Whatever your industry, you need a computer that increases your productivity and efficiency. If you are in the market for a new desktop, you have probably looked at more than a few models running Microsoft Windows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Pros<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Microsoft Windows is one of the most popular operating systems in the world for good reason. With each version of the software, the Microsoft Corporation introduces features geared toward business machines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Flexibility<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the advantages of working with Windows is its flexibility. Whatever type of hardware you use, you can find a compatible version of Windows. The operating system runs smoothly on computers with touchscreens, as well as traditional keyboard and mouse setups. You can even run versions of Windows over the Linux kernel of a<a href=\"https:\/\/www.suse.com\/products\/desktop\/\"> desktop Linux<\/a> machine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"930\" height=\"621\" src=\"https:\/\/mywindowshub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/windows-pc.jpg\" alt=\"windows desktop\" class=\"wp-image-27795\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mywindowshub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/windows-pc.jpg 930w, https:\/\/mywindowshub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/windows-pc-768x513.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 930px) 100vw, 930px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Integration with productivity software<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Many businesses are already using Microsoft software for tasks such as word processing and accounting.<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Microsoft_Office\"> Microsoft Office<\/a> has become a standard piece of business equipment. While these programs can run on other operating systems, they integrate easily into their native Windows habitat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Remote connections<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With a growing number of working professionals diving headfirst into WFH life, remote connectivity has scaled these employees\u2019 list of priorities. The<a href=\"https:\/\/mywindowshub.com\/windows-remote-desktop\/\"> remote desktop<\/a> feature in Windows 10 makes this a simple operation. With the right configuration and connection, you can access your Windows desktop from anywhere in the world, whether on-the-go or meeting deadlines from your home office.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Cons<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The majority of businesses work with Microsoft Windows. However, many organizations choose to swerve in another direction by opting for Mac or Linux operating systems. Security and complexity are two of the main drawbacks to adopting Windows in a business setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Security concerns<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The popularity of Microsoft systems has a potential downside looming below the surface. Because so many companies rely on the software, cybercriminals are incessantly<a href=\"https:\/\/mywindowshub.com\/security-loophole-in-windows-10-theme-settings-may-compromise-your-credentials\/\"> looking for weaknesses<\/a>. There are frequent stories of data theft or ransomware attacks that cleared the hurdles of Microsoft defenses. Microsoft provides updates to protect vulnerabilities, but businesses must be vigilant about keeping their security solutions current.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Compatibility with older programs<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Some smaller businesses choose to work with older software solutions in hopes of avoiding the inconveniences involved with migrating data to a more current program. Moving to a modern version of Windows may force the issue. The cost of moving to Windows will have an increased cost of upgrading to compatible software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Learning curve<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019ve worked with a non-Windows operating system for several years, moving to a new system can pose a challenge. Rest assured, a user can pick up the basic features of Windows without much effort. However, working with advanced features or learning the many customization options will require some time and patience on the user\u2019s end.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Using Windows for Your Business Computing Needs<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Choosing an operating system for your business computer is a decision worthy of your undivided attention. After all, it\u2019s the framework through which you will access every piece of software on your network. Microsoft Windows provides a flexible and functional foundation that will help businesses stay organized and productive.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When it comes to choosing the right digital tools for your business, functionality is the primary concern.
