Virtual Desktop

Tips & Advice to help you make your decision on Virtual Desktop

If you operate any aspect of your business remotely, either via work-from-home employees or extensive travel requirements, you may benefit from the use of virtual desktop services.

Instead of hosting your desktop on a local server and only being able to access it from a specific computer, the virtual desktop is hosted on a remote server and can be accessed through a web browser from any computer that has an internet connection, yet you still retain the ability to access your local drive.

No matter where you or your employees are located at any given time, if you are utilizing a virtual desktop, everyone can log onto a shared web interface using an encrypted user ID and password, and have access to all of the same applications, or specifically to those which they have been granted permission. Virtual desktops can be accessed from both a Mac and PC; it is simply the benefit of having a personal workstation that can be accessed from anywhere.

Saving a Word document or Excel spreadsheet takes longer when using a virtual desktop because you are downloading the document from the internet and saving it to your computer or storage device. You may also experience a slower printer response. The pros, however, outweigh the cons.
