Windows 10 Reviews

I am working with Aras PLM.

We are using soft phones.

We are using Aras PLM, Windows 10 and Jira.

Teams has very good features.

It is more comfortable and it is widely used everywhere in India. Almost 80-90% of people are using Windows 10.

Microsoft Firewall is activated, but no other edge tools.

There is an issue with using Outlook, as you have to acquire a license. The basic version offered by Windows 10 does not allow direct preview of emails, requiring downloads instead. If they could allow email preview in the free version without downloading, it would be beneficial.

I have been working with this solution for the last five months.

The system is very fast and quick.

I have never needed customer service support.

I have not used any previous solutions.

I have researched Oracle Agile PLM and Aras Innovator on my website, but feedback is not yet available for these solutions. I was wondering about other tools, particularly in the area of testing or test management.

PLM is the main focus.

Aras PLM is a US-based company that can be found through searching.

The company name is spelled A R A S.

I rate this solution 9 out of 10.

I use it for running various applications, like Office 365.

Compared to earlier versions I've used, it's certainly an improvement in some ways. I started with Windows way back, maybe even before 3.0, though that was the first widely used. 

I was already using Windows 2.0 during university, then was required to use 3.0, 3.1, and Windows 95. I skipped 98 and switched to XP. 

So, it's hard to pinpoint a specific "business case" for Windows 10. There's Linux as an alternative, but compatibility with the applications I use just wasn't there, making it a poor choice for me. In that sense, it's mostly just a one-way street.

Stability can be an issue. I have to restart it every two days. And the boot time is quite long. My laptop's old, has no SSD, and is just a traditional Winchester. Had desktops with Windows 11 and SSDs, much better performance. But hardware limitations on my current laptop lead to stability and response issues.

It's more like the whole reinstall every two years thing. It makes cleaning a pain. Performance improves significantly after a fresh install, then slowly deteriorates as I add more programs.

But my biggest concern with Windows 10 is actually bigger than my situation. I'm replacing my laptop anyway, but I read that Windows 10 support ends in a year or so. And with hardware limitations, many other computers won't run Windows 11. So it's not just me. A lot of people with decent, still-working Windows 10 machines will lose support and be unable to switch to 11. 

This will be a significant problem for individuals and institutions. Large companies with thousands of computers don't replace them every three years, and they might face issues with many computers unable to run Windows 11 and lacking support for 10.

I've been using Windows 10 for several years. It's the core system on my current laptop. So, I've been using it for over five years, basically since its introduction.

Windows 10 is definitely more stable, not like the earlier versions with those constant blue screens when the system crashed. I've been using it for years and maybe seen the blue screen only two or three times. So, it's really stable.

The problem isn't the stability, but the performance definitely degrades over time.

If you add more RAM, Windows will use it and provide better performance. But otherwise, it's not easy to interpret scalability in this context.

I work in a small organization. Maybe 10 to 15 people use Windows 10, but individually not centrally managed.

We get support mostly from internet searches. Windows has some built-in diagnostics for network issues, printing problems, and so on. Sometimes, the analysis results or even failures from these tools lead you to different support homepages. I've found some helpful answers there, but it's not always clear whether it's an official Microsoft page or just a general support site. 

On the other hand, Windows is so widely used that almost every problem has been encountered by someone else. There are usually multiple solutions or workarounds available online. So, in that sense, the support is pretty good. I've never actually had to contact a technical support rep directly.

Positive

The full setup takes about an hour and a half. Naturally, installing all your programs after that can take two days, but that's a separate issue.

The process was pretty simple. I prepped an installation flash drive with the necessary components from the Windows homepage, stuck it in, and the setup started. 

I gave some parameters and entered my license key, and that was pretty much it. There were some choices along the way, but they were all straightforward.

It was on-premises for me, but I know larger organizations can deploy Windows remotely with disk images or over the network. That's a different process, though.

I paid for a license, but there's no monthly fee. It was a one-time purchase, maybe around $100, with my laptop. Not a huge expense.

I didn't evaluate other options. When Windows 10 came out, I was still on Windows 7, and I switched pretty quickly within a year. Didn't really explore alternative options. I did try Linux as a possibility, but the software I use isn't compatible.

Overall, I would rate the solution a nine out of ten. I would advise not to install too many unnecessary programs because it will definitely slow down Windows, especially those with resident components running in the background.

I use Windows 10 for everything in my IT job. I use it for different tools, programs, and client software in a client environment. I also use it for emails, reading books, and watching movies—for work and entertainment.

I've used different Windows releases for many years, so it's the preferred operating system that I'm used to. I don't use the tiled interface that Microsoft introduced to unify laptop and mobile interfaces, but I find it inconvenient on laptops. I prefer the more classical, conservative interface like Windows 7 and XP.

I think there are too many unnecessary questions when installing the solution. I try to do it as quickly as possible, answering "no" or "I don't want" to most questions. I don't remember the questions because I just try to skip them all. I don't pay attention to particular questions as I don't need them. I know I'll get Windows at the end, which I need. Compared to years ago, the installation process now has many more non-technical questions about usage and family members, which I don't like.

I have been using the product for six to seven years. 

I've never directly contacted Microsoft support, but I've found answers on their support website through Google searches. 

I don't personally manage the security features; corporate administrators handle that. I don't control the default Windows security services. 

Our company plans to upgrade to Windows 11 in a few months, replacing Windows 10. I'm unsure about performance compared to Linux, but I'm more used to Windows, so I don't plan to switch.

We have OneDrive integration, but I don't use it much. For security and privacy reasons, I prefer keeping my files locally on hard disks rather than in the cloud. I also don't like distributing my files across cloud networks to make them more available to others.

I'd rate Windows 10 as eight out of ten. It's not a ten because of unnecessary features like the tiled interface and installation questions. Also, a controversial feature in Windows 11 would automatically take screenshots every few seconds, including passwords and secret information. After complaints, Microsoft made this feature off by default. They presented it as an advantage for retrieving lost information, but people feared privacy implications. That's why I don't rate it a ten. 

From Windows 98 to Windows 10, there were various issues, however, Windows 10 has significantly improved. It processes information more quickly, and when using mapping software such as QGIS or ArcGIS, the system remains stable, especially when handling heavy files.

There were some issues with Windows 10, however, I cannot specify them at this moment.

The system frequently attempts to update Windows 10 software, which significantly slows down my laptop computer. Though they fixed many issues for Windows 10, the update problem has become worse.

When running mapping software and attempting to load an image, the system sometimes reboots unexpectedly. This might be partially due to my laptop, but it shouldn’t happen with 16 GB of memory.

I am currently using Windows 10. I attempted to use Windows 11, however, it was not compatible with my needs.

The overall experience with Windows 10 is acceptable. Microsoft should maintain Windows 10 in its current state without making significant changes.

Windows 10 is mostly used in our production system. We are a TV station with some software depending on an operating system. This software won't be able to start or manage in other operating systems. We were forced to use Windows 10. Since we updated that software, we switched to Windows 11.

Journalists and headquarters are using Windows 11. Some PCs in the international department use Windows 10 because some scripts and certificates still don't work as they should on Windows 11. Little by little, day by day, we are updating our software and switching to Windows 11.

I like the solution's control panel, system settings, and backup.

Windows 10 has a lot of Microsoft Widgets and preinstalled software we never use.

I have been using the solution for more than five years.

Windows 10 is a very stable solution.

I rate the solution’s stability a nine out of ten.

Around 20 users are using Windows 10 in our organization.

I rate the solution’s scalability an eight out of ten.

I also work with Windows 11. The hardware and operating system is easier in Windows 10. It is more fluid and easier to work with Windows 10 than on Windows 11.

The solution’s initial setup is easy. Installing the operating system and setting up everything takes around one hour.

On a scale from one to ten, where one is difficult and ten is easy, I rate the solution’s initial setup an eight out of ten.

The solution is very efficient and provides value for money.

The solution’s pricing is reasonable.

I am satisfied with the updates of Windows 10. I would advise users to choose Windows 11 because updates and support to Windows 10 will end soon.

Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

We have embedded our tool in Windows 10, so we do R&D through that for security integration with BitLocker.

There is no difficulty in integrating our tool with Windows 10.

Windows Teams has been upgraded recently, and the calendar has issues in it. The Teams calendar is experiencing problems, and that is the only issue I personally have.

We have been working with Windows 10 for the past one year.

It is quite easy to set up Windows 10, as our tech team looks after this, and since we are an OEM, we have many tech specialists. The deployment and running of tools is not an issue.

I have not faced any issues regarding stability or performance; any issues we have are from our end.

The support from Microsoft is lukewarm.

Neutral

It is quite easy to set up Windows 10, as our tech team looks after this, and since we are an OEM, we have many tech specialists. The deployment and running of tools is not an issue.

Pricing is an issue, as we have been looking for an AWS service that is cheaper. I have been looking at some other tools, and that will happen in the next month since we have our licenses for this month.

We use Gmail and Outlook a lot, and other than that, we use Drive and nothing else.

We do not work with Cortana voice commands.

You just have to ask for permission. I do not handle all this.

Outlook works for us, and we mainly use Outlook and Google, and it is working well for us.

It is the time thing itself, because we have time-intensive activities, so time zone differences affect us. This is me just trying to frame what my tech team has told me.

On a scale of one to ten, I would rate Windows 10 an eight.

I work in a BPO call center, where we only use third-party client tools to make calls. The operating system is just the best. We have nothing much more to do with the operating system, as all the work is done in the tool only.

The solution's most valuable feature is the Snip and Sketch tool in Windows 10, which is a screenshot product.

Sometimes, the tool gives a blue screen without any reason, and then I have to restart the system. It is an area where improvements are required. If the system is running or when it is getting started a blue screen appears in between. It is not a regular issue.

Connecting to customer care takes too long, making it an area where improvements are required.

I have been using Windows 10 for three or four years.

My company contacted the solution's technical support, who claimed that the blue screen appeared because some hardware failure issue might be causing the problem. I rate the technical support a seven out of ten.

Neutral

The product's configuration and deployment phases are easy.

The time required to deploy the solution depends on the system hardware configuration and it would take a maximum of 20 minutes to complete.

The tool is used for some basic requirements, so I don't know how we can say that Windows 10 has helped to save money. It is the basic requirement that any tool offers to its users. If we use some extra firewall or antivirus tools, then we can give the rating, but currently, Windows 10 is used for basic needs.

The tool is cheaply priced. It is not very cheap, but one can manage its costs easily.

I use Microsoft Defender in Windows 10. When it comes to the security part of Windows 10, sometimes it fails to update. In our company, we are using another antivirus tool that offers total security. On top of Windows 10, I have a third-party antivirus tool.

One time, I tried using Windows 11, but I was not satisfied with it because it was very heavy for my system, and my system slowed down. Performance in Windows 10 is better than Windows 11.

I have not integrated the tool with other products.

There are no AI integration projects with the tool that my company handles.

I am satisfied with the tool. After Windows 7, Windows 8 was very bad. When Windows 10 was launched, it was very good and comparable to Windows 7. The upgraded features in Windows 10 are very good.

I recommend the tool to others.

I rate the tool a nine out of ten.

I use the solution in my company as it is the operating system installed on my laptop. The tool is used for regular day-to-day use, like for running apps and some official work.

The tool's expensive part is an area where improvements are required.

I have experience working with Windows 10. I have been using it since it was released on the market.

I never had to contact the solution's technical support.

Personally, I use macOS, and I believe it is good for personal use.

The product's initial setup phase was very simple, and I feel anyone can do it.

The solution can be deployed in 45 minutes.

Windows 10 is definitely better than Windows 7 in terms of performance, as it is comparatively faster and easier to work with, so all the work gets done quickly.

The tool's price used to be good earlier, but now it has become expensive. The tool is worth the money, especially since Windows 10 users got auto-upgraded to Windows 11.

After the tool's implementation, I can say that I see that its performance is better since the system does not hang anymore. The UI is also good. Overall, the experience is even better with Windows 11.

Windows 10 was definitely better than Windows 7. Windows 11 is better than Windows 10.

I like the fact that Windows 10 introduced Windows Defender, so I don't have to install antivirus separately. Windows Defender works well.

I have not integrated the tool with other teams.

I recommend Windows 11 over Windows 10.

I rate the tool an eight out of ten.

I use the solution in my company for work and business purposes.

The solution's most valuable feature is that it is easy to use.

When I try to install and use apps in Windows 10, they don't work properly, making it an area that needs improvement.

Just like cell phones, Windows 10 even installs some applications, but the ones that are available in the market are not very good, difficult to use, or do not get installed properly.

I have a complaint about Microsoft, which is mostly about Outlook, and not about Windows 10. I have nothing bad to say about Windows 10.

I have been using Windows 10 for four to five years. I am a customer of the product.

The tool's stability is very good.

I use the product every day in my company.

I used Windows 7 in the past. Compared to Windows 7, I see that Windows 10 has many functionalities that I don't use.

From one to ten, I rate the initial setup phase an eight, where ten means it is an easy process and one means it is difficult.

The solution is deployed on an on-premises model.

The solution can be deployed in three hours.

I deployed the tool in my company.

I rate the product's price as seven on a scale of one to ten, where ten means it is a very expensive tool. I need around 80 USD for Microsoft Office because I already paid for Windows 10. In general, I don't pay anything for the product.

I don't plan to switch to Windows 11 from Windows 10.

The capacity of the solution is very good.

I did not face any problems when using Windows 10.

I recommend the product to others.

It is a very good product that is easy to use. I don't like that the solution no longer offers me the chance to choose the desktop option. It's a very nice software to use.

I rate the tool a seven out of ten.

The solution is mostly used by our employees for their daily office work. We use the solution in the IT industry.

The solution provides multitasking features. We use Windows 10 because our employees are more familiar with Windows than Linux. Windows 10 is more user-friendly than Linux.

The solution's resource usage for the user could be improved. Somehow, we cannot control the usage in the back end. We cannot control what the user has installed in their system. Sometimes, there is a spike in the solution's usage. We are not using the solution's security feature because we got a report from our security team that it is not quite good.

I have been using the solution for four to five years.

We haven’t faced any issues with the solution’s stability.

I rate the solution’s stability an eight out of ten.

Around 15 users are using the solution in our organization.

I rate the solution’s scalability an eight out of ten.

The solution’s initial setup is easy. The deployment takes less than one hour.

On a scale from one to ten, where one is difficult and ten is easy, I rate the solution’s initial setup an eight out of ten.

The biggest value we get from Windows 10 is its compatibility and user-friendly UI.

The solution is a bit expensive.

In Windows 10, we have Windows Defender for security. We haven't faced any compatibility issues with Windows 10, and it works normally with our system. I would recommend the solution to other users because most people are familiar with Windows.

Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.
