Using the future of Windows

Windows 11: Switch now in time

Windows 10 is nearing the end of its lifecycle – and that means that security updates will no longer be available. Companies with older devices are faced with a choice: buy new hardware or take an increased security risk? With Azure Virtual Desktop, partimus offers a solution that makes the transition to Windows 11 easier, reduces costs and allows existing hardware to continue to be used.

The challenge

  • No more security updates – systems without support are vulnerable to cyber threats
  • Increased security risk – without regular patches, the risk of attacks and data loss increases
  • Expensive new hardware purchases – companies with incompatible devices have to invest in new hardware
  • Complex decision-making – balancing high costs and insecure systems poses challenges for companies
  • Rising IT costs & effort – The continued operation of old systems or a complete renewal requires time, budget and resources

The possibility

  • Increased efficiency – optimized IT processes thanks to a modern, cloud-based infrastructure
  • Maximum scalability – flexibly adapt and expand resources at any time
  • Increased security – Windows 11 on AVD offers comprehensive protection mechanisms for your IT
  • Lower hardware requirements – continued use of existing devices without expensive new purchases
  • Simplified IT management – centralized administration for more control and less effort
  • Flexible working environments – easily implement remote and hybrid work
  • Cost optimization – reduction of license and operating costs for an economical IT strategy
