Hi Ley,
I've had similar issues upgarding to Win 10 with Dell Laptops, and in my case it ended up being hardware related.
It appears that Win 7 had much better disk optimisation than Win 10 and this lead to the upgraded machines running slow suddenly as they were all using hard drives and Win 10 is optimised for solid state drives.
The few machines that already had SSDs were unaffected while the ones with HDDs were practically unusable.
There's no guarantee that this is the exact same issue but it's worth checking the disk use of the affected machines. If the Disk use is consistently stuck at 100% then this could well be the problem.
