What is Hosted Desktop?

Hosted Desktop

A Hosted Desktop, much like the name suggests, is a virtual desktop that is hosted in the cloud. In essence as Hosted Desktop stores your operating system, applications and your documents which can be accessed over the internet on any device. To the User, a hosted virtual desktop looks no different to a traditional physical desktop. The difference lies in where the Data and Apps are stored. Whilst a physical desktop accesses and stores your data on the actual device, a Hosted Desktop stores everything on a secure server.

Case Study

One Accounting firm had issues with their previous setup because as they were adding more users and as the business was growing the hardware was becoming slower and slower. Eventually when they had to consider renewing one of their servers they looked into Hosted Desktop.

By moving to Hosted Desktop with integrated IT support, the staff were able to get on with their work, rather than wasting valuable time trying to fix IT issues.

All work that was stored can be picked up straight away in another location and they didn’t have to worry about software updates, meaning the business focus was always on their customers, all of the time.

Put simply, we work to provide you with the highest quality service so that you can access your data anytime, anywhere and on any device.
