Transitioning to the new Microsoft Vista operating systems requires IT professionals to build a detailed roll-out plan based on a complete inventory including configuration for end-user and server hardware as well as an in-depth understanding of the ramifications to software, data and the people who use these tools. To build your successful program, read Eracent's newly published white paper.
Ottsville, PA (PRWeb) February 7, 2007 -- On January 29, 2007 Microsoft Corporation announced the commercial availability of the Vista operating system for consumers as well as its corporate customers. As with any new operating system, everyone from the end-user to the corporate CIO have questions and concerns on what they need to know about migrating from their existing operating system to Microsoft Vista. Eracent's research indicates that there are five key areas which IT professionals need to fully investigate before making any changes: 1) the configurations of their entire existing computer inventory, 2) the current inventory of software, 3) data protection and migration, 4) end user training and 5) disposal of now obsolete computing equipment.
Eracent summarized its findings in a free white paper entitled "Moving to Vista - Keys to a Seamless Transition". This document covers how IT professionals can optimally leverage their existing infrastructure, key issues in software migration and re-use, data preservation issues, re-educating end users and points to consider regarding disposal. The whitepaper can be downloaded from the Eracent website Information Center.
