Windows 10 Reviews

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 our operating system which has lots of applications that are integrated that we use. Windows 10 is our client's operating system and Windows Server is our server-providing system.

The solution is easy to use and user-friendly.

The solution could improve by adding more dashboards.

I have been using Windows 10 for approximately eight months.

The solution is stable.

I have found the solution to be scalable.

We have 150 systems using this solution.

We use Windows Server.

The installation is easy and took approximately 30 minutes.

I did the implementation of the solution.

The solution is not expensive and there is a license required.

This is a renowned operating system from Microsoft, it is the most widely used operating system in the world. Windows 10 is excellent.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate Windows 10 a ten out of ten.

I use Windows 10 to run applications.

The solution is easy to use compared to other solutions, such as Mac OS. I am very familiar with Windows 10 since I have been using Windows since I was very young. It is always evolving to meet make new standards. 

Windows 10 could improve by being more user-friendly and provide a screen mirroring feature for the ability to share the screen with mobile devices without having to purchase a third-party application. With Mac OS it is able to be done right away.

I have been using the solution for approximately two years.

I have found Windows 10 highly stable.

The solution is scalable.

I have previously used other Windows versions.

The solution was installed when I purchased the computer.

The license came with the computer when I purchased it.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate Windows 10 a nine out of ten.

I use it mainly for development and also for teaching and training.

The best thing is that all are using it and that there are some applications like Power BI that are only in Windows and not in any other environment.

It is easy to install and is stable as well.

We have a lot of different hardware that has to communicate, and sometimes, the Windows drivers get overloaded.

So, the performance could be better.

I've been using it for about two years.

During these past two years, Windows has crashed only once on my computer.

I use Ubuntu Linux on my own computer.

It was easy to install Windows 10. It did take quite long, about five hours, because a lot of data had to be downloaded, and several reboots were needed.

I installed it myself.

I have a corporate license.

Because it's very good, I would rate Windows 10 at nine on a scale from one to ten.

I'm using the oldest development environment for business informatics. So, for those not interested in gaming or in graphic design, especially for all business users, I strongly recommend Windows 10.

The solution runs on some of my laptops and I personally have it on my own devices. 

What I like about Windows 10 is that it's a very intelligent OS. The interface is great. It's stable. 

I love the interface. It's very smart. The customization capabilities and all the advantages of Windows 10 are great. 

You have a lot of third-party software for the Windows environment. 

I have to use it for work, however, it's also a good choice for me as well to use it in my private time. 

Every new version is always an improvement on the last.

The initial setup is very straightforward. 

On a MacBook, in macOS, whatever application you have opened or are using, whether it's Apple or third-party or part of the OS or not, it doesn't matter, at any point you can always zoom in on the screen by just simply pushing a button and rotating the mouse scroll wheel for example, at any time. It's very smooth and fast zooming capabilities. You can zoom in very a lot or zoom in limited, whatever you need, at any part of the screen. I love that feature.

However, in Windows 10, the magnifier is really bad in comparison to the macOS zooming feature. I don't exactly remember what Apple calls it, however, the Windows magnifier is really bad. I tried also some third-party zooming tools and software for Windows, which were also really bad. This is something I really miss in Windows. In Windows, the magnifier really isn't that great.

I've basically used the solution since it was released. 

The solution is quite stable. there are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. It's reliable. 

I don't use technical support. It's my understanding that many private users don't. therefore, I can't really speak to how helpful or responsive they are. 

The initial setup is quite straightforward. A company shouldn't have any issues with the process. 

I work as a consultant for companies and it depends on the client. So sometimes I work in large environments, sometimes medium, sometimes small environments.

I'd recommend the solution to other users and companies. 

I'd rate the solution at a nine out of ten. I've been very happy with its capabilities.

I primarily use the solution for connecting to my remote machine, to the VPN, to my work network. That's the main purpose. I also use it for applications such as Microsoft Word or for accessing YouTube and items of that nature. 

The UI of the solution has not changed drastically over the years, and therefore, it's easy to get used to the solution if you've used earlier versions of Windows. It's user-friendly in that sense. 

Online technical support is helpful. There's a lot of documentation.

I notice a lot of latency in Windows 10. Sometimes it slows down things. If I use a virtualized environment and if I run Windows 10, it's definitely slow, even on my personal computer, if it is not SSD. The performance could be much better.

Built into the solution is Windows Defender, which is in all the recent versions of the Windows operating system, however, we still end up buying an extra antivirus product in the market to ensure we are secure. Windows Defender should be enhanced and compete with the market with other antivirus products so that it comes as part of the operating system and actually offers very good protection.

Native apps such as, for example, Windows Notepad, which is a basic feature provided by Windows over the last 24 years, have had no enhancement at all. If you try to play around with some data or put it in a Notepad note, it still is quite difficult to use. You need to pay for Notepad++ or some TextPad, or some other application tool to get some actual usability.

I've been using the solution for a couple of years at this point. It's been a while. 

The performance needs improvement. It can be a bit slow. It takes time to render things. In comparison, Mac renders items very quickly.

I've used online tech support in the past. It depends on the case. In a few cases, it is informative and in a few cases, it is not. What I notice is that if I am using Windows, from Windows 95 onwards, if I recollect it correctly. As an end-user, there isn't too much of a drastic change in how it works, and as I've used it for 24 years or so, I have every good understanding of the product. 

I started using Windows since Windows 95. Before that, I likely used DOS. 

I was not a part of the installation process. I got the hardware with the Windows 10 already installed on it. Therefore, I can't speak to the process or how long it takes to deploy.

My understanding is that the license was paid for upfront with the laptop. I can't speak to the exact cost as I just have it on my laptop, and it came already installed and ready to go.

I did not evaluate other options before choosing this product.

I'm a customer and an end-user.

I'd rate the solution at a seven out of ten. It's an okay product, however, there are areas for improvement, specifically if you look at the performance. 

That said, I would recommend the solution to other users. 

I am using it as an operating system. My two daughters and I are using Windows 10 on three laptops at home, and it is working very well.

It is stable. I have a lot of applications running on it, and all the applications are running fine. I don't have any problems with it. 

Its interface is very nice, cool, and easy to use.

Its cost is very high and should be reduced. 

It would be helpful if Windows had its own antivirus to protect the OS. They should provide an antivirus with it.

I have been using Windows 10 for two years.

It is highly stable. It is more stable than Windows 7, and it also has inbuilt security updates. It seems that it has been tested with a lot of end-users. It is working fine, and there are no issues.

It is scalable, but it would require more resources. It requires 8GB RAM to work fine. Initially, my desktop had only 4GB, so there was some slowness, but with 8GB RAM, it is working very well. There are no issues.

I hardly needed any support because a lot of resources and groups are available, and we just go through these resources. 

I was using Windows 7. Windows 10 is more stable than Windows 7.

I have also used Ubuntu Linux and other free operating systems, but they don't have a good GUI like Windows 10. I am also not able to find a lot of applications that run on them.

It is easy to implement. I upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10, and it took a maximum of 30 minutes.

I installed it myself.

I have taken the full license, but its cost is very high. Its cost should be reduced.

I would definitely recommend this solution. I would rate Windows 10 a 10 out of 10.

We use Windows 10 to manage clients, the CRM or ERP such as SAP or Microsoft Dynamics.

Windows 10 is an established operating system. It's a good solution.

It is easy and simple to use, and it's also fast.

It's a quiet operating system, that integrates well with third-party applications.

I like that it has many features that are easily displayed. 

It is also very intuitive. For example, if I have a printer with no drivers, the Windows Operating System installs it for me. This makes everything easier for me.

We are always excited and interested to learn about new features. It would be helpful to know of the newly available features in advance.

I would prefer to talk to the computer as I would speak to a secretary rather than use the keyboard. It would be nice to be able to speak to the computer and ask it to do certain functions or tasks. A voice-activated assistant would be very helpful.

When compared to MacIntosh, or Linux, it would be helpful to include some of their operating system philosophy.

It is incompatible with some communications when you need to share some data.

I have been using Windows 10 for ten years.

I don't have any issues with the stability of Windows 10.

Windows 10 is a scalable product.

We also use Windows Server. It's a good operating system. The features meet the requirements of the network.

With Windows Server, the user can print, use the internet, and can use some applications. It is a good characteristic for one server. You don't need several servers because one Windows Server is sufficient.

I would rate Windows Server a nine out of ten.

Windows Server is a scalable product, and it is also stable.

Windows Server integrates well.

I have some common issues with Windows when running the setup again. Sometimes it is difficult because of the new features that have been added. Given the time to learn about them, it would be easier for me.

The initial setup can sometimes be simple and other times it can be complex. For a new user, it may be complex.

I started working with Windows in 1993.

I would rate Windows 10 a nine out of ten.
