Windows 10 will be a free upgrade for Windows 7 and Windows 8 users

Posted by admin on Jan 26, 2015 in Latest News |

In Redmond on Tuesday, Microsoft operating system chief Terry Myerson announced that current users of Windows 7, Windows 8.1, and Windows Phone 8.1 will be able to upgrade to Windows 10 for free for one year after the operating system launches. Once you’ve claimed the upgrade, Microsoft will keep you updated for the supported lifetime of the device.

“We think of Windows 10 as a service,” Myerson said.

This excludes Enterprise versions. You’ll need Software assurance to get that upgrade.

Your existing OS will need to be updated to the latest Service Pack , and connected to the Internet to get the free upgrade. This should hopefully weed out the many illegal products out there in the wild.

The free upgrade will be available for 1 year.

We have been testing Windows 10 for a while and I think it has just the right mix of all the good windows 8 features without loosing our familiar windows 7 habits. The start bar is better than ever and you can have lots of different desktops.

Enjoy,

Testimonials

ODC have been brilliant. They are always on the end of the line and on call when we've needed help. They understand that we depend on having an It system that works. It's really nice to be able to talk to someone who can translate what I need and come back with results. We have been delighted to find a local firm that can effectively support our IT requirements. We are highly satisfied with the level of service provided and would recommend ODC without hesitation. LJ Hooker Manager Jude Leske

We have engaged ODC Ltd as our Technology Consultants. They can service our needs either remotely from their office in Vila into our server at "The Summit", or, when necessary, they attend onsite. I have found their response time to be excellent, and their follow up services are always delivered in a timely, pleasant and efficient manner. It is very comforting to know that we now have this level of expertise available for a reasonable price in Port Vila. Lesley Batty

ODC truly appreciates and understands what is needed for a business to be productive. We always appreciate and respect the level of personal and professional dialogue with the ODC staff.

Their work demonstrates the highest quality and expertise, and we are confident that any computer problem (no matter how big or small) can and will be repaired. Anna Stevens Administration Manager

We have used Akisanti for over 20 years. This longstanding relationship is a result of Olaf’s true professionalism and specialist knowledge within the IT industry. Olaf’s expert recommendations for our businesses technological infrastructural changes have proven both time and cost effective. The response time when a problem arises, is immediate. Their added ability to solve problems remotely in a crisis is vital to our business. Akisanti is a company we can depend on. Fiona Campbell-Hearn

Akisanti has provided us with excellent service for the past 15 years. They took the time to find out about our organisation and what best suited our requirements, and in the process assisted us to grow from a 3 man band to a company of 18 staff in 5 different cities. Olaf’s knowledge of the IT industry and his ability to match these to our needs made us feel comfortable from the start. He and his team were always extremely professional I would have no hesitation recommending his services. Linda

We would just like to thank you for the professional and easy transition to your company to provide all our IT requirements. We have been extremely impressed with the level of service you have provided along with the level of expertise of your staff. Previously we had experienced a lot of problems and it so refreshing to be given this type of service that corrects the problems immediately. We have no hesitation recommending ODC to everybody looking for a complete IT solution. Roland Cowles GM

Our office is situated 30 minutes from Vila. ODC can use their NAVERISK software to remote into our computer server from anywhere. It reduces the time taken to solve problems that crop up during the day. This timing is very important as we run a tourist facility which requires that our point of sale hardware is always functioning. I can certainly verify that having the remote functionality to fix our IT problems is a winner in terms of efficiency and minimises down time of our network. Lesley
