## Windows 10 Enterprise upgrade
|
||||
|
||||
Windows 10 Enterprise E3 launched in the Cloud Solution Provider (CSP) channel on September 1, 2016. Previously, only organizations with a Microsoft Volume Licensing Agreement could deploy Windows 10 Enterprise to their users. With Windows 10 Enterprise E3 in CSP, small and medium-sized organizations can more easily take advantage of Windows 10 Enterprise features.

||||

||||

## Deployment solutions and tools
|
||||
|
||||
### Upgrade Readiness
|
||||
|
||||
The Upgrade Readiness tool moved from public preview to general availability on March 2, 2017.
|
||||
|
||||
Upgrade Readiness helps you ensure that applications and drivers are ready for a Windows 10 upgrade. The solution provides up-to-date application and driver inventory, information about known issues, troubleshooting guidance, and per-device readiness and tracking details.
|
||||
|
||||
The development of Upgrade Readiness has been heavily influenced by input from the community the development of new features is ongoing. To begin using Upgrade Readiness, add it to an existing Operation Management Suite (OMS) workspace or sign up for a new OMS workspace with the Upgrade Readiness solution enabled.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Update Compliance
|
||||
|
||||
Update Compliance helps you to keep Windows 10 devices in your organization secure and up-to-date.
|
||||
|
||||
Update Compliance is a solution built using OMS Logs and Analytics that provides information about installation status of monthly quality and feature updates. Details are provided about the deployment progress of existing updates and the status of future updates. Information is also provided about devices that might need attention to resolve issues.
|
||||
|
||||
For more information about Update Compliance, see [Monitor Windows Updates with Update Compliance](../manage/update-compliance-monitor.md).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### MBR2GPT
|
||||
|
||||
MBR2GPT.EXE converts a disk from Master Boot Record (MBR) to GUID Partition Table (GPT) partition style without modifying or deleting data on the disk. Previously, it was necessary to image, then wipe and reload a disk to change from MBR format to GPT.
|
||||
|
||||
There are many benefits to converting the partition style of a disk to GPT, including the use of larger disk partitions, added data reliability, and faster boot and shutdown speeds. The GPT format also enables you to use the Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) which replaces the Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) firmware interface. Security features of Windows 10 that require UEFI mode include: Secure Boot, Early Launch Anti-malware (ELAM) driver, Windows Trusted Boot, Measured Boot, Device Guard, Credential Guard, and BitLocker Network Unlock.
|
||||
