According to Forrester, companies will not migrate to Windows 8 massively. Windows 7 will remain privileged for now.
"Most companies do not adopt Windows 8 as primary operating system," says a recent study by Forrester. Analysts have therefore drawn a line on the latest Microsoft operating system, widely criticized. This rejection is similar to what Windows Vista had suffered. According to Forrester, CIOs are focused on migration underway to Windows 7, enjoyed popular system, but earlier version of Windows. This migration is intended to replace Windows XP system whose end maintenance was scheduled for April 8, 2014.
The study is based on a survey of 1,200 business leaders in the United States and Europe. According to the survey, 48% of PCs are running Windows 7, 76% of recent renewals being made with this version of Windows. In France, the figures are 68% and 50%. Only 28% of French companies are considering purchasing new PCs with Windows 8.
Employees prefer Windows 8
Windows 8 is not seen as providing any benefit or feature or in operating costs by the companies. Migration therefore has no reason to be. The competitors such as iOS or Android operating systems are widely acclaimed for terminals such tablets. The challenge of the unique system with common interface across all screens therefore seems lost, at least for the moment-for Microsoft.
Nevertheless, in this deluge of blackheads, there is a ray of sunshine for Microsoft: employees - so end users - prefer Windows 8 up to 38% against 35% for Windows 7. Windows 8 could therefore enter the business via BYOD according to Forrester. But for their tablets, employees opt to 20% for Windows 8 and 26% for iOS.
