What's new in Windows 11
SHI is your go-to Microsoft partner.
Ever since the launch of Windows 2.11 in March 1989, SHI has been helping organizations realize the benefits of the latest Microsoft operating systems.
Together, we know how to build a modern workplace environment and support each step of your journey as you migrate, modernize, optimize, and manage your Microsoft investments – including Windows 11 Pro PCs.
With gold certifications in cloud platform, communications, Windows, devices, and application development, SHI has met specific criteria demonstrating the highest levels of expertise in both Microsoft services and products. The result: talent, technology, and resources to help you solve what’s next.
No matter what specifications your organization requires, we can help you roll out Windows 11 Pro PCs from selection and procurement, throughout the entire device lifecycle. SHI’s 7-step ebook guides you through a customized adoption plan, helping you assess where you stand and how to move forward with optimized IT solutions and services.
Windows 10 will reach end of support on October 14, 2025. That might feel like a long way off, but the countdown has already begun. If your current devices aren’t compatible with Windows 11, or their performance is impacting the end-user experience, you need to start planning your device refresh sooner than later.
Start the transition today with SHI’s 7-step guide to unlock the security, productivity, and collaboration benefits of Windows 11.
As well as the obvious security threat of using unsupported devices, failing to upgrade in time means you’re running the gauntlet with user experience, your IT teams’ productivity, and your organization’s bottom line.
And leaving it to the last minute isn’t a good option. Start now so you have time to assess and select the right devices for each of your user personas, plan the configuration and deployment of your new devices to your hybrid workforce, and make provisions to get the old devices back securely and sustainably.
Forrester reports a three-year ROI of 250% for Windows 11 and payback in just 6 months.
The report also revealed how Windows 11:
- Reduced the risk of a successful security attack by 20%
- Increased end-user productivity by 15%
- Decreased in time for deployment of devices by 25%
- Increased productivity for security and IT teams by 20%
