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.

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

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.
