Is a hosted desktop a worthwhile investment?
4th December 2020
In a fluctuating economy, it's essential that every investment you make as a business owner has the capacity to provide numerous valuable returns. If you're considering investing in a hosted desktop (also known as Desktop as a Service or DaaS), what can it offer you that makes it a worthwhile investment of your valuable capital?
1. Minimising infrastructure costs
Infrastructure costs can be crippling, especially for growing small businesses. Hardware is expensive, but official software uses can also get expensive when you need to install it on multiple machines on a constant basis. Using a hosted desktop minimises this, as it means you can get a much longer service life out of the hardware you invest in, due to the processing being handled elsewhere. It also means your software travels with you from machine to machine.
2. Allow for consistent efficiency improvements
Hosted desktops allow you to take your workflow completely under your control, improving the efficiency with which you conduct business - you're no longer tied to traditional office hours, or to your office space. This means you can be working on the move, or at home, without sacrificing any productivity or user features. This is not only true of you, it's also true of every employee and team member you have, improving efficiency throughout your whole business.
3. Implementation as a part of a broader package
A hosted desktop service can be a core part of a wider IT support package. Investing in a broader suite of managed IT services will allow your business to make key efficiency improvements, while also enjoying more secure data processing. The service scales with your business requirements and usage, meaning that you're only ever investing proportionately to what you're actually using. This is one of the key reasons a hosted desktop can offer such great investment returns.
