Let\u2019s take a look at the most significant developments in the world of operating system adoption this year.<\/p>\n<h2>Windows 10<\/h2>\n<p><em>Currently at 15% &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gosquared.com\/global\/windows\/10\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">View now<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Released on July 29th, Windows 10 was the first OS to be offered for free by Microsoft (as long as you had a genuine copy of windows 7 or 8.1).<\/p>\n<p>Within the first 24 hours Windows 10 made up 3.1% of traffic of all Windows traffic. Within the first 10 days Windows 10 would reached 10% of Windows users (how fitting, 10 10 10).<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/static.gosquared.com\/images\/liquidicity\/15_12_23_globalmetrics2015win10Graph.jpg\" alt=\"GoSquared 2015 Windows 10 Metrics\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Interestingly the majority of upgrades to Windows 10 have come from Windows 8 users. So what about Windows 7?<\/p>\n<p>Windows 7 dominates the install base, averaging around 60%. The release of Windows 10 hasn\u2019t significantly dented this install base. The reason why could be down to the workplace and reluctance\/risk of upgrading. When you dig into the usage you can see the peaks of the working days and the dips during the weekends.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/static.gosquared.com\/images\/liquidicity\/15_12_23_globalmetrics2015win10-1.jpg\" alt=\"GoSquared 2015 Windows 10 Metrics\"\/><\/p>\n<h2>iOS 9<\/h2>\n<p>\n<em>Currently at 73% &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gosquared.com\/global\/ios\/9\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">View now<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Released to the public on September 16th, iOS adoption rates are by far the most impressive of all metrics to watch in real-time.<\/p>\n<p>Before the release the previous OS, iOS 8 was installed on 90% of devices. Within 24 hours that had dropped to 76% and iOS 9 was installed on 17% of devices. The switch as you can see below is truly dramatic.<\/p>\n<p>For comparison, in the first 24 hours of iOS 8 being released it reached 8% of users. To see an install base of 17% within 24 hours for iOS 9 is really quite an achievement.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/static.gosquared.com\/images\/liquidicity\/15_12_23_globalmetrics2015iOS.jpg\" alt=\"GoSquared 2015 iOS Metrics\"\/><\/p>\n<h2>El Capitan<\/h2>\n<p><em>Currently at 35% &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gosquared.com\/global\/mac\/el-capitan\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">View now<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The latest desktop OS by Apple, El Capitan, was released on the 30th September and within the first 24 hours claimed 11% of OS X users.
