HOSTED DESKTOP

Secure Hosted Desktop Solutions for SMEs

At Citadel Technology, we understand the unique challenges that small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs) face when it comes to managing their IT infrastructure. As a Manchester-based IT managed service provider, we specialise in providing cutting-edge, cloud-based solutions designed specifically for SMEs across the Greater Manchester area. One of the key services we offer is our Hosted Desktop solution, which gives your team the freedom and flexibility to work from anywhere, securely and efficiently.

In today’s fast-paced business environment, the need for remote working and seamless collaboration has never been greater. Our Hosted Desktop service delivers a fully managed, cloud-based desktop environment that enables your employees to access their work applications and files from any device, at any time. Whether you’re in the office, working from home, or on the go, Citadel Technology ensures you stay connected and productive.

Why Choose a Hosted Desktop Solution?

A Hosted Desktop gives you the freedom to bring your own device (BYOD) to work, making it easier for your team to work flexibly. Your staff can access their familiar desktop environment, complete with all the software and tools they need, whether they’re using a laptop, tablet, or smartphone. This level of accessibility empowers your workforce to work from any location, driving productivity and enhancing collaboration.

But flexibility isn’t the only benefit. With Citadel’s Hosted Desktop solution, your business can also enjoy:

Increased security: Centralising your desktop environment in the cloud ensures all data is stored securely, reducing the risk of data breaches from lost or stolen devices.

Reduced IT costs: By moving to a cloud-based desktop solution, you eliminate the need for expensive on-premises infrastructure and ongoing hardware maintenance.

Scalability: Easily scale your IT resources up or down depending on the size of your team, without the need for costly upgrades or additional licences.

Simplified management: With Citadel managing the hosted environment, your internal IT teams can focus on more strategic tasks, while we take care of updates, security patches, and troubleshooting.

Work from Anywhere with Citadel Connect

Our Hosted Desktop service is powered by Citadel Connect, our bespoke remote access platform. Citadel Connect provides a secure, high-performance connection to your cloud desktop from any device, allowing your team to work from anywhere without compromising on security or functionality.

Whether you’re working from a local coffee shop, travelling for business, or setting up a home office, Citadel Connect ensures that your desktop environment is always just a click away. With built-in security features like encryption and two-factor authentication, your sensitive business data remains safe, no matter where your team is working from.

Citadel Connect also integrates seamlessly with popular productivity tools such as Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace, making it easy for your team to collaborate on projects in real time. This not only enhances efficiency but also allows for a more agile working environment where your staff can stay connected and productive, no matter where they are.

Bring Your Own Device (BYOD)

In today’s world, many employees prefer to use their own devices to work. Our Hosted Desktop solution fully supports Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) policies, giving your team the flexibility to use the technology they’re most comfortable with while still ensuring that your business data is protected. With Citadel Technology’s secure cloud infrastructure, your employees can access their hosted desktop from any device, including personal laptops, tablets, and smartphones, without risking your company’s data security.

BYOD brings significant benefits to SMEs, including:

Cost savings: Eliminate the need for expensive company-issued hardware by allowing employees to use their own devices.

Employee satisfaction: Staff can work with the technology they’re familiar with, improving productivity and reducing training time.

Seamless updates: No need to worry about software installations or compatibility issues; Citadel will handle all software updates and patch management centrally.

Our Hosted Desktop solution ensures that while employees can use their own devices, the company retains control over security policies and data access, providing a perfect balance of flexibility and safety.
