Paragon vDesktop Hosted Desktops Finally Fulfill The Promise of Hassle Free Computing!
We know, it sounds strange and complicated but it is really quite simple. Instead of your business dealing with the costs and risks associated with buying and managing desktops, a Paragon’s vDesktop Hosted Desktop resides in ThinkGrid’s state of the art datacenter providing you with 24/7 access to your company's applications and data. It is always up and accessible wherever you have access to an internet connection. It looks and works just like any other PC you have used in the past. The only difference is that all the “grunt work” is done in the datacenter instead of under your desk. Hosted Desktops from Paragon and ThinkGrid provide you with the benefits of a sophisticated and responsive IT infrastructure without having to build or maintain it yourself. All the maintenance tasks associated with running desktops: backup, patches, antivirus and upgrades are forever taken off your back so you can have a stable platform to run your business.
Stable Desktops, Stable Cost What’s Not To Like?
Not only will you benefit from a hassle free experience while using your Hosted Desktop, you’ll feel secure knowing you can finally predict exactly how much each desktop will cost you month to month, year to year. The Gartner group estimates that the traditional desktop can cost an organization between $4000 - $9000 per year per user! By switching to hosted desktops you benefit from a low, simple, predictable monthly expense that is easily budgeted for. Resources and upgrades can be added on demand without buying and waiting for hardware or software, and then waiting for IT to come and install it. And because it is fully managed and backed up you never have to worry about leaking cash from your desktops due to crashes associated with poor or non-existent maintenance.
Your Critical Data Has Never Been Safer
Providing hosted desktops for your company ensures that your data is always safe from loss or theft. Since the users no longer host their own data, there is no chance of it getting lost with a laptop or accidentally deleted. Paragon vDesktops are hosted by ThinkGrid on servers in multiple datacenters all over the world. These servers are constantly replicating to ensure 99.99% uptime in the event of a failure. Because all the data resides on these servers it can never be lost or stolen, and it is automatically backed up so a user can return their desktop to a previous state in the event of a problem.
