Hosted desktop

Your office IT system in a box

A hosted desktop is essentially your PC available anywhere, from any computer. You can login over the internet and access it from wherever you are - it has your applications, email and documents. You can easily share files and collaborate on them with colleagues just as if you were sharing an office server. Best of all, there's no capital expenditure, just a monthly fee.

Benefits of Hosted Desktop

Your Hosted Desktop is a fully-featured Windows account complete with Microsoft Office, Microsoft Exchange email and shared calendars, anti-virus and more. You don’t need to install or configure anything - it’s ready to go immediately and can grow as fast as you do, with no expensive server costs. A simple fixed monthly fee includes shared file storage, backup and unlimited support. 

How it works

All you need to access your Hosted Desktop is a computer connected to the internet (Windows, Mac or Linux). It’s centralised, so you see the same desktop every time, from every location.

Microsoft Exchange email & calendars

Your account includes a full business-class Microsoft Exchange account, for email, shared calendars and contacts. You can access your information through Outlook, iPhones, Blackberries or other mobile devices as well as a web site.

Shared files

You get a shared file area, where you can share your company documents with your colleagues. We back them up for you too.

No servers, no setup costs, no complex installation projects - simply sign up with us and we’ll send you a link to your new desktop.
