Azure Virtual Desktop

Smart Move for Workplace Modernisation

Why Migrate to AVD?

We live in an era of fast-paced digital transformation, and it is important for businesses to prepare themselves for continuous advancement. AVD deployment serves as a cornerstone in this pursuit. It liberates users from the confines of traditional desktop setups, enabling secure access to Windows desktop and business applications from anywhere, anytime, on any device.

AVD empowers organisations to embrace the modern way of work while having maximum control over their resources through a flexible cloud-based VDI (virtual desktop infrastructure) platform. Whether employees are in distributed locations, working from home, or on the go, AVD enables a seamless multi-session Windows 11 and Windows 10 experience in all these scenarios without hampering user productivity. This virtualization not only provides exceptional scalability but also reduces IT costs significantly.

With AVD, an organisation’s critical data and applications are hosted in the secure Azure cloud environment, strengthening security by leveraging native security features like MFA, threat detection, and encryption. It also centralizes access and data management, allowing organisations to bolster their security posture and adhere to compliance standards with confidence.

Basically, with AVD, organisations can leverage the unparalleled SECURITY + SCALABILITY + FLEXIBILITY that Azure cloud platform offers.
