Windows 10 Mobile is now available as an upgrade for Windows Phone users.
You may just have spotted the rush of stories. However, while there’s a natural urge to upgrade, some folk may want to hold off.
Microsoft has a long list of features that don’t work with the new OS, that do on the older versions.
Features removed, non-functional, or not yet added include:
#-Notifications for missed calls, messages, and emails on contact tiles are not supported at the time of Windows 10 Mobile release.
#-Me Tile and Me Card are no longer supported.
#-Cortana can no longer search for apps, setting, email, text messaging, contacts and QR Codes on the device and can no longer open apps through voice commands.
#-“Hey Cortana” is no longer available on some upgraded devices.
#-Group tiles can no longer be used to receive social networking status updates.
#-Indoor Maps are no longer available for some locations.
#-Certain enterprise features, including Data Protection Under Lock, are not available; please contact your Microsoft Volume Licensing representative for more information.
#-At time of Windows 10 Mobile release Outlook Mail app cannot open .EML attachments.
#-Outlook Calendar app does not support Tasks.
#-MDM capability to prevent saving and sharing Office documents not supported.
Of course, this situation is fluid and could change as future upgrades arrive. However, for those reliant on Exchange, permissions and MDM, the future may not look quite so rosy right now.
IT departments will certainly be taking a hard look at the upgrade, as it break some data protection systems.
