Hosted desktops
Here are a few reasons you may want to look at adopting hosted desktops in your business:
Mobility – Access the office from any location
The single biggest benefit of hosted desktops is that your business users can log on to their own desktops and core business applications from pretty much any device connected to the internet.
Budgeting
Hosted desktops can make it easier to budget for IT within your business. You have a fixed monthly fee per user, this includes the hosted desktop, Microsoft licences and support. At HW Technology we also support your end user devices including: PC’s, laptops, printers, mobiles, tablets and internet connections. One point of contact for everything IT related.
Scalability
Hosted desktops provide flexibility and make it easier for your business to grow rather than being restricted due to existing infrastructure. Quickly scale up or down by adding (or removing) employees, storage and applications.
Productivity Increases
By adopting cloud computing you can increase workforce productivity by up to 20 per cent. Hosted desktops enable seamless remote working from any location. You can ensure high productivity levels as users, no matter where they are located get a consistent desktop experience. You can also adopt flexible working procedures as your staff can work from home, happy staff are more productive than unhappy ones!
Enhanced security
A good provider will perform daily data back-ups for their clients and data is typically stored securely in a UK data centre with backup power and generators, cooling, fire systems and 24-hour security making it more secure than an in house server set up. Data is also stored centrally rather than being dispersed across devices, users no longer need to take data with them as it can be easily accessed.
Workforce collaboration
Your teams can collaborate and communicate much more effectively using hosted desktops – they can span sites but all get access to the same data rapidly. All applications are consistent giving your staff increased efficiency over competitors.
