What’s Next After
HoloLens and Microsoft Guides?
A Practical Path Forward for Enterprise AR Programs
< Webinars
An on-demand webinar for organizations planning their next move as HoloLens support winds down. Without losing hard-won AR investments.
Overview
As Microsoft HoloLens approaches end-of-life and the future of Microsoft Guides remains uncertain, many organizations are facing a critical question:
How do we preserve our augmented reality investments, without disruption, rework, or starting from scratch?
In this on-demand webinar, Taqtile’s product, customer success, and sales leaders break down what’s really happening with HoloLens, what it means for existing Guides deployments, and how organizations can confidently plan their next steps.
Rather than speculation, this session focuses on practical migration strategies, real operational requirements, and how AR programs can evolve beyond training into scalable frontline operations.

What Makes This Different
Most discussions around HoloLens end-of-life focus on hardware replacement.
This webinar goes deeper, addressing:
Content continuity
Operational scalability
Data ownership
Security and deployment flexibility
Future device optionality (headsets, tablets, desktops)
You’ll see why many organizations are using this transition moment to expand AR from training into day-to-day operations, rather than simply replacing one tool with another.

Why 2026 Matters for HoloLens and Guides Users
As Microsoft HoloLens approaches its final year of support in 2026, organizations are entering a critical planning window.
For teams running Microsoft Guides today, waiting until end-of-support creates real risks:
Compressed migration timelines
Increased operational disruption
Limited time for content validation and workforce retraining
Organizations that start planning earlier gain flexibility — allowing them to test alternatives, migrate content incrementally, and expand beyond training into operational use cases.
