A business upgrade is about more than clicking 'update' — a little preparation avoids downtime and frustration.

Check and plan

Start by checking which machines are compatible and which need replacing. Confirm your key business software works on Windows 11, and schedule upgrades outside busy periods.

Back up and roll out

Back up everything first, upgrade in stages rather than all at once, and have support on hand for the first few days. We can plan and manage the whole rollout for you.

Key points

  • Check device compatibility across the team
  • Confirm key software works on Windows 11
  • Back up before you start
  • Roll out in stages, not all at once
