In the new era of remote work, My VirtualWorkspace provides accounting firms with a managed virtual desktop solution with improved performance and better security
According to Business Wire, the financial services desktop virtualization market is expected to witness a growth rate of 45.4% from 2019 – 2024. As an accountant, the data you deal with is highly critical and access to it needs to be secure. With Covid-19 causing a worldwide work from home shift, data security should be a top concern for firms who picked-up and worked from home when the pandemic hit.
Traditional desktops that we are used to cannot cope with changing business requirements. You need a more flexible desktop solution that can offer improved performance, along with better security.
My VirtualWorkspace, a managed virtual desktop solution, provides accounting firms an entire virtual desktop, ensuring the continuation of productivity and collaboration while maintaining the highest security and compliance, an protecting sensitive and valuable information from digital threats.
Business Critical
As an accounting firm, you may have several business-critical applications. Maintaining these applications on outdated desktops is a difficult task. My VirtualWorkspace reduces the complexity of your IT systems, optimises your budget and increases user experience and accessibility.
Every accounting firm contains data and information that is critical to the organisation. If you lose this data in any way, you will risk the security of your clients and your reputation. When you work remotely, the risk further increases. Especially when the world is witnessing a surge in cyberattacks due to the COVID-19 crisis, accounting professionals need to be careful more than ever.
Data Security
As the virtual desktop is created in Azure and not in a datacentre, your firm gets enterprise-level data security with constant monitoring and the help of the latest firewalls and antivirus. The applications and data reside in remote servers and not your device. Hence, even if one of your devices gets lost or damaged, you can use another device to access the apps.
Although you might be working remotely, the devices you are using are still physical devices and have a specific configuration. As the volume of your accounting data and the number of applications increase with time, you need to upgrade the devices. Working remotely makes it highly unfeasible to upgrade your system at home. However, with DaaS there is no such problem. As the desktops are virtual, they can be upgraded remotely.
My VirtualWorkspace offers you flexible desktops that can be scaled instantly. Since the desktops are virtual, their configuration can be set as desired. You ask to add or remove system resources as per your needs. What’s more is that you only pay for the resources you consume.
Cost Savings
For an accounting firm, a big part of your budget is allocated to IT. Physical desktops need to be purchased, they need electricity and proper air conditioning to function, as well as a dedicated IT team for desktop maintenance. All these processes result in significant costs for your business.
With My VirtualWorkspace, you can get the desired number of virtual desktops and pay as per the usage of resources. This frees you from buying high-end desktops for your office. You can deploy a BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) policy, where the employees can use their personal devices. Since the desktops are not deployed on the premises, you eliminate the costs needed to maintain them.
Especially during the COVID-19 pandemic when the entire workforce is working remotely, it has never been a better time to get started. Get a free demo with our expert team and see how My VirtualWorkspace can empower your remote workforce while maintaining the highest security and compliance.
