According to a new report from SolarWinds, operating system migration remains a major headache for organisations.
In this respect, IT decision makers are stuck between a rock and a hard place.

According to the report, almost four in five IT professionals (78 per cent) experience compatibility issues when migrating to a newer operating system.
Other struggles include downtime and disruption, the cost of migration, other priorities, underestimating the consequences of not migrating, lack of proper hardware and complexity issues.

Although it’s “heartening” to see most businesses migrate, compatibility issues are still “troublesome," according to Tim Brown, VP of Security at SolarWinds.

“It’s vital that these issues don’t leave parts of the business behind and at risk. However, these periods of migration when an OS is reaching EOL are the ideal time to review applications in use, and audit these to improve the security of the environment,” he added.
