January 14, 2020 is fast approaching and with it will come the end of Microsoft’s extended support for Windows 7 Professional. Not begun your migration process as yet? Still wondering ‘is it really a necessity?’

Here’s what our ATM Technical Expert Martin had to say about the upcoming changes…

"Think of an upgrade to Windows 10 as an opportunity for improvement. This is the ideal chance to ensure your ATMs maintain compliance, benefit from enhanced security and provide a superior consumer experience.

I’ve heard lots of rumours in the industry about the mounting costs of core upgrades, ATM replacements, service calls, OEM maintenance licenses and estate disruption and downtime. That all seems like a lot of expense rather than investment. At TestLink we can develop a tailored migration plan for your estate that minimises the costs and impact and maximises the benefits”
