With our virtual hosted desktop, you can achieve all three and more.

Make Outdated Technology Last Year’s News

While the pandemic has taught us many things, one of the biggest takeaways for businesses is no doubt the importance of having the right technology. In a modern corporate landscape, agility, flexibility and adaptability are everything.

Indeed, businesses still reliant on traditional PC desktops or on-site hosting infrastructure could soon find their productivity, collaboration, communication and profitability suffering from this outdated and costly technology.

If this sounds familiar, making the switch to a cloud-hosted virtual desktop should be your business priority for 2021. Placing a virtual desktop at the centre of your business operations ensures your IT continues to drive your business forward, rather than holding it back.

 

What Is a Virtual Hosted Desktop?

Although it sounds complicated, virtual hosted desktops are rather simple. Harnessing the power of the Cloud, a virtual hosted desktop allows you to store your business data and applications off-site, rather than on in-house servers or hard drives, outsourcing complex and expensive IT management to a third-party provider.

So why should you make the switch?

 

Premium Service for Affordable Prices

By reducing time spent on managing existing IT infrastructure and eliminating expenditure on new equipment, servers and maintenance, a virtual hosted desktop will ultimately save your business time and money. With the flexibility that cloud-base technology offers, you can scale your chosen solutions to suit any size of business, ensuring your IT provision can expand and support your company as it grows.

As the Island’s premium IT service provider, you can trust us to take care of all your IT needs. Choose Elite Group IT for your hosted desktop solution and we’ll take care of the rest. From installation to ongoing maintenance, our expert engineers are here to support you and your business.

Indeed, from as little as £44 per user with no upfront costs, we can become your dedicated IT department. Our award-winning engineers are only ever a phone call or chat message away, so you can leave the tech to us and get on with driving your business.

 

Safely Stored in the Cloud

With your applications and documents stored in the cloud, a virtual hosted desktop provides built-in disaster recovery and business continuity. This cloud-based solution offers full access to your company desktop from any location, so your business can continue running smoothly even if access to your office is restricted. Whether illness or bad weather prevent you and your employees from going to work, or if your building is damaged by fire or flooding, your business is fully future proofed against the unexpected.

Safely stored and backed up in the Cloud, a virtual hosted desktop allows you to take advantage of advanced security technology, protecting your business from data loss, downtime and cybercrime for a fraction of the cost. With both your IT and data in expert hands, you can ensure your business is fully protected no matter what.

 

Ideal for Remote and Hybrid Working

If you’re looking to implement remote or hybrid working, a hosted virtual desktop solution should be at the top of your list. Rather than storing files and applications across several computers, a virtual hosted desktop centralises all company data, storing it off-site in the Cloud and allowing you to access your company desktop from any location, with any device with an internet connection.

With remote working never more vital for businesses, ensuring your employees have the right equipment to work from home is essential to safeguarding your business operations, powering productivity and maintaining excellent collaboration- even when you’re away from the office.
