Server OS Upgrades
Running an Outdated Server OS Is a Security Risk. Let's Fix That.
End-of-life server operating systems stop receiving security patches — which means every new vulnerability discovered goes unaddressed on your servers indefinitely. Centrix plans and executes server OS upgrades with minimal disruption to your operation.
Why This Matters More Than People Think
When Microsoft ends support for a server operating system, it stops releasing security patches. That means every vulnerability discovered after that date stays open. Forever. On your servers. Running your dispatch software.
Attackers know the end-of-life dates for server operating systems. They target companies still running them because they know the vulnerabilities are unpatched. In a concrete or aggregate operation, your servers are running dispatch, batching, ticketing, and accounting. These are not systems you can afford to have compromised.
Our Upgrade Process
Assessment
We inventory your servers, identify operating systems, and flag any that are end-of-life.
Planning
We develop a detailed upgrade plan that minimizes disruption to your business.
Execution
We perform the upgrade during off-peak hours to minimize downtime.
Testing
We test the upgraded systems to ensure they are working properly.
Monitoring
We monitor the upgraded systems to ensure they remain stable and secure.
Part of a Broader Maintenance Picture
Server OS upgrades don't happen in isolation — they're part of keeping your infrastructure current, secure, and supported. Command Alkon server compatibility is verified before any upgrade begins. Our managed IT services include ongoing server monitoring, and a free cybersecurity threat assessment will tell you where your servers stand today. We pair upgrades with Sophos security deployment, coordinate with your LAN and WAN network infrastructure, and work alongside workstation and hardware support for a complete refresh when needed.
