Don’t Take Risks: Make the Proactive Shift to New Windows 11 Pro Devices as Windows 10 Support Nears End
With the official end of support for Windows 10 approaching on October 14, 2025, organizations are urged to refresh their devices with new Windows 11 Pro PCs to safeguard operations, strengthen security, and embrace the future of productivity.
While the deadline may appear distant, the complexities of budgeting, decision-making, and technical migration require businesses to act now.
Continuing to operate on Windows 10 beyond this date poses significant risks. Without essential security updates, systems will become increasingly vulnerable to cyberattacks and emerging threats, leaving sensitive data and critical infrastructure exposed. Additionally, the discontinuation of technical support via phone or live channels will deprive businesses of crucial assistance for troubleshooting, potentially leading to costly downtime and operational disruption.
Migrating proactively to Windows 11 Pro is not simply an upgrade; it is a vital defensive strategy against these escalating risks.
In today’s hybrid work environments, where employees connect and share data from anywhere, security and efficiency are paramount. Windows 11 Pro is the most secure Windows operating system to date, offering a robust foundation that strengthens security while boosting productivity. Built on the Zero Trust principle, it verifies every user and device before granting access. This ensures end-to-end protection, granular authentication and authorization, and access limited strictly to what is necessary.
One of the biggest concerns delaying refresh cycles is the perceived complexity of transitioning to new hardware and operating systems, including potential disruptions to business processes or compatibility issues with critical corporate applications. However, extensive testing shows that Windows 11 Pro has a 99.7% application compatibility rate, ensuring a smooth transition with minimal disruption.
This means businesses can migrate with confidence, avoiding performance issues or operational roadblocks post-migration.
The rise of computers equipped with Neural Processing Units (NPUs) has created an entirely new category known as AI PCs. Microsoft has taken this innovation a step further with the introduction of Copilot+ PCs next-generation devices designed to deliver a faster, smarter, and more powerful AI experience.
With Copilot, the AI-powered assistant built into Windows 11 PCs, advanced digital support is no longer futuristic.
Copilot helps alleviate workloads, streamline daily tasks, and enhance efficiency by summarizing documents, generating creative ideas, organizing travel, assisting with sales and marketing plans, and even preparing detailed comparison tables, empowering users to manage their time more effectively and focus on high-value tasks.
Copilot+ PCs take this further, equipped with NPUs delivering 40 TOPS (Trillion Operations Per Second). This enables advanced AI features such as instant translation, while delivering enhanced speed, performance, battery life, and hybrid functionality across both cloud and local environments.
For enterprises, they also provide an ideal platform to develop and integrate third-party AI applications.
Delaying device renewal can lead to financial and functional losses. By upgrading to new Windows 11 Pro devices, businesses ensure continuity, productivity, and the ability to leverage cutting-edge technology without the apprehension of technical setbacks.
Ronan Smyth, Director CEMA DPS GTM and MEA DPS Sales, notes:
“By 2026, AI-powered PCs are projected to represent half of all Windows PC shipments—signalling a profound shift in enterprise technology strategy. We are no longer anticipating the AI era; we are already operating in it. Copilot+ PCs represent more than just a hardware upgrade—they embody a new philosophy of productivity.
By intelligently managing time and automating routine tasks, they empower professionals to focus on what truly drives value: innovation, decision-making, and execution. In rapidly evolving markets like Saudi Arabia, where digital transformation is accelerating, Copilot+ PCs with Windows 11 Pro are not merely tools—they are strategic enablers. They deliver adaptive performance, enterprise-grade security, and seamless user experiences that help organizations unlock new levels of agility, growth, and competitive advantage.”
