Virtual Desks Usage Benefits

A virtual desktop is a computer tool that allows any user to access their work desk (workspace) virtually, from any device and location and at any time.

The virtual desktop does not run directly on the device accessed by the user, which functions as a mere terminal, but on a remote server hosted in the cloud, using virtualization software. This has a good number of advantages for the company, and also for the worker:

• Maximum flexibility and versatility. The worker can connect to his workspace from different devices (computer, tablet, mobile phone) simply by having an internet connection, which facilitates remote work, work reconciliation, and being able to work normally during business trips.
• Maximum security . The data is not stored in the terminals (local devices), but in the datacenter where the VPS virtual servers are hosted. This minimizes the risk of data theft from loss or theft of devices, and also allows you to schedule and automate company backups. It is advisable to complement this service with the VPN Service, so that the connection of workers to their workspaces occurs in an encrypted way.
• Decrease in infrastructure costs . The use of virtual desktops that run on a cloud server allows you to use simpler terminal devices, and with fewer features. In many cases, it is sufficient to use ThinClient or Raspberry Pi devices, without having to purchase sophisticated computer equipment for each employee.
• Management simplification . The standardization that occurs both at the hardware level and at the software level in the workspaces of the workers greatly simplifies the tasks of computer management and maintenance, the performance of audits and inventories of equipment and applications used, and the deployment of new programs.
• Scalability. The start-up of new jobs is much faster and easier, even for workers and remote offices, which makes the company's growth much more flexible.

All these advantages result in the simplification of the management of the company, decrease of the security risks, and increase of the productivity of the workers, reason why it is a totally recommendable technological solution for any company.
