Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Windows

We deployed Microsoft Windows to all our devices, laptops desktop and servers. The main business problem we solved is you need a device to do your work. Working without a device is almost impossible. So every employee uses a Windows laptop or desktop. Almost of application is webbased and almost always build for a Microsoft Windows device. Also to integrate Microsoft Windows we use other servers Microsoft services like Azure. Because Microsoft Windows is great to manage and use to use and widely used as a standard.

Pros

  • It's User friendly and easy to use
  • Its always up to date and well taken care of by Microsoft
  • Standard applications like Office 365 are well used by our users
  • As a system engineer its easy to manage

Cons

  • More video's of how to use the Office 365 suite like Excel, Word and Sharepoint
  • integrate Co-pilot needless with Microsoft Windows to help its users
  • Integrate other mobile devices that are not Microsoft with Microsoft Windows
  • Increase in productivity, Windows is user friendly and easy to use. A lot of users have used it before so they need no extra training
  • The use of free application like Excel Word ect. Are cost reducing because you don’t have to buy third party software
  • To have a good function Windows environment you have to buy Azure and al that’s coming with it. Like Cloud engineers IT partners that do your managing of the servers.
Me personally I can find every setting blindly. As a IT engineer I can easily tell other colleagues where to find certain settings and help them with their problem. Windows is well put together for us engineers to fix problems easily. About Microsoft Windows itself, I rarely get questions about the system itself. Because its user friendly almost every setting etc. is self-explanatory.
We selected Microsoft Windows because of the user friendly nature of it and a big factor is that other user never used macOS or Ubuntu so the productivity will decrease a lot because you have to explain a whole new OS. I always only recommend macOS or Ubuntu if you are a graphic designer of a developer. But for the day to day office work Microsoft Windows is the way to go.

Do you think Microsoft Windows delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Microsoft Windows's feature set?

Yes

Did Microsoft Windows live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Microsoft Windows go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Microsoft Windows again?

Yes

I think for every business in the world Microsoft Windows is a good use as standard OS system. It’s easy to use and a lot of other company's use it which make it very appealing for user to learn more about Microsoft Windows. The Office 365 suite is really good as a free feature and used a lot by every user of Microsoft Windows. If you got a designer business I would recommend other brands that are specialized in that kind of work. I feel Windows will come short on that end.
