Here, we share the variation in levels of security, performance and power consumption, financial implications that most of the user are unaware of, we found between genuine and pirated Microsoft software.
Users who install Counterfeit Windows Copy on their machines that slows down their computer so much that it affects the efficiency / productivity drastically apart from this, OS crashes very frequently due to security threats, viruses, Trojans & malwares which forces user to reload OS on every occasion and this adds great losses of expensive manpower which goes unnoticed by the unprofessional users. Moreover, this happens every now and then as pirated OS does not fetch online security updates from Microsoft Server. Adding up the cost of all the these breakdown
Genuine Microsoft users tend to enjoy superior performance in the form of faster boot times, faster print times, faster document loading times, frequent security updates, faster loading times when visiting popular text-and-graphics-heavy websites, and faster intranet page loading times than users of counterfeit products. The reduction in wait time for all of these common tasks adds up to a more dynamic, productive and satisfying experience for users of genuine Microsoft products. In addition to this, failure / OS crashes are reduced to nil which ensures increased output and efficiency.
Comparing both scenarios, one has to understand and calculate the cost in terms of loss of manpower due to frequent break down/crash of windows & other software and the service component involved for every break down recovery in one year. You will realize that this cost is much higher than the One Time Cost of Original Licensed OS. This is just the financial part we shared.
Another sacrifice that counterfeit users may not realize they are making is in energy efficiency. With genuine Microsoft products tend to consume less energy when performing processor-intensive tasks, when in sleep mode, and when coming out of sleep mode than their pirated counterparts, all of which adds up to longer battery life, reduced environmental impact, and lower energy costs for consumers and businesses alike and many more like stress free uninterrupted working, uncompromised secure business operation, continuity etc.
In total, Users of pirated software are prone to security breaches and significant losses in productivity and performance along with financial losses of expensive manpower and professional charges paid towards frequent breakdown recovery.
