With the clock ticking toward the end of Windows XP support in
April 2014, and in response to customer need, Dell Services
announced today the addition of Windows Migration Fast Forward
Service to its robust set of migration services. Dell’s Windows
Migration Fast Forward Service helps customers jump-start a new
migration or fast-forward one already in progress with unique tools
and proven practices to ensure readiness. This, in addition to
migration solutions from Dell Software, provides for a smoother,
more cost-effective migration to enable users to benefit more
quickly from state-of-the-art feature rich application suites.
As the 2012 and 2013 U.S. Windows Deployment Partner of the Year
and the 2013 U.S. Windows Partner of the Year, Dell Services
deploys more than a million enterprise-class Windows 7 and Windows
8 devices in over 150 countries each year. Dell’s team of IT
experts simplifies the path to migration with services that deliver
application, hardware and deployment readiness. Dell’s Windows
Migration Fast Forward Service offers pre-packaged modules to
address all stages in the Windows migration process for up to 5,000
PCs including: image engineering, inventory and rationalization of
applications, application compatibility testing, application
packaging, deployment planning, process automation and field
deployment. This gives customers the flexibility to choose the
package of services that best fits their needs while streamlining
the process to save time and money.
“Dell Services brings to market a comprehensive approach to the
XP Migration challenge from addressing the critical application
requirements in the new operating system while also achieving
significant ROI on deployment activities for its customers,” said
Ali Zaidi, Worldwide and U.S. IT Consulting & Systems
Integration Services Research Lead, IDC. “Microsoft
continues to recognize their abilities with awards earned in 2012
and 2013 for Windows Deployment. The latest set of offerings to
help customers fast forward their existing migrations will give
customers the needed boost to finish their projects on time.”
As a global leader in IT services, Dell has worked across all
industries to facilitate migration. Some examples include, the
German tourism company TUIfly, Tulsa Community College and the
major Australian retail chain Coles. For organizations that require
more complex solutions, Dell’s Windows Migration Services provide a
comprehensive range of options to develop and execute a migration
strategy tailored to their specific needs. IT departments that
partner with Dell’s team of Windows migration experts minimize IT
resource strain and software licensing costs while maximizing
management software investments and end-user experience.
“About 21 percent1 of PCs are still running Windows XP. This is
an industry-wide issue that many of our customers are dealing with
right now,” says Kevin Jones, Vice President and General
Manager, Infrastructure and Cloud Computing Services. “Our goal
is to provide organizations of all sizes with an efficient
migration solution. The Windows Migration Fast Forward Service adds
to Dell’s complete suite of migration offerings that make upgrading
to Windows 7 or Windows 8 fast, simple and affordable.”
Dell also offers a full suite of Windows 7 and Windows 8
compatible devices, including the recently unveiled Latitude 7000
Series Ultrabooks, Latitude 5000 Series and Latitude 3000 Series
laptops and the newly launched Dell Venue 8 Pro and Dell Venue 11
Pro Windows 8.1-based tablets. With this new suite of laptops and
tablets, Dell balances sophisticated design, quality construction
and uncompromised durability to offer businesses of all sizes a
wide variety of laptops with both Windows 7 and Windows 8 touch
display options and tablet options that integrate easily into an
existing corporate environment with full compatibility with current
Windows applications and Microsoft Office integration.
By taking a holistic approach, Dell Services develops a total
solution to deploy, integrate and support Windows 7 or Windows 8.
Dell’s end-to-end expertise addresses Windows migration from the
data center to the end point, empowering customers to innovate
their IT environments with ease.
