Microsoft discovered in their latest Work Trend Index Report that 67% of employee respondents still value collaboration with co-workers located both in-office and remotely. Aging PCs, unfortunately, hinder this dynamic collaboration. 

For instance, Windows 10 PCs that are 4+ years old are 6 times more likely to encounter issues—resulting in hundreds of hours lost to sub-optimal productivity and escalating support costs. To avoid costing employees time and your department money, consider integrating Windows 11 into your PC and device ecosystem.
