While technology will still function, it will degrade on an accelerated schedule. First, security vulnerabilities will go unpatched, leaving systems wide open to modern cyberattacks. Next, no technical support will be available from Microsoft. No feature or performance updates will be provided, and many organizations may find themselves unable to run critical software or interface with updated platforms, due to incompatibility issues.
This is where a proactive technology provider like JEI Tech is valuable. We manage our customers technology 24/7 and help them plan, so they are always secure, supported, and productive. This helps avoid large capital expenditures and maintains productivity across teams and systems. If your current provider hasn’t already started talking to you about a Windows 10 transition, that’s a red flag.
1. Determine Windows 11 Compatibility for All Hardware: JEI Tech strongly ad-vises organizations to evaluate their current hardware to determine Windows 11 compatibility.
2. Develop a roadmap for replacing outdated devices: By taking the time to do this ahead of the deadline, organizations will seamlessly operate.
3. Avoid DIY upgrades: Organizations that forget to plan are often tempted to “do-it-yourself” upgrades, which can result in total data loss, system instability or void-ing their cybersecurity insurance.
4. Partner with JEI Tech: We recommend you work with a certified managed technology services provider like JEI Tech . The company is ISO 27001 Compliant. Only a handful of providers in the U.S. and Canada are compliant.
While Microsoft will make Windows 11 software freely available, upgrading isn’t as simple as clicking a button. JEI Tech encourages all existing customers and local businesses to start evaluating their technology infrastructure immediately, rather than wait until the last minute when inventory and support resources may be scarce.
