Windows 11 Upgrade Audit

A Windows 11 Upgrade Audit helps you understand which devices are compatible with Windows 11, which may require upgrades and which may need replacing. It provides a clear picture of your current environment and helps you plan your next steps with confidence.

Microsoft ended support for Windows 10 on 14th October 2025. Devices running Windows 10 no longer receive standard security updates, bug fixes or technical support, increasing security and compliance risks for businesses that continue to use the operating system.

Windows 11 has specific hardware requirements, including TPM 2.0, Secure Boot support and compatible processors. Our audit checks every device in your business and identifies which systems can be upgraded and which may require replacement.

Not necessarily. Many devices can be upgraded to Windows 11 without replacement. The audit identifies which systems are suitable for upgrade and which devices may be approaching the end of their useful life.

Yes. We review your business-critical applications and software to identify any compatibility issues that could affect a Windows 11 migration, helping to minimise disruption during the upgrade process.

Yes. In many cases, the audit can be completed remotely. Where required, we can also visit your premises to assess devices, infrastructure and software in more detail.

Yes. Following the audit, you receive a clear report outlining compatibility findings, potential risks, hardware recommendations and a practical upgrade roadmap tailored to your business.

No. The audit is completely free and comes with no obligation. You are free to use the recommendations however you choose, whether you implement them internally, work with another provider or ask ABS to assist with the project.

Yes. If replacement devices are required, we can recommend and supply suitable business PCs, laptops and related hardware. Flexible purchase and leasing options are available to suit different budgets.

The timescale depends on the size and complexity of your IT environment. Most audits can be completed quickly, with findings and recommendations provided shortly afterwards.

Windows 11 requires a compatible 64-bit processor, TPM 2.0, Secure Boot capability, at least 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage. However, compatibility can vary between devices, which is why a full audit is often the quickest way to determine upgrade readiness across a business.
