Windows 7 adoption rate for IT companies is High – survey suggests
A study carried out by Chadwick Martin Bailey (CMB) suggests that in their survey of 145 IT professionals the majority plan to standardise Windows 7 across their company, here’s how it breaks down:
· 38% plan to roll out Windows 7 on netbooks over the next 2 years
· 51% plan to regulate Windows 7 on Laptops and Desktops
· 60% plan to migrate to Windows Server 2008 R2 in the next 24 months.
It was said by an analyst at CMB that “our data shows remarkably high number of organisations planning to standardise Windows 7 OS in the near-term”. It was also shown in their survey that “those who are holding back are for the time being … staying with XP (rather than Vista)”.
The hype of Windows 7 isn’t tied to adoption in the Workplace, At Amazon UK the Pre-order sales of Windows 7 were so successful that the previous record holder (Harry Potter) was knocked into 2nd place with Windows 7 taking the top spot.
