The State of Windows 7 Satisfaction

Early adopters tell us they're mostly happy--Vista users even more so than XP ones.

By  |  Monday, November 30, 2009 at 12:41 am

Comparing and Contrasting

Just to give the survey respondents even more ways to express their overall take on Windows 7, we asked them to measure it against other operating systems they’re familiar with. A plurality of them have come to Windows 7 from Vista, and their consensus is that it’s a major step forward. Almost two-thirds say it’s much better than Vista, ninety-four percent think it’s at least somewhat better, and only three percent rate it about the same. Just one percent deem it somewhat worse than Vista…and nobody says it’s much worse.

Windows XP is a far better-liked OS than Vista ever was, and its popularity seems to be reflected in our responses: Slightly fewer survey-takers give Win 7 a thumbs up compared to XP than compared to Vista, and slightly more say it’s a step backwards. Overall, though, the positive feedback for Win 7 is still huge.

The “Windows or Mac?” question is one of tech’s longest-running, most unsolvable debates. Still, we asked respondents who were familiar with Mac OS 10.6 Snow Leopard to compare it and Windows 7. The results were pretty much a wash: Roughly one-third think Windows 7 is better than Snow Leopard, a third think the two OSes are about the same, and a third think Snow Leopard is better. (We asked separately about OS X 10.5 Leopard, and got a similar response.)

We also asked respondents how Windows 7 compares to any version of Linux that they’re familiar with. Yes, that’s comparing a very specific product with a broad class of operating systems–it’s a little like asking whether whether they prefer Ben & Jerry Cherry Garcia ice cream, or cake. But for what it’s worth, more than two-thirds of the survey-takers say that Windows 7 is better than Linux.

One side note: In our screening for the survey, we verified that would-be respondents were running Windows 7. We asked those who said they weren’t using the new OS what the primary factor holding them back was. Twenty-nine percent say it’s because they’re happy with Windows XP. (By contrast, only four percent of users told us they aren’t moving to Windows 7 because they’re pleased with Windows Vista.) Sixteen percent of holdouts say Windows 7 is too pricey.

    I’m getting ready to take the W7 plunge in three weeks. I was one that upgraded to XP from Vista. I found this article a surprisingly rare occurrence. Now days authors and the news media spit stats with out documenting the facts of how many people, and all the circumstances involved. The article was precise, revealing, unjaundiced.
    Very refreshing and informative. Thanks.

    Upgraded from XP, Win7 runs smoothly.

    Losing all apps would be a critical problem, but used Zinstall to fix it.

    Harry, I think you should address this issue somehow – people are losing their stuff when upgrading from XP to 7, they need to know how to fix it (and in a better way than Easy Transfer)

    I am still a very satisfied 7-user. Thing even became better!

    Previously I mentioned device stage stopped working for me when I switched from the RC to the retail version, but now it’s up and running again!

    Its only useful for my camera and my mouse really(so in essence I only use device stage when importing pictures cause how often does one configure his mouse? ;)), but hey, at least I don’t get the generic icons anymore! It actually shows the actual picture of my devices 🙂

    I really enjoy Win 7 Ultimate so far, I am a long time Apple/Mac user (since 84) and due to some unfortunate circumstance I ended up being a PC user and really, I am quite happy. I didn’t enjoy Vista so much but since upgrading to 7, I am a happy happy camper. It’s stable, responsive, enjoyable to use, my workflow remains constant and I have had no issues with software or my local development environment. MS did a really nice job this time around and I have not been so comfortable with windows since XP Pro.

    I’m a Mac user and had installed Windows 7 Ultimate on both of my Macs under Parallels Desktop 5. Windows 7 is a breeze to install and his a very nice interface. I’ve had no problems with it. All the applications I’d been using still worked. Microsoft Office 2007 and some video converter programs I use run flawlessly. Windows 7 runs relatively fast and certainly faster than Vista Ultimate. I’m still using Windows XP Pro in BootCamp since full support for Windows 7 isn’t ready yet.

    I don’t see any reasons for XP users not to move to Windows 7 when they get new computers. However, I would recommend them to stay with Windows XP until that time unless they have relatively new computers. I don’t see any real incentive to upgrade from Windows XP to Windows 7. If you’ve used Windows XP for five plus years, it won’t hurt to wait another year until you’re ready to change.

    On my desktop (Dell) machine, I inherited one problem from the previous Win 7 Beta install, after clean install with Windows Easy Transfer. Flash caused crashing (either when a tab containing flash was closed or when a tab containing flash was scrolled). Thanks to Ed Bott, the solution was to remove Flash (using Adobe’s flash remover), “reset” IE 8 (Tools->Internet Options->Advanced->Reset… and check the optional part. Restart Windows, install Flash (unfortunately). All was well. The IE 8 reset was critical–I had already done the Flash uninstall/reinstall cycle.

    HP was a bit late with software and drivers for my Photosmart 2575, but it’s working well now (scanning was not possible until a recent update). But HP was also late to the party with Snow Leopard drivers and software for the 2575…OK now.

    And Setup froze the machine (leading to forced power down). That happened when I asked setup to join a Homegroup whose creating machine was no longer on the network (and no longer exists–it’s become a Linux machine). A restart went through setup just fine (skipping the Homegroup setup).

    The Setup crash started me off with a reliability index of 9; the Flash problem dropped it to the bottom in one day. The Flash/IE8 fix has allowed it to return to the top.

    Happy.

    My other Win 7 machine (the survey only allowed for one) is a new Sony Viao laptop (mid-range). Smooth and happy.

    Oh, and “beloved XP”? Not here. Hated XP and all prior versions (and didn’t run Windows much).

    Am I reading these figures right? About 1/3 of those surveyed said they were having problems with “Applications that won’t run”.

    Are there more details about what apps don’t work? I’d be very curious to find out about that. Are they older versions that require an upgrade? Is that upgrade free?

    I know there was a little stink about 100 or so apps for 10.6 that would not run. Mostly old versions and silly little software programs. Is this the same thing for Win 7?

    As I am currently running Vista, I decided to wait for the reactions of the early adopters.
    Two years ago I ran out and brought Vista and became one of the guinea pigs.
    This time I’ll take my time and purchase Win 7 when I’m damn good and ready. Hah!

    At the risk of incurring the wrath of Mac people, I am running Windows 7 Professional N (I have TechNet Account) on my MacMini, and there was almost no issue with drivers. I don’t think I have booted in OS X for two or three weeks now. It is running like a top on the Mac mini.

    I’ve installed Win7 on no less then four different computers. One was a clean install and the others were upgrades. I didn’t have problems with any of the installs. And there hasn’t been any issues on any of the machines either. Best. Upgrade. Ever.

    I suggest to my XP friends to either move their xp hard drives to an external drive and install 7 on a pristine drive then move their files over. It will in the long run be easier.

    “Those suckers that bought Vista Ultimate, myself included, are screwed,” said yet another commenter. “There isn’t a chance in hell that I am paying $219 for what should really be Vista SP2. We were promised ‘extras’ which we never got, now we are being excluded from the pre-order special. Anyway even at $49, it is still too much to pay.”

    The extras that commenter mentioned refer to “Ultimate Extras,” one of the main features Microsoft cited in the months leading up to the 2007 release of Vista Ultimate to distinguish the operating system from its lower-priced siblings. According to Microsoft’s marketing, Extras were to be “cutting-edge programs, innovative services and unique publications” that would be regularly offered only to users of Vista’s highest-priced edition.

    But users soon began belittling the paltry number of add-ons Microsoft released and the company’s leisurely pace at providing them. Just five months after Vista was launched, critics started to complain.

    Earlier this year, Microsoft dumped the feature, saying that it would instead focus on existing features in Windows 7 rather than again promise extras.

    The furor over Vista Ultimate has even reached analysts’ ranks. In May, Michael Cherry of Directions on Microsoft urged Microsoft to give Vista Ultimate owners a free upgrade to Windows 7. “It would buy them a lot of good will, and I don’t think it would cost them much,” Cherry said at the time.

    Some of the commenters in the latest Computerworld stories about Windows 7 echoed Cherry.

    “I am running Vista Ultimate and feel ripped off by Microsoft because … [we] never received the extras we paid good money to get,” said “Hellfire” in a long comment. “The very least that they should do is offer a heavily-discounted upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate to those that have lost money by purchasing Vista Ultimate.”

    I agree with all the good things that have been said about Windows 7 with the very big exception of graphics, particularly the ability of older hardware/software to create the “Aero Experience”.

    I easily upgraded my older Dell Dimension 3100 with an add-in Nvidia graphics card, but debugging problems with Windows desktop rendering is an exercise in finger-pointing between Microsoft and Nvidia.

    I blame Microsoft for their inability to even describe the “Aero Experience”, much less control it. Did you know you could disable transparent borders without disabling taskbar preview and window animations? Well, you can, but it ain’t easy to find the checkbox. Thanks, Microsoft.

    I blame Nivida because their drivers don’t even run Vista Aero Experience properly, much less deal with the newer Windows 7. When you try to find out from Nvidia what to do to fix the problems, they point fingers at everyone else; Microsoft, Dell, the Weather Channel, …

    Is GUI glitz important? Not really, except when your system locks up hard and you have to hold the power button to shut down. In 2009, I have to hold down the power button to recover from a graphics software failure. Shame on Microsoft and Nividia. Windows 7 should tell me exactly what to do to avoid further crashes by disabling the most stressful features of Aero.

    I ordered a compatible ATI/AMD graphics card, so I’ll soon know whether to blame ATI about a bad Aero experience.

    With brand-new hardware and the option of Windows 7 64-bit, perhaps none of these problems occur. But I researched upgrading my old Dell and did everything I could to avoid these problems to no avail.

    excuse me kent, but this is complete bullocks
    When you go to desktop preferences, clearly the place to change desktop appearance, you get this: http://i49.tinypic.com/332xbme.jpg
    I don’t think it takes a genius to figure you have to click “window clolour” (vensterkleur in my Dutch install) to change the way windows look.
    Then, you get this screen: http://i46.tinypic.com/25jl4ex.jpg
    It has one checkbox. Saying it will disable/enable window transparency.

    Starting from an empty desktop, unchecking the checkbox takes 4 clicks. So yes Kent, I think changing this setting IS easy 😉

    @Kent When I used to use a Mac I longed for a away to turn off the pointless effects that at the time pushed the G3/G4 to its limits.
    Microsoft thankfully to its credit does listen to users, and so can you can turn off Aero as stated above. In fact you can make Windows 7 look pretty much like Windows 2000 if you really want to.

    I was impressed how smoothly the RC ran on 2003-class hardware. Installation was pretty easy though sound drivers took some time to magically appear. Since then, that hardware has died and I haven’t replaced it, yet. That was not a critical machine. I’m unsure whether I’ll upgrade machines I use more often, currently running XP and Vista, to Win 7. I’ll probably wait until its time to build a new PC.

    Two Vista Machines were converted from Vista (one, Home Pro, the other Ultimate) to Win 7 Ultimate and a third Win 7 Home Premium machine was purchased. The two converted computers each had a clean installation. Prior to installation, I formated their harddrives. There were absolutely no problems in installation. All Drivers worked perfectly.

    The newly purchased machine, had no problems out of the box. I did have to transfer my wife’s documents, her settings, and install her software from her previous desktop computer, which I had decided to retire. The only major change I had to make was to add Thunderbird (in place of Windows Mail, which is not available for Win 7). After training her to use Thunderbird, she has noticed no problems, at least regarding the OS change. She is not an advanced computer user and simply wants it to respond properly when she is using the internet, email, and word processing. The one thing she has noticed is that the computer is more reliable, has fewer problems, and is much, much quicker, even with a similar CPU and amount of memory.

I purchased the $49 upgrade from TD and love it. I have absolutely no regrets that I did. NO driver issues. Even for my OLD HP 707 camera that came with my old laptop. My printer and all included with my old XP machine work great. Only my video IM camera wont work with 7. But hey… I got that when 98 was around. What should I expect. lol. FINALLY Microsoft.

    Having migrated to Windows 7 from XP Pro, I like the apparent stability of Windows 7 since it’s release; just hope it holds-out for awhile. It seems to be a “smarter” OS and not as glitchy as other MS products. However, I really miss XP’s search function. What happened to the quick and easy way to find any document or any file across multiple hard drives? That little puppy was really good at doing that. I am surprised that MS would discard essential functionality in their newest product. Windows 7 “Search” simply does not appear to exist. I hope MS will consider rescuing that cute little puppy, take it out of the pound, and bring it back very soon.

    I have an ASUS X83VM-X1 purchased from BestBuy. After installing Windows 7 I found some basic motherboard drivers missing and unsupported. I managed to locate and download all the drivers I needed and things looked good for a couple of days, then the system began bluescreening. I had enough and uninstalled it! It will not be going on my laptop again.

    I think it may work well on some systems but expect it will cause problems and not be fully compatible with some hardware and software.

    Therefore as it stands right now, I don’t like it and I don’t need it.

    I have upgraded from Windows XP directly to Windows 7 and like a few others had to reinstall my favorite programs, However, I have found no real compatibility issues with 99% of the programs I use. Windows 7 has an XP compatibility program built into it that is very effective, unlike Vista did.(My wife’s laptop computer runs Vista.)My Nero 9 installed flawlessly and works perfectly. If you are ever needing a deeper analysis of your computer there are several free programs you can use to give you detailed information of what hardware and software is installed, Most of these programs will also verify any Windows updates you have installed to see if they are correctly installed. So far I have immensely enjoyed using Windows 7

    I am still using XP but know it is too old to stay with indefinitely. Paying attention to the user reviews I am still holding off because apart from the described glitches & bumps I have to say the cost of Win7 just irritates me. MS has once again offered a too basic ‘Cheap Seats’ $ version, a ‘Better’ $$ version with features everyone wants & then the Big Kahuna $$$ version. All three are just too damned expensive.

    I did a clean, full install of Windows 7 a couple of weeks ago. So far, I’ve enjoyed the layout and find it relatively easy to use. My two major problems are the amount of updates I’ve already had to download and Windows 7 doesn’t support my Creative Labs Xi-Fi Sound card and Creatives provided driver updates don’t work to fix it. So I have a working computer without sound. What Sound cards are Window 7 ready?

    I have two newish, very similar HP laptops. One came with Vista and a free upgrade to 7, the other came with Windows 7.

    I took the upgrade path using the HP-supplied OS and driver upgrade kit, to install 7 on the Vista machine. If I had it to do over, I would have used a clean install. I have had absolutely no compatibility issues with the machine that came with Windows 7, but I’m still having annoyances with the upgraded machine. Some software, even HPs own media software, is still hanging on the upgraded laptop, while everything is smooth as butter on the other. Both machines are loaded with the same software.

    I have updated all of the drivers on the previously Vista machine, but it still has performance problems. I’ve decided to re-do the Windows 7 as a clean install, as I believe that the upgrade method is what is causing me grief.

    Windows 7 has very few challenged components but there are some. Unfortunately they are also very major issues. (note googling for these issues will reveal much). I’m familiar with the 64 bit version so I cannot say 32 bit versions have the same problems.

    1. No email client included in installation. Extremely odd for a “net aware” OS. I suspect because the email client had/has issues. There’s even the directory where “vista” used to keep it, but it’s not there! Sure you can download “Live Mail” and it “might” work. After a couple hours playing with “Live Mail” I pitched it (no uninstaller??) and went for Mozilla’s excellent Thunderbird.

    2. Mouse and general USB issues. This is hit or miss and potentially a deal breaker. Since Windows is a mouse driven interface, a mouse that doesn’t work or stutters and freezes is a disaster. Also reported are other USB components which fail such as network adapters and hard drives. Even microsoft’s own products may have persistent, intermittent problems. There are nearly as many attempts at solutions as there are reports. These reports have been coming in since pre-release and are not corrected yet. This does not bode well. Alas, there’s no 3rd party to come to the rescue as in the case of email so if you have trouble, you’re probably stuck.

    Built a new rig and installed Windows 7. I thought it would be something worthy, but it starts with a very cheesy interface. Then it has lots of compatibility issues, even with my brand new HD 6870 Sapphire, and I had to reinstall Windows three times due to problems with my sound card. What a nightmare it has been. If you use your computer just for surf the web, it may do the trick, but if you are a heavy user and rely on high end software, beware. The day Apple releases an operational system to rival Microsoft in the PC market we are going to see Microsoft filing for bankruptcy in no time. If I could, I would sue Microsoft for all the hours I lost trying to make it work.
