Your journey to Windows 10

Find your new technology, calibrate applications and evolve over time. Your journey with Windows 10 is one of opportunity and growth. Find out how to transform your IT and the workplace.

Applications

Check your apps are Windows 10 compatible and then retire, refresh or repackage where necessary. Deploy your Universal Windows Platform (UWP), MSI or packaged apps to a supported version of Windows 10, then begin the next cycle of application discovery and maintenance.

Infrastructure

Define your required IT infrastructure and compare it against your current state. Use best practice guidance and design work streams to bridge the gap. Deploy services and configure systems to meet Windows 10 requirements and explore the Windows-as-a-Service update model.

Data & Settings

Identify data stored on client devices and decide what to protect, retire, or migrate. Develop a process to capture user accounts, user files and app settings, then use Microsoft User State Migration Tool (USMT), or a third-party offering to perform the migration.

Client hardware

Identify devices compatible with Windows 10 which meet your specific needs and find your technology shortfall. Develop a purchase strategy for new devices and a safe disposal protocol for retiring devices as you move to Windows-as-a-Service, while considering Device-as-a-Service options.

Licensing

Choose the version of Windows 10 to suit your needs, using free-of-charge evaluation licenses if you need proof of concept. Obtain licenses from Microsoft and evaluate the need for step-up licenses and Advanced Threat Protection (ATP). We’ll keep you informed of semi-annual feature releases.

People

Prepare your people for change by using questionnaires and workshops to create an educational course that will cover all necessary areas. Build a content and communications plan and run pilots to find shortfalls. Make sure resources are available for those who need a refresh or missed the initial sessions.
