2025 will see Soltech IT continue to donate IT equipment to school's throughout the Southwest as part of our 'Giving Back To Schools' donation campaign.
We were delighted to be able to donate more than £15,000 of 65" and 75" Promethean ActivPanel Touchscreens to six local schools and MAT's.
Gareth Jones, commented "As a business it's great to be able to give something back to schools, be they a customer or not. Our most recent donations have helped transform the learning environments of pupils which is something we are very proud of."
These most recent donations have not only included a 65" or 75" Promethean ActivPanel Touchscreen, the schools have also received WiFi module upgrades, Android functionality, wall mounting brackets and relevant cables, plus delivery, removal / WEEE disposal of old equipment, installation and training, all as part of Soltech IT's donation.
That's around a £3,000 donation at each school or MAT.
Continue using Windows 10 safely and securely will come at a cost
Like millions of users, many of us do not want to discard Windows 10 from our PC’s or laptops, however, be warned.
When this aging operating system comes to an end it will be over 9 years since it’s release and it will leave us all facing subscription fees to continue using it safely and securely.
2025 will see the end of life for Windows 10's. This means the end of Microsoft pushing out brand new features and vital security updates that every user of Windows 10 needs to ensure security of data, secure financial transactions, and much more.
Without these security updates organisations will potentially breach regulations such as GDPR and safeguarding, whilst many business insurance policies will become invalidated leaving those responsible financial liable, or liable to legal action in some cases.
Microsoft’s Windows 10 is without doubt the most used operating system throughout the world, which is why Microsoft will be providing Windows 10 users the opportunity to carry on using the operating system for those of us who are prepared to pay an annual subscription, that it rumoured to double in price each year.
That’s good news, but it’s likely in most cases to be cheaper for a Windows 10 user to purchase a new Windows 11 device, if their current device is not compatible with the free Windows 11 upgrade.
With the clock ticking, now is the time to start the process of upgrading your systems to Windows 11.
