Today’s workplace no longer requires a traditional office building. Employees want the flexibility of remote and hybrid work options. But this flexibility brings the challenge of accessing work files and applications from different devices. Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) is a solution that provides a secure and efficient way to access work resources from anywhere. It’s a desktop and app virtualization service that runs on the cloud, allowing users to access Windows desktops and applications from any device and from anywhere in the world.
Who should consider Azure Virtual Desktop
Businesses with a significant percentage of mobile staff working from different locations would find Azure Virtual Desktop an ideal solution. Additionally, small to medium-sized businesses who don’t have the IT resources to spend time deploying computers, assisting users with issues, installing and upgrading applications, and managing network infrastructure can benefit from AVD. Regulated industry sectors like financial services, healthcare, and government will have confidence in the security, data privacy and compliance it provides. It can also be a good tool for standardizing operations after mergers and acquisitions.
The benefits of Azure Virtual Desktop
Employee experience. Deliver desktops and applications anywhere, providing employees the best virtualized experience with a solution fully optimized for Windows 11 and Microsoft 365. AVD allows you to more easily support the remote or hybrid work culture your employees want.
Curtail costs. AVD is a cost-effective solution allowing companies to only pay for what they use and to use existing licenses to reduce costs.
