As a Microsoft Tester, I like enabling the Microsoft Hyper-V and running the Virtual Machines for testing purposes.
I like Windows products.

Some time ago we had Windows Forms, but it did not perform well enough and Microsoft ended up terminating that area of the business.
I believe that it would be beneficial to introduce Windows Forms back into the solution to have a better experience transitioning from a desktop to a mobile version.
Currently, we are experiencing a lot of activities from hackers. People trying to break into the networks to access our data. This is an issue that is causing concern. I don't see a way of making it better or different. This became a large business for hackers.
It would be great to have a more secure interface, especially in a business environment of critical content. For example, our company has a very high level of governance and security procedures.
There are many updates on a monthly basis. I understand that is how Microsoft helps their customers to manage and be secure with regard to Cyberattacks that we may experience. From a user's perspective, it's not a good experience. From an IT perspective, I know how important those things are.
It should be something that runs more in the background where it is not seen and has less of an impact than they usually have.
When we roll out any Microsoft patch across the Network which is done every Thursday, it had not seen a few computers having issues. That's bringing us X amount of work because we need to remediate the user's issue and all those things.
If Microsoft could find a way to better manage updates and patches, that could be more useful for end users, which would be good.
From an IT perspective, I would like something similar to Splunk where it has some type of visibility, or provide the user with power, or something that we could enable. For example, if we were attacked, we could enable something or download something as a part of the Microsoft portfolio to provide us with more visibility about the threat that is floating around.
I have been working with Windows 10 since it's been on the market.
My opinion is that Windows 10 is very stable.
I have not had many opportunities to contact technical support but have a few times.
My last contact with them was regarding server versions, which involved Exchange 2013, and few other things, and also about Windows 10 support.
My experience with enterprise support was good and we didn't have any issues, but specifically with Windows 10, it's wasn't a good experience.
Microsoft should have the same level of service. I was expecting more from Microsoft.
We are also working with all Microsoft operational systems, from Windows 10 to Windows Servers, Active Directory, and Office 365.
I have worked with Windows since Windows 95 and it has changed a lot. It is very quick to deploy.
It is different when you analyze things and think in a more technical way, but even a non-technical person could install Windows from scratch with no issues.
I am currently studying for Microsoft Administrator, but I don't have hands-on experience with Key Vault.
I would recommend Windows 10 to others who are interested in using it.
The Microsoft portfolio is quite large. It is difficult to think of what Microsoft hasn't already developed so far.
I would rate Windows 10 a seven out of ten.
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.
We use Windows 10 for personal applications and for selections of networking for our clients.
It's very simple to use.
I would like to see the price reduced.
I have been using Windows 10 for approximately three years.
Windows 10 is a very stable product. We don't have any issues with the stability of this solution, now with the new patches that have been added.
As Windows 10 is an operating system, there is no need to scale it.
We use Windows 10 for both technologies, personal and for clients.
We have approximately 2,000 users in our organization who are using this solution.
We have not contacted technical support for Windows 10. We have not had the need to contact Windows technical support. We have not had any issues.
We have always been using Windows. We have been upgrading as Windows evolves. We used Windows XP, then Windows created Windows 7, 8, and now 10.
It was easy to install Windows 10. It took approximately 30 minutes to install.
We have a team of six administrators to maintain this solution.
I completed the installation myself. I did not use the help of a consultant or integrator.
They could provide better pricing for the licensing.
It's a one-time payment when you purchase the system.
I would definitely recommend this solution to others.
I would rate Windows 10 an eight out of ten.
The solution is used as an operating system for running applications, such as email, spreadsheets, file sharing, and Oracle.
Additionally, we use Windows because it is a requirement of both applications and for many businesses. Windows is at the center of the application. We use it for the POS applications that run on Navision ERP from Microsoft.
Windows 10 is easier for people to learn than other alternative solutions. Microsoft has been doing a very good job recently with updates and integrations, such as the collaboration with Ubuntu.
Windows 7 and Windows 10 are identical. However, Windows 10 is the slowest of all the variants. You need to use a solid-state drive if you are going to run Windows. Otherwise, once you install it, and give it some time it is going to slow your whole system down. Especially if you are using the internet, it is going to slow your system down fast. Additionally, it could be more secure as Windows 10 is more vulnerable to viruses.
This solution is very different from Linux where everything that you run is a process. Windows is not as fast as Linux, it is slower when you run processes, but Windows has something that attracts you to it and I think it is because of familiarity.
Microsoft monitors what you are doing. If they removed telemetry, Cortana, and other snooping tactics it would be a lot faster. The updates have to be watched because they can have some surprises related to the gathering of information.
I have been using this solution for approximately five years.
The solution is stable.
We have approximately 600 systems running Windows.
We have not used support from Microsoft.
We have previously used Windows 7, Windows Server, and Linux.
The installation is easy and is very fast.
We have a team of 20 that does the maintenance and deployment of this solution.
There is a one-time license purchase for Windows 10.
I have evaluated Windows 11.
I would prefer Linux to Microsoft. However, Microsoft is releasing Windows 11 and they have made some great advancements. We will see in the near future the new features.
I rate Windows 10 a seven out of ten.
In my organization, we have developers using mostly Mac systems, for databases we use Linux systems, and everyone else is using Windows 10 systems. We are using Windows 10 as a general operating system.
Windows 10 is user-friendly and easy to use, these are the most valuable features.
The security needs to improve.
We have been using Windows 10 for approximately nine years.
The stability of this solution depends on many variables, such as the type of usage. If you using it at a bare minimum you will not find any issues, but if you are installing multiple applications and running them at the same time you could run into some problems, such as system underperformance. However, it can depend on the hardware you have installed. You cannot specifically say how the operating system performing without having the other details about configuration and hardware, there are too many variables involved that might be unrelated to the operating system performance.
When comparing Windows 10 and Linux, Linux is more sophisticated when it comes to security and being stable, making it the ideal choice for many servers today.
We have approximately 140 people using Windows 10 systems in my organization.
We do not typically immediately reach out to contact Microsoft technical support. Most of the issues that we face can be solved online. There are quite a lot of articles and help material online where there are many people providing guidance or support for most issues that you encounter. This is not related to commercial technical support.
We have not experienced a lot of trouble with our desktop systems. We only contact technical support on the server level related to security.
We were previously using Windows 7.
The installation is straightforward. You can do it without knowing anything about the solution. However, the difficulty can also depend on the use cases. If someone wants to add features to it or maybe split the hardware's constraints it can get a little technical.
The full installation takes approximately 30 minutes.
I did the implementation of the solution.
I have evaluated Mac and Linux operating systems.
In the market, we are limited to Microsoft, Linux, or Mac. Mac is only on Apple and all their propriety products and Linux is mostly for database servers. Microsoft is a market-leading company and provides a very user-friendly environment in Windows 10 and I would recommend this solution to others.
