Are you still using Windows 10 for your business? It might be time to consider upgrading.
Windows 11 has been gaining traction, with its market share reaching 35.55% as of October 2024. While Windows 10 still dominates at 60.97%, that gap is closing—and there are good reasons to make the switch now.
The Clock Is Ticking on Windows 10 Support
The biggest reason to upgrade? Windows 10 support is ending on October 14, 2025. Microsoft will no longer provide free security updates or bug fixes, leaving your system vulnerable to cyber threats.
Yes, Microsoft is offering extended security updates, but at $30 per device per year, costs can add up quickly—especially for businesses with multiple devices. Plus, this is only a short-term solution.
Why More People Are Switching to Windows 11
One reason for the recent surge in Windows 11 adoption is the rise of AI-powered PCs. These newer machines are optimized for artificial intelligence tasks, and users want to ensure their devices run the latest software. There’s also talk of Windows Intelligence, a possible rebranding of Windows 11’s AI-powered features.
But upgrading isn’t just about keeping up with trends. Windows 11 offers a smoother, more efficient user experience, with:
✅ Customizable widgets to keep important info at your fingertips
✅ An improved File Explorer for faster navigation
✅ Enhanced security to protect against modern cyber threats
Stronger Security for Your Business
Cyberattacks are becoming more advanced, and Windows 11 provides better built-in protections against:
🔒 Ransomware – Malicious software that locks your files and demands a ransom to restore them
📧 Phishing scams – Fake emails that trick you into giving away sensitive information
With cyber threats evolving, running an unsupported operating system puts your business at unnecessary risk.
What’s the Best Move?
If you’re committed to Windows 10, the one-year security extension gives you a little more time. But let’s be honest—you’ll need to upgrade eventually. By switching now, you avoid last-minute headaches and get the added benefits of speed, security, and efficiency.
