Migrate to Windows 11 with ease

Accelerate Access to Windows in the Cloud with IGEL OS

Save time, money, and budget!

IGEL OS is the secure endpoint OS for now and next, proven around the world for its extreme ease of management and operation as well as its cost-effectiveness.

Now that Microsoft has announced end of support for Windows 10 on October 14, 2025, organizations must move their peoples’ endpoint devices to Windows 11 before then. Some organizations have already done so by swapping out devices that are not compatible with new, “beefier” devices that support Windows 11 with required hardware attributes including: The Trusted Program Module (TPM) 2.0 chip, a 1 GHz or faster processor, 4GB RAM or greater, and 64GB or greater available disk space.

Many companies have treated this Windows 11 migration requirement as a “hardware refresh”, swapping in new, costly devices for incompatible (yet still very capable) endpoints that may only be a few years old. For organizations with many non-Windows 11 ready endpoints, the disruption and cost of swapping in compatible devices can be staggering, in the multiple millions of dollars for some companies.

Choose the Easy, Cost-Effective Path to Windows 11

IGEL offers a much simpler, faster, and less costly way to move to Windows 11. Simply move your Windows 10 desktops to the cloud, migrate those cloud-based desktops to Windows 11 in the cloud, and continue to use your existing and still very capable PCs for years, running IGEL OS instead of Windows. Your existing endpoints will still securely access all your existing Windows apps with Windows 11 and all of its new features – in the cloud.

Don’t Let the Clock Run Out on Easy Migration and Big Cost Savings

Mid-October 2025 is quickly approaching. Now is the time to take control and move to Windows 11 on your terms to avoid over-spending on new hardware you don’t need while wasting perfectly good endpoints for no good reason. Your end-users will enjoy a seamless move to all the benefits of Windows 11, your IT team will be greatly relieved of time-consuming device swap-outs, your CFO will love the massive hardware cost avoidance, and the earth will benefit from extending the life of your existing, more efficient endpoints while keeping them out of landfill sites. And finally, your CSO will love the fact that all your endpoints get more secure.

One Secure Endpoint OS – Any Cloud Workspace

IGEL OS and the Enterprise Browser, SaaS, DaaS, and VDI solutions deliver a seamless workspace on any device, built to support the ways people connect, communicate and collaborate in hybrid work.

Preventative Security Model

IGEL OS is designed around a Preventative Security Model™ that removes the attack vectors exploited by bad actors for ransomware and other cyber-attacks. IGEL OS supports Zero Trust approaches to IT security.

  • Read-Only OS

    Users cannot unwittingly, or maliciously, install malware to the endpoint. Organizations reduce the risk of successful phishing, ransomware and other cyber-attacks.

  • No Local Data Storage

    No customer, patient or financial data is stored at the endpoint eliminating possible data breaches from lost or stolen endpoints.

  • Trusted Application Platform

    A secure chain of trust from the hardware through the software ensures that IGEL OS has not been tampered with

  • Modular Design

    By delivering only what is needed at the endpoint, the attack surface is kept to a minimum. The IGEL App Portal enables on demand installation of partner applications.

Endpoint performance, simplicity, security, partnership.

This is why customers choose IGEL.
Here’s what they say…

Simplified Management

IGEL OS simplifies the endpoint footprint reducing the need for additional software agents, extensive testing programs, and long update cycles. The results are greatly reduced endpoint CAPEX, more uptime and better endpoint performance.

  • Centralized Management

    All IGEL OS endpoints are updated centrally within and outside of the network.

  • No Extra Agents

    The Preventative Security Model™ and single point of management removes the need for multiple additional agents saving time and money.

  • No Untimely Reboots

    Background updates and a small endpoint footprint keep workers focussed and productive.

A Key Industry Analyst Perspective

Gabe Knuth, Senior Analyst at ESG, discusses how IGEL OS can significantly decrease the IT endpoint security burden in his recent report, Decreasing the Burden of Endpoint Security with IGEL OS, and how IGEL OS can play a huge role in easing the migration from Windows 10 to Windows 11 in the cloud. Key aspects of the report include:

  • The challenges organizations face with endpoint security
  • How IGEL OS addresses these challenges
  • Why ESG recommends IGEL OS as a strategic solution
  • Future considerations for organizations endpoint strategy

Notably, Gabe mentions the pivotal role IGEL OS plays in enabling a seamless, efficient, and cost-saving Windows 11 migration:

The upgrade to Windows 11 is another opportunity to reconsider your endpoint strategy on a per-endpoint basis. If the use case is one that doesn’t require Windows 11 on the device—and the hardware upgrade to support Windows 11—it might make more sense to repurpose the hardware with IGEL OS.
