Overview
Cloud PC – Premium – Hosted Virtual Desktop
Cloud PC is a cloud computing solution tailored for flexibility, productivity and agility. To help you decide whether to go for a Virtual Desktop Service, let’s highlight some of its key features and advantages.
What is a Cloud PC?
Cloud PC is just like your regular personal computer, but with a difference that all your data and applications are stored at a central Cloud Hosted Server. This is located within one of the data centers of a Cloud Service Provider (CSP), like ATSG. Cloud PC are also referred to as Hosted Workspaces or Cloud Desktops. They are indeed a complete productivity solution for the modern enterprise, especially for employees working remotely, or from their homes (WFH).
At times, you will also come across the term, Desktop as a Service or DaaS. This is yet another name for Cloud PC, where the underlying infrastructure is sourced from a third party Cloud Service Provider (CSP), like ATSG.
How to Access Your Cloud PC?
To access your dedicated Cloud PC, you will be using a technology called Remote Desktop Service. You can simply access Cloud PC – Premiums by using your unique login credentials. As soon as you login, you’ll have full access to your data and applications. You can start your work right from where you left off, in the previous session.
Why Choose Cloud PC?
Below are a few compelling reasons why you should switch to a Cloud PC solution, instead of a conventional personal computer (PC).
Flexible
With Cloud PC, your data and applications move with you. You can use multiple devices such as smartphone, tablet, laptop or desktop to access your apps and data over the Cloud PC, round the clock.
Productive
If you have an Cloud PC, you can remain productive even without turning up for work. All your data and applications are accessible from the comfort of your home, or while you are on the move.
Efficient
The server that houses your Cloud PC packs a lot of processing power. Any task you execute on the Cloud PC will use the resources of the server, instead of the machine used for login. This will improve efficiency.
Versatile
You can access your Cloud PC from devices running various operating systems. The compatible operating systems include Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS and Android, making our Cloud PC a versatile solution.
Economical
The Cloud PC will use the resources of your CSP. You can execute work, even from a low specs machine or endpoint device. This will save you from the additional costs of upgrading on-premise hardware.
Secure
In case of Cloud PC, all your data and applications will be stored safely in a central server of the CSP, like ATSG. There are multiple layers of security in place, before a user can access sensitive data.
Compliant
As a leading CSP, the global data centers of ATSG comply with industry leading standards for privacy and security. At times, this is also mandated by the law, especially when data of sensitive nature is involved.
User Experience
One more advantage of using an Cloud PC is that CSPs use licensed software and productivity applications. This results in a seamless user experience, unlike pirated software that keeps crashing or generating errors.
