Easy to use with a good user interface and helpful technical support
Pros and Cons
  • "The latest UI, user interface, is very good; it helps me with being able to multitask and run various applications in tandem."
  • "The product could be more scalable."

What is our primary use case?

I primarily use the solution for running my applications. 

What is most valuable?

The latest UI, user interface, is very good.

It helps me with being able to multitask and run various applications in tandem. 

The solution is easy to use, and I tend to use it a lot. It's running all the time.

Technical support is okay.

What needs improvement?

The product could be more scalable. 

For how long have I used the solution?

I've used the solution for four or five years now. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The solution really isn't scalable.

70% to 80% of people in our organization are using Windows 10.The rest may be using Linux.

How are customer service and support?

I've dealt with technical support in the past and it is okay. I'm satisfied with the level of service we receive. 

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

We also use Linux Ubuntu in our organization. 

When it comes to installation, Ubuntu is easier, as there's only one command line of code needed for installing apps.

How was the initial setup?

My understanding is that the initial implementation is simple and straightforward. That said, it came pre-installed on my laptop and therefore I did not handle the process myself. 

What about the implementation team?

The product came to me pre-installed on my machine.

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

The solution already comes with the Windows machine. If you have a Windows device, it comes pre-installed and therefore it's included in whatever Microsoft license you have. There isn't a monthly or yearly licensing fee. 

What other advice do I have?

I'd rate the solution at a ten out of ten as I really enjoy the UI and the general usefulness of the product.

I would recommend the solution to other users and organizations. 

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

On-premises

Review about Windows 10
Pros and Cons
  • "As we are talking about Microsoft, I have encountered no problems with the installation."
  • "I consider the solution to be okay."
  • "The solution is fine by me and I make use of it, but I am not in a position to recommend it to others."

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Windows 10 for ten to twenty years. Any time one uses a PC he makes use of Windows. 

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The performance and stability are not bad. The stability seems fine by me. 

I cannot state definitively one way or the other if there is a need to improve the stability. 

How was the initial setup?

As we are talking about Microsoft, I have encountered no problems with the installation. 

What about the implementation team?

The installation can be handled on one's own. 

I am not aware of how much technical team is required for the deployment.

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

The price is not in my purview and, as such, is not an area of my concern.  

What other advice do I have?

I consider the solution to be okay. 

I do not see a need to improve the solution's security features. 

I feel the interface and dashboard are fine. I adopt it in such a way that it suits my needs. 

There are several thousand people making use of the solution in my university. 

The solution is fine by me and I make use of it, but I am not in a position to recommend it to others. I feel there is no alternative. As I am unfamiliar with Mac and Linux, I do not attempt their use. 

I rate Windows 10 as a seven out of ten.
