Summary:
Deliberately focused on Windows 7 strategy and migration planning, this workshop will allow participants to explore this topic in more depth and come away with agreed best practice solutions for a successful migration.
Unlike its predecessor, which introduced a large number of new features, Windows 7 was intended to be a more focused, incremental upgrade to the Windows line, with the goal of being fully compatible with the same applications and hardware as Windows Vista.
Is the business planning on migrating to Windows 7?
Agenda:
1. Migration Options
- What are the key drivers
- Requirements
2. Migration Timings
- When are you planning to migrate to Win7?
- How long are you allowing for the deployment
3. Migration Implementation - Managing the change in the culture
- Pre-requisite activites
- Have you already assessed your current desktop applications for win7 compatibility?
- What tools did you use and how much testing have you done?
- Do you plan to repackage applications for Win7 using MSI or will you take the opportunity to use application virtualisation tools. If virtualisation tools, which ones and why?
