What Microsoft OS is best for business?
-
I think that rather quickly even SMBs will start to see value in those things. It's become common for everyone to have multiple devices today. That's going to increase before it reduces again.
-
The ability to install on multiple devices is quite a selling-point for many, along with the online storage. They can have shared data on multiple different devices, something most people would love for business application.
-
Agrees. I think SMBs have the hardest learning curve but also the most to gain from the new storage options. That can really be a game changer.
-
I think small businesses have a high percentage of single users with lots of company devices compared to larger companies. Big companies tend to just be like "here is your desktop" but smaller companies might give you lots of different technology or allow you to use more of your own.
-
I must be in the wrong SMBs. Most that I've been with are avoiding the use of personal devices if at all possible.
-
@Dashrender maybe you deal with people more interested is security than ease of use?

That'll change. Change comes first in big markets

So, what is the best OS for personal use?
-
@Mike-Ralston generally the same answers. The latest. Old is rarely better in software.

I've had compatability issues with tons of things, especially games, with 8 and 8.1

The best answer is 'the one that gets the job done'
There is no one best answer because it completely depends on what you're trying to accomplish. -

Sure. But over time that will decline whereas with an old OS over time that will increase.

The concept to watch out for is "investing in technical debt".
