Microsoft Windows 10

Windows 10 is Microsoft’s cutting-edge operating system (OS) which combines a modern desktop experience with advanced security and management features. Windows 10 is a key component of the Microsoft Modern Workplace suite of products.

For businesses, Windows 10 Pro is the baseline version and comes with these features included as standard:

Productivity

Benefit from the latest modern productivity tools which allow employees to work and collaborate smarter and more efficiently. Combined with Microsoft Teams, SharePoint, OneDrive and EMS, Windows 10 becomes so much more than just an operating system.

Advanced security and information protection

Protect your devices, data and employee identities with intelligence-powered security and data protection tools such as Microsoft Windows Defender and Enterprise Mobility + Security (EMS).

IT management and updates

Easily roll out Windows 10 deployments and continuous updates. Deploy, manage, and update devices remotely with Windows Autopilot and Intune, speeding up processes and driving efficiencies for IT.

Windows 10 comes in multiple versions and rather like Microsoft Office, it can be purchased via a perpetual license or as part of a Microsoft 365 subscription.

• Windows 10 Pro – Perpetual licence. Included with new machines or available to purchase £219.99
• Windows 10 Business – Included in Microsoft 365 Business Premium. £18.09 user/month (annual commitment)
• Windows 10 Enterprise E3 – Available via a monthly subscription. £5.30 user/month (annual commitment)
• Windows 10 Enterprise E5 – Available via a monthly subscription, includes Microsoft Defender for Endpoint. £9.70 user/month (annual commitment)

Each installation of Windows 10 Pro has all the Enterprise features included in the installation; you simply activate using your new subscription. If your subscription expires, the Enterprise features get turned off and you revert back to a Windows 10 Pro licensed device.
