The Love-Hate Relationship with Windows: An IT Perspective

, , ,

Here at iFeeltech, we're passionate about technology. We help businesses of all sizes navigate the digital world, which means supporting various operating systems: Windows, macOS, and Linux. It's a challenge, but we're committed to running our clients' systems smoothly.

Lately, though, something's been shifting. Our long-standing relationship with Microsoft Windows?

It's getting complicated. While Windows has been a reliable partner for years, it's starting to feel like that old friend who's become a bit…difficult.

Why the change of heart? Well, the tech landscape is evolving. More and more, we're seeing people spend the majority of their workdays in a web browser. Think about it: email, documents, spreadsheets, even complex business applications—they're all accessible online. This means the operating system itself is becoming less important. While MacOS is stepping up, Windows is falling behind in a big way regarding the overall user experience.
