Very interesting indeed. NTLM being consigned to the history books is very welcome news!
Imo these changes are even bigger than in Windows Server 2016. Getting rid of NTLM and implementing Kerberos for local users is a huge upgrade. Same thing with improved SMB I'll definitely migrate to 2025 as soon RTM is available. Can't wait to test it.

I agree. This is the biggest update to Server since Windows Server 2016.
On the day of the announcement, our IT chief said: "They will release Server 2025 soon? It's time to migrate from 2016 to 2022" =D Thanks for the review)

Lol. Life in IT 😅
I'll definitely upgrade the homelab.
This will tempt me to move the business from Server 2019!

You mean a free edition? I don’t believe so.
i just did installation of server 2025 with hyperv and vms. Its way slower than my previous server 2022. I will have to go back to server 2022. What a deception.

Let’s wait for the official release before looking at performance.
No it's not "must have", I genuinely don't have a need for any of these features and don't care either

Fair enough. What would have made you upgrade?
