Bad news: They aren't, and Windows 10 end of support is looming
There is some good news for Microsoft on the Windows 11 enterprise adoption front as a survey of more than 750,000 Windows endpoints indicates that a healthy 88 percent of those not already running the tech giant's latest operating system are ready for an upgrade.
However, with 11 percent of those devices needing to be replaced in order to run Microsoft's latest OS, time is running out. In October 2025, the support plug will be pulled for Windows 10 for the vast majority of customers. Some biz customers will be able to keep the security updates flowing for a few more years, but the direction of travel is clear – Microsoft would like users to migrate to Windows 11.
While 88 percent of devices yet to migrate are capable of meeting Microsoft's requirements for running Windows 11, the report from"The clock is ticking for enterprises to adopt the more secure and capable Windows 11, yet many organizations are stuck, unsure about their environment's readiness," said Simon Townsend, Field CTO of ControlUp."But doing nothing is not an option.
So, for Microsoft, it's good news that more enterprise hardware is ready for its flagship operating system and bad news that administrators are holding off on migrating. ®Microsoft resumes rollout of Windows 11 24H2 to Insiders
