familiar operating system.

Windows 11 is more user-friendly in terms of GUI (Graphical User Interface) and offers a wide range of settings and preferences. It's great for configuration in both cloud and on-premise environments. The integration with other systems is good, especially for network analytics and configuration. 

It also provides features for troubleshooting and encryption of the disk. Overall, it offers a comprehensive overview of daily workflows and network services.

One of the most valuable features of Windows 11 is its ability to provide detailed statistics about the laptop's performance, including battery usage, CPU performance, and network performance. These statistics are useful for IT professionals to analyze and plan for the laptop's future needs.

In terms of improvement, I have noticed some latency issues when loading large Excel or Word files. I'm not sure if it's a network or software issue, but it would be great if they could address that. 

Additionally, in terms of security, implementing easier remote access to laptops and providing more mature patching options would be beneficial. Overall, there is room for improvement in these areas.

It should also give complete support for already tested versions. 

I have some experience in configuring it.

Windows 11 has been stable for us, especially when using basic applications like Microsoft Office. Perfomance-wise, it is doing a good job.

I would rate the stability a nine out of ten. Technically, Windows 11 does the job. And there haven't been any major changes. Technically, setting up an IP address and putting it in the network is straightforward. 

As for managers and staff, it's almost the same in my environment. They have the privilege to read and execute solutions, but there haven't been any major improvements or changes in 50% of Windows 11.

I would rate the scalability an eight out of ten. It has room for improvement. Maybe they can focus more on sizing and screen protection, like glare protection for screens for professional laptops.

Around 80 users are using Windows 11 in our organization. Even the laptops come with Windows 11, and with the current economy, it's affordable for us to buy laptops with Windows 11.

I used the support for Windows 10, and overall, I can give them a good rating for Microsoft Windows support. They are very quick and knowledgeable about their product. They give you peace of mind when they troubleshoot all the minor things we are unable to do. 

Positive

The setup process for Windows 11 is quite straightforward, especially in a work environment. Joining a domain and connecting to an Azure network is very simple these days. The configuration policies are similar to previous versions, making it easy to implement them on laptops.

We handled the deployment in-house. There was no need for external consultants or integrators.

The deployment process for configuring Windows 11 is quite simple. When you start the setup, it guides you through the process, whether you want to use it as an online or on-premise user. You enter your username and password and check the configurations. 

If you have Intune in your environment, you can configure your laptop's settings and applications through Azure. It's a straightforward process that requires basic information and credentials.

For the return on investment, suppose we buy a laptop at this price and use it for five years. Then, the ROI is around 30% to 40%.

License-wise, when you buy a laptop with Windows 11, it comes with the license integrated into the board itself. So I don't need to buy any additional licenses. I only buy laptops with Windows 11 licenses integrated.

To start using Windows 11, you can go ahead. It's a good product with stable performance. It's very easy to use, and the graphical user interface (GUI) is user-friendly. You don't need specific technical knowledge. 

Everything is easily accessible for control and simple configuration. They also have an audit log, which is very useful for IT users to track events on the laptop. It's easier, and they provide solutions to resolve any problems. 

Overall, I would rate it a nine out of ten. It has room for improvement, but overall, it's a good investment.

The most valuable feature is animation. It is a good solution in terms of performance.

When I checked in Windows 11, compared to Windows 10 to 11, it is very high performance. I see the massive differences in Windows 11.

The convenience I got in Windows 10, like different editions, I can't find in Windows 11. Security patching is also higher in Windows 11, but many people look for patching software, but it's not easy to implement in Windows 11.

When I was using Winsel, a tool for the existing purpose, and completing the purpose of that is to complete the file, it would show an error and ask me to purchase the product. But now, instead of giving the product, we have a patch to loop the tool. This happened via dot key dot shared and dot bat solutions. So, that kind of convenience has not been provided in Windows 11.

There are other areas of improvement. I can feel a bit lagging in some of the applications, like Adobe applications. So those need to be fixed.

Additionally, as a core developer, we often require tools like Visual Studio. We, particularly, need some add-on tools we need to use. So, if possible, it will be re-implemented or de-implemented via Windows 11, which will be very helpful too. Like, one kind of, say, PLAMEX or one kind of say, a tool where we can run at least a set of courses in one place without installing any add-on software.

One more thing to mention is the TDM software. It requires compatible hardware to install Windows 11, and that can be a drawback. For instance, my old laptop doesn't support it, and I had to purchase a new one. This can be challenging, especially for students.

I've been using Windows 11 for four to five months. I have not updated it yet, so I don't use the latest version.

I would rate the stability an eight out of ten.

I would rate the scalability a seven out of ten. 

It wasn't deployed manually. We used the inbuilt version.

The price is quite high, especially in India. It's a significant investment.

I would advise you to consider Windows 11 due to the ongoing updates. But the supportable key is the worst part, which Microsoft has introduced. So that is the only thing I'm a bit disappointed about. So if anyone wants to get a new laptop, they need to go for the new generation, which costs around one or two lakhs in Indian currency. That's very costly for students who are still in the learning stage.

Overall, I would rate the solution a five out of ten. 

The solution's most valuable feature stems from the fact that it has been a huge product for Australia's air traffic control system for many years. People use the tool for huge projects.

Improvements are required in the area of integration and the quality offered because my company has a lot of pressure from our customers that some updates be released every few months.

My problem with Windows 11 stems from the fact that I have to update it every other day. Every week I have to take care of the upgrades and the patches associated with the product. From an improvement perspective, the frequency of updates should be lesser.

I have been using Windows 11 for many years.

Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten. With the tool, we are able to control airplane traffic.

In terms of scalability, I would say that the product has the ability to control Australia's air traffic, so the system is used to control the whole site and the air traffic in every city.

At my site, I can say that there are around 500 users of the solution.

For deployment, my company just puts everything into IPAM and uses Ansible script for downloading and deployment. My company uses the cloud services offered by Azure to deploy some systems on the cloud so the customer can divide the systems in the cloud so that they can access the systems from the local cloud.

For now, my company uses Ansible during the product's deployment phase.

When there is a new release of the product, it takes us one week to fully deploy it. Windows 11 is a huge product.

My company handles huge projects and involves many people from multiple countries. My area of work is to accept all the component changes every day. I also deal with areas like integration and current trends and provide the latest updates to everyone in my company.

My company has a separate team to handle the area of security because we work for the government and military, so the security level needs to be very high.

I recommend the tool to others because it provides most of the functions for many users and is also very friendly. Developers mostly like Linux, and they like it more than Windows because it's very clean and offers good user control. With Windows, sometimes the tool gets corrupted.

In terms of benefits, my company uses a lot of Windows-based applications like Outlook, Word, Excel, and emails for normal communication purposes because almost everyone knows how to use Windows, which provides ease of communication.

The artificial intelligence capabilities of the product have supported my organization.

Since last year, I have used OpenAI assets to improve my development efficiency by 100 percent. Windows 11 is a very good tool, and now, a lot of developers are opening up to OpenAI. You can also choose the language in seconds.

I rate the tool an eight out of ten.

I frequently use extensive virtualization, managing multiple virtual machines for various tasks. Security is a top priority for me, and it hinges on two critical factors. Firstly, security software's effectiveness in detecting and responding to potential threats. Secondly, the underlying Windows system's reliability relies on regular updates from Microsoft. These updates, often in the form of security patches, play a crucial role in addressing vulnerabilities and ensuring the overall security of the Windows environment.

The use of TPM 2.0 is appreciated for its role in encrypting communication between the processor and RAM. Despite not being a prominent feature, this encryption is crucial for preventing potential attacks from penetration testers and hackers. By securing this connection, it significantly reduces the risk of a fundamental system breach. Even if a new operating system is installed, the underlying security remains intact, highlighting TPM as an essential security measure.

The most valuable aspect is the seamless integration and robust compatibility of other tools. The standout feature, known as the Linux App System Forwarded, enables the use of Linux commands within the Windows environment. Previously, I had to install specific Linux distributions to achieve similar functionality. Now, I can effortlessly enjoy both Windows and Linux simultaneously, making it a highly beneficial feature.

A significant drawback is its cost for the hardware requirements that is important for optimal performance which makes it less accessible and potentially impractical for many users globally. One notable additional feature is Windows Defender, an antivirus software by Microsoft. While it may not compete with other antivirus programs in terms of recognition, it serves its purpose effectively for many users. There's room for improvement, especially in the firewall aspect. Enhancements in the firewall's capabilities would elevate the overall security of the system.

I have been working with it for a year now.

It provides excellent stability capabilities. I would rate it nine out of ten.

It doesn't follow a scalable model; instead, it leans more towards specific hardware requirements. Currently, acquiring new hardware can be quite costly. At the moment, we have a total of forty PCs.

I recall having a few instances where I needed technical support, and I must say, the assistance provided was truly impressive.

Positive

I used a different solution, but I switched to Windows 11 because  security holds paramount importance for me, and any new acquisition in this regard always receives significant attention. The focus is primarily on refining and resolving issues to ensure effective protection services.

The initial setup was quite easy. I would rate it eight out of ten.

The deployment on hardware typically takes a total of twenty to thirty minutes. Typically, I navigate to Google and use the Media Creation Tool for Windows 11, enabling me to download the trial version. Subsequently, I installed it on a USB drive and connected it to the PC. Booting from the USB drive makes the process straightforward - I select the destination and network EFI system, then follow the steps. It requires no maintenance.

We accomplished a ninety percent of ROI.

The pricing is affordable. There are no additional add-ons or extra payments – just one initial price, providing everything needed.

I evaluated FEMCO, however, despite its user-friendly interface, not everyone is acquainted with the vendor. Windows, being the most popular choice, aligns well with my preferences.

I would recommend ensuring the acquisition of proper hardware. Some unofficial sources or tweaks may claim compatibility, but it's crucial to rely on reputable ones for optimal performance on a PC and to fully leverage its capabilities. Understanding the cost and having a well-thought-out migration plan is also vital when contemplating a new operating system. Overall, I would rate it eight out of ten.
