​Microsoft’s beloved POS Ready 2009’s End of Life has been announced by Microsoft for April 2019. Aldelo will not be able to service customers using this OS after this date.

For merchants using this operating system this has some critical issues that they will need to address.
  1. Since they will no longer be able to receive critical security patches, this will leave their computers open for cyber-attacks, Viruses, trojans and root kits that all can cause serious breaches in their security of customer data.
  2.  Customer using this operating system will no longer be able to get support from Microsoft.
  3. New security certificates may not be available for this OS soon and this may impact the merchant’s ability to process credit cards as they may not be able to make a secure connection with the merchant processors gateway.
  4. Vendors such as Aldelo, LogmeIn, Intuit and more have already announced the end of life support for this OS and customers using this operating system will be asked to update before support teams can provide assistance.

Merchants have a few choices to make.  They can update to a new OS that may or may not work with there current hardware and should check with the hardware vendor to be sure that a new, supported operating system will work for them before installing.

Customers using Aldelo POS may want to look at moving to Aldelo Express.  Especially if they are faced with needing to purchase new hardware.  Since Aldelo Express is an iPad based POS, the hardware for this is much cheaper then a traditional All In One unit and much of there printers and other peripheral hardware maybe compatible.  Even better they maybe able to move to this product with little setup time as the basic setup data from Aldelo POS can be migrated to the Aldelo Express very quickly. (Call our Sales team for details 877-639-8767).

More over the update that many customers may be require to have for a new OS are FREE with the Aldelo Express!
