Evolve IP Desktop as a Service

Desktop Management

IT can manage DaaS desktops like standard workstations and apply group policy based on the hostname of the DaaS instance or the user’s login credentials.

Desktop Environment

The user has a near identical experience to a traditional computer running locally on a user’s computer with few differences.

Outsourced Backend Administration

IT is able to focus time on managing the images and applications, not the infrastructure on which the desktops run.

Multi Tenant Architecture

DaaS providers will have multi-tenant architecture, where many virtual desktops, possibly from different DaaS customers, are hosted on the same infrastructure.

Bulk Patching and Updates

Updating operating system patches, security and anti-virus software in batch form to ensure that workstations are up-to-date, even when PC images are offline.

Per Unit Time Pricing

IT has the ability to granularly control the time units that the service is available and charged for.

Device Support

Desktops can be delivered to the end user easily using an HTML client.

Secure Connectivity

Secure connectivity is upheld between the DaaS provider and the client interface and at the backend at the DaaS provider's facility, subject to service levels.
