Windows to Android Migration

Kestronics helps organisations transition from legacy Windows CE, Windows Mobile and Windows 10 Mobile devices to secure, modern Android Enterprise platforms. We deliver structured migration programmes that minimise disruption, modernise workflows and ensure long-term supportability across operational environments.

What We Cover

Assessment & Migration Planning

• Discovery and analysis of your existing Windows handhelds, applications and infrastructure
• Identification of security vulnerabilities arising from unsupported Windows OS versions
• Roadmap creation covering applications, devices, wireless, security and integration points
• Pilot strategies and phased migration plans to reduce operational risk

Application Migration & Modernisation

• Migration of Windows CE / Mobile applications to Android (native, web or hybrid)
• Integration with modern scanning frameworks, OEM SDKs and enterprise mobility tools
• UI/UX modernisation for faster, more accurate frontline workflows
• Functional and operational validation before rollout at scale

Device Selection & Android Hardware Deployment

• Assessment and recommendation of Android devices from leading enterprise manufacturers
• Peripheral setup including printers, scanners, cradles, mounts and wireless accessories
• Staging, enrolment and configuration using Android Enterprise standards
• Rollout support across multi-site and international environments

MDM Migration & Android Enterprise Setup

• Creation of Android policies, app restrictions, compliance rules and automation workflows
• Support for major MDM/UEM platforms including SOTI, Microsoft Intune, VMware Workspace ONE, 42Gears and Samsung Knox
• Deployment of standardised Gold Builds to ensure consistent, secure configurations

Enhanced Security with Android Enterprise

• Hardware-backed encryption and secure boot technologies unavailable on legacy Windows devices
• Regular Google security patches and OEM updates via Extended Life Support programmes
• Zero-touch enrolment and enforced compliance policies to prevent misconfiguration
• Separation of work and personal data (COPE/Work Profile) for improved governance and privacy

Operational Readiness & Onsite Services

• User training, floor-walking and hypercare during early life
• End-to-end testing of apps, wireless performance and backend integrations
• Full documentation and operational handover for service desk and IT teams
• Support for adoption, change management and process redesign

Why This Migration Matters

Windows CE and Windows Mobile platforms are end-of-life, lack security updates and expose organisations to growing vulnerabilities including unsupported encryption, outdated authentication methods and exploitable system components. Android Enterprise provides a secure, modern, fully supported platform that reduces risk, improves performance and ensures long-term compatibility with enterprise mobility tools.
