What features should you look for in a hosted desktop?
12th November 2020
Many business owners now will have heard of hosted desktops and the many benefits they bring. If you are looking at harnessing these for yourself, it is key to choose the right service to use. One of the best ways to make the correct choice is looking at the features any desktop which is hosted comes with. But which are the most important to keep an eye out for?
Top level online security
As hosted desktops exist purely in the Cloud, online security is certainly something to consider carefully. Online threats to security are not to be taken lightly and present a real danger to businesses. In light of this, you must find a hosted desktop which uses high-end encryption tech and robust firewalls to keep you safe. Any decent provider will make cyber security a top priority, so it is key to look for this when choosing which to use.
24/7, year round support
While the best hosted desktops will deliver superb performance and high levels of uptime, you may sometimes need support. This might not be due to problems with the desktop - you may for example simply need advice on how to configure something or how to access certain options on your desktop. Whatever the reason, it is essential to choose a hosted desktop which comes with 24/7 support, 365 days per year. This means you will always be able to get the help you need, when you need it.
Available on any device
The modern business world is a rapidly changing place. This can be seen in how popular remote working is now or how many people use their smartphones to stay connected with the main office. With this in mind, it is key to use a hosted desktop which is available on any device. This gives you and your staff the flexibility to work in any situation, anywhere.
