Does my small business need a hosted desktop?
3rd November 2020
If you are planning to open a small business, you may think that your business is not yet ready or does not require a hosted desktop. In this blog post, we explain how small businesses can significantly benefit from a hosted desktop.
1. Support a remote team
As a small business, you may not wish to rent or purchase a commercial workspace as this can be a large overhead cost that drains your budget. If you do not currently have a commercial office space, a hosted desktop will ensure your employees can access their work desktop from anywhere in the world they are located, providing they have an internet connection.
2. Enhance your value
Although hosting services may seem like a cost that is unnecessary to your small business, operating with a hosted desktop is a cost-effective choice for your business and could see you save significantly in the long-term. For example, with hosted services, you will not need to upgrade your internal hardware or desktops as frequently, as your hosting provider will handle upgrades and maintenance for you.
3. Improve your business reputation
When you opt for hosted desktop services, you can offer your customers a better, more consistent online experience. For example, hosted services will be able to handle a higher flow of traffic and will include security features such as DDoS protection, which will guarantee a higher uptime for your website and online platforms. A higher uptime will ensure a better user experience for your customers and help you build a reliable, trustworthy business reputation.
4. Boost your growth
As a small business, it is essential your business not only grows but grows sustainably. A hosted desktop can be easily scaled to the needs of your business, supporting your growth reactively. If, for example, interest in your business suddenly booms, you will be able to instantly scale your hosting services to ensure you can accommodate increased traffic to your website and a higher level of customer data.
