Do you have a Hosted Desktop yet?

Tablets like the iPad are great, but they don’t have the maturity and compatibility of the Windows operating system. They lack much of the necessary software that you’re used to, and what they have is a pale shadow of the capability developed over two decades of business on the Windows platform. That’s why Hosted Desktops are so great - you can combine the mobility of a sleek tablet with the capability of a full desktop environment.

With an iOS, Android or Blackberry device you get the full advantages of mobile-optimised applications, but when it’s time for business, you can tap into that familiar Windows environment, with all of your documents and the software to run them conveniently stored in one place, ready to be accessed at any time.

Whether you’re just editing a document or spreadsheet, or if you’re giving a presentation with a locally connected device while remotely logged into your Hosted Desktop, Those Computer People have the solution for you. The possibilities are virtually endless.

It’s mainly your office away from your office.

It’s convenient, and you can save money too!

That’s because the Hosted Desktop solution provided by TCP allows you to outsource the costs of running your Desktop PC, with all of the concomitant energy bills, security concerns, and daily backups. Oh, and you don’t need to rent as much office space either. Once you count all the savings, a Hosted Desktop is a real bargain. And that’s just the cost side of things.

The advantages of being able to work from anywhere that have an internet connection are phenomenal. You might be spending a lot of time travelling, or perhaps you have a long commute that can be used to get some work done and be more productive. And if the weather sabotages stops your employees from getting to work - they can work from home!

Wait, so how exactly can I do all of this?

It’s quite simple. A Hosted Desktop is a remotely accessed computer that allows your mobile device, whatever it might be, to tap into the power of a server farm right here in the UK. Once the software is installed, you just enter your login credentials, and your screen is now showing you your Hosted Desktop in real time.

From here you can do absolutely anything you would be able to do if you were standing right in front of the desktop. Send emails, browse the web, edit documents, spreadsheets, and presentations, or use any software that can’t run on your current computer - whether because of operating system incompatibility or lack of computing power.

That’s how someone on a smartphone can do video editing, and someone on a Mac can use all those programs usually reserved for Windows.

The best part is that this is safe for conducting important business, as the connection between you and your Hosted Desktop is secured with SSL (the same protocol used when transacting with your bank), and the Hosted Desktop solution includes anti-virus and daily data backups to protect your work.
