Windows 11 – Migration

Configuration

Description

Windows 11 is taking over as Microsoft's primary OS, coming with stricter requirements than its predecessor. This makes the Migration process much riskier, as IT teams struggle to track and manage the impact of their rollout across device performance, application stability and employee experience.

The Windows 11 – Migration Library Pack enables you to migrate with confidence by monitoring your rollout process from a technical and sentiment perspective. You can ensure Windows 11 is both installed and stable, as well as ensure it is well received across your workforce.

The pack enables you to:

  • Track your migration progress from a technical and sentiment perspective
  • Monitor the stability and performance of devices pre-to-post migration
  • Measure and compare satisfaction pre-to-post migration
  • Drive OS adoption with contextual readiness, tips and guidelines campaigns

In addition, the pack provides a post-migration feedback campaign to identify any issues experienced by migrated employees.

This pack is key for IT managers looking to deploy a successful Windows 11 Migration, as well as their support teams who need to closely monitor their migration and quickly investigate and fix issues during the process.
