Windows 10 Reviews

I'm using Windows 10 on my company laptop.

Windows 10 is a pretty standard platform.

Windows 10 is a typical Microsoft operating system. Sometimes it doesn't work, and it constantly needs fixing in terms of upgrades, patches, etc. It does its job, but it can be unpredictable.

I've been using Windows 10 since it was first released.

I had a big problem with Microsoft support.

I rate Windows 10 seven out of 10. 

I am using Windows 10 for running applications.

Windows 10 is very easy to use.

I have been using Windows 10 since it was released.

The solution could be more stable.

I have used Ubuntu Linux and all the Windows operating systems from Windows 3.1 to Windows 10.

The installation is straightforward.

I would recommend this solution to others because it is very to use.

I rate Windows 10 seven out of ten.

We are using this operating system for all of the functionality on offer. We have different machines on which we are using Eggplant to perform the functional testing. All those machines are currently on Windows 10 only since users have been using Windows 10 already, and it's quite user-friendly. 

In all the cases where machines are present, we are performing the test over Windows 10 and using this Eggplant with all the different types of applications for the functionality users. Based on those tests, we are capturing data.

In the previous versions, you could get a copy of data or pirated data also, however, with Windows 10, as it is genuine software, it helped us a lot in avoiding this. It also has added security features and auto-updates. The upgrading of the software is very easy now.

The product is quite user-friendly and easy to navigate.

The GUI is quite impressive. We don't need to go into any command-line interface. Most of the things you can use with the click of a mouse. 

The initial setup is very easy.

Sometimes we getting slowness issues while performing some heavy operations. We aren't multitasking or anything, however, some heavy load is there. In those times, Windows 10 is not responding as we would like it to. They need to improve this.

As of now, I haven't seen many ain points per see. However, whether we're upgrading the software or clearing the cache, it would help us if the solution was more responsive.

The security could be improved. I have had colleagues who have gotten their files corrupted somehow.

I've been using the solution for maybe three or four years.

It's quite stable and is easy to work with as you don't need very special skills. 

As of now, I haven't had any downtime or any blockage due to the software or OS. Of course, the slowness issue sometimes stops us a lot. The upgrades can be frustrating as they sometimes start an update when we are working. If it's between the working times, it's not a problem.

It is quite easy to integrate add-on solutions and we've found that the scalability is fine in Windows 10. You don't have to do anything extra in that we can install easily, and we can use the software easily wherever it's required.

Within my team, my project, all of us are using Windows 10 since the project itself is dependent on Windows 10. We have around 10 people on our project. We are senior consultants, test engineers, test analysts, project managers, and test analysts.

We haven't reached out to technical support. Right now, things are running smoothly and therefore there's no reason to be in touch. Therefore, I can't speak to how helpful or responsive they are. 

Previously, we may have been using Windows 7. We haven't used a different operating system. It's always been Microsoft.

The initial setup is very straightforward. It's not a complex process at all.

We have an in-built, permanent license. I can't speak to how much it costs our company.

I'm just a customer and an end-user.

I would recommend this solution. It's not ideal for very heavy projects, however, for moderate or medium-type of projects that do not have a very heavy load or too much multitasking, Windows 10 is excellent.

Windows 10 makes for pretty comfortable working. It doesn't need users to be experienced in anything. If you want to start a new thing with Windows 10 OS, you don't need to worry about that. You can get into it easily. You don't need to have knowledge of any specific things so that you can catch up with the solution and how to use it easily.

I'd rate the solution at an eight out of ten.

We use Windows 10 for our personal operating system on all of our desktops, laptops, and our tablets.

The main issue is related to the patch security management that is released. The updates take a lot of time to complete, and they could be faster.

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

Windows 10 is stable.

We have approximately 150 users in our organization.

The technical support is fine. They have the help support and you can Google it to get your support.

We have only used Windows. All versions of Windows have been used such as Windows 95, Windows XP, Windows 2000, and Windows 7.

The installation is straightforward. It's a guided installation that anyone can do.

We need a team of two or three people to maintain this solution.

We were able to complete the installation ourselves.

The pricing is expensive. When compared with other Operating Systems, such as Linux-based solutions, it's expensive.

When we purchase any computer, we purchase the software, the operating system, and the hardware. 

It is bundled, but if you purchase it individually it's expensive.

The price could be improved.

I would recommend this solution to others.

From an operating system perspective, I would rate Windows 10 a seven out of 10.

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 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.

I rate Windows 10 a nine out of ten.

I use it mainly as the operating system for my tech development work. I'm running some kind of research studio and a database on this.

I like how Windows 10 is quite stable. 

It would be better if there were more integration with Linux and Azure.

I have been using Windows 10 for several years. I got it when it first came out.

I've been in business since 1980, so I have used many operating systems like Sun. That's what it was called before Oracle bought them.

The initial setup is straightforward, but it takes some time to download and implement this solution.

I don't pay for my personal use. However, my company certainly has some licenses, but I'm not aware of what they pay for them.

I would recommend this solution to new users.

On a scale from one to ten, I would give Windows 10 a nine.
