Yes, you can upgrade compatible Windows 7 PCs based on these requirements with a full license. But to take advantage of the latest hardware capabilities, we recommend moving to a new Lenovo PC with Windows 10.
Yes, you can continue to use Windows 7. But support for Windows ended on January 14, 2020. This means Windows will operate but you will not receive security and feature updates anymore, which makes your PC more vulnerable to security risks.
Windows 7 can still be installed and activated after support has ended. However, to avoid security risks and viruses, Microsoft recommends that you consider upgrading to modern devices with Windows 10.
Internet Explorer is a component of the Windows operating system, which means support for Internet Explorer on Windows 7 devices also ended on January 14, 2020.
A virtualization solution might be appropriate for your organization, Windows Virtual Desktop is the only cloud-based service that delivers a multi-user Windows 10 experience, optimized for Office 365 ProPlus, and includes free Windows 7 Extended Security Updates. These Extended Security Updates can also be purchased separately, as a last resort option for Windows 7 (and Windows Server 2008/R2 and SQL Server 2008/R2) organizations who require more time to shift to Windows 10.
Extended Security Updates have been available for purchase in VLSC since April 1, 2019. Extended Security Updates will be available for purchase via the cloud solution provider (CSP) program starting December 1, 2019.
ESU is recommended as a last resort for the devices that cannot be migrated to Windows 10 in time. The Windows 7 ESU will be sold on a per-device basis with the price increasing each year through to January 2023.
To enjoy the latest security, productivity and manageability features that Windows 10 offers with regular updates and supports, we recommend your organization switch to modern Lenovo devices with added ThinkShield Protection.
You can continue to use Office 2010, but once support ends in October 2020, your PC will become more vulnerable to security risks. Office will continue to operate but you will stop receiving security and feature updates.
The simple answer is right now. There's never been a better time to evaluate your technology strategy and see how your business can benefit from the latest solutions in Office 2019 and Office 365, and if you make the switch before the end of support date, you'll get a seamless transition to a more modern way of working, on modern devices from Lenovo.
Connections to Office 365 services such as Exchange Online will not be supported after October 1, 2020. Customers should upgrade to an Office 365 plan that has the Office desktop apps to prevent any loss of productivity.
Office 2019 is the most current, up-to-date non-subscription version-it enables employees to do more by providing new intelligent tools and features, enabling best-in-class productivity while helping you stay protected and compliant with relevant regulations.
Office 2019 is the most secure perpetual version to date. Security features include Windows Information Protection (WIP), a Windows Pro feature that integrates with Office 2019 applications. On-premises versions of Office, including Office 2019, do not include all of the intelligent security features Microsoft has to offer. Users looking for Microsoft's complete suite of intelligent security features should consider choosing Office 365 Business Premium or Microsoft 365 subscriptions.
Plus, making the shift to Lenovo devices also gives you Lenovo added ThinkShield Protection, a suite of Windows 10 compatible hardware and software features, including encryption, high-end biometrics, authenticators, remote maintenance and other secure features.
With Office 365 subscription plans you can create your best work with the premium versions of the Office applications on your Lenovo devices: Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Publisher, Access (Publisher and Access are available on PC only) as well as access to additional OneNote features (features vary). In addition, with Office 365 you get services like cloud storage with OneDrive, Skype minutes for home use, and advanced Outlook.com security. When you have an active Office 365 subscription, you always have the most up-to-date version of the Office applications.
Office 2019 is a one-time purchase with the classic versions of the Office applications such as Word, Excel, and PowerPoint for use on a single PC. The applications are not automatically updated; to get the latest version, you must purchase Office again when the new version becomes available. Current Office application versions available for one-time purchase are Office 2019 for Windows and Office 2019 for Mac. Previous versions include Office 2016, Office 2013, Office 2011 for Mac, Office 2010, Office 2007, Office 2008 for Mac, and Office 2004 for Mac. Office as a one-time purchase does not include any of the services included in Office 365.
You don't need to be online to use Office after it is installed and activated on your devices. However, you will need internet access initially to install and activate Office, to install any updates, and to manage your billing. Internet access is also required to access documents stored on OneDrive, unless you install the OneDrive desktop app. However, after your Office applications (like Word, PowerPoint, and Excel) are installed, you can use them offline.
You should connect to the Internet regularly to keep your version of Office up to date and benefit from automatic upgrades. If you don't connect to the Internet at least every 39 days, your applications will go into reduced functionality mode, and you might see an unlicensed product error. To reactivate your Office applications, simply reconnect to the Internet and sign in to Office 365. Learn how to sign in.

6 Software and workloads used in performance tests may have been optimized for performance only on Intel microprocessors. Performance tests, such as SYSmark and MobileMark, are measured using specific computer systems, components, software, operations and functions. Any change to any of those factors may cause the results to vary. You should consult other information and performance tests to assist you in fully evaluating your contemplated purchases, including the performance of that product when combined with other products. For more complete information visit www.intel.com/benchmarks. The benchmark results reported above may need to be revised as additional testing is conducted. The results depend on the specific platform configurations and workloads utilized in the testing, and may not be applicable to any particular user's components, computer system or workloads. The results are not necessarily representative of other benchmarks and other benchmark results may show greater or lesser impact from mitigations.
