Desktop as a Service
Don't let just anyone enable your users to work from anywhere

Solid experience and security in a mobile world
For many organisations, deploying a virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) is problematic. Challenges include reliability, latency, bandwidth and security. And not everyone has the resources (or need) to employ a full-time systems administrator. However, our Desktop as a Service (DaaS) makes it easier for your employees to work from anywhere. We're experts in hosting and managing your virtual desktops and applications, and maximising performance, with zero hassle.

How it works
Our Desktop as a Service simplifies your desktop deployment – reducing management, driving down costs and offering all the benefits of ‘virtual desktop’ and ‘session host’ virtualisation, without the upfront expenditure. We've designed it to increase service levels, reduce complexity and add flexibility – allowing you to respond to change more efficiently.

Easy to manage
Deploy and manage your desktop users using a single console. Our Desktop as a Service makes it simple to manage desktop images, virtual machines, user assignments, applications and desktop models. You'll be able to provision new desktops within minutes. And we'll provide you with your own virtual Local Area Network (vLAN), designed to make it easy to integrate Proact DaaS into your own active directory environment.

Security by design
Built-in security includes secure point-to-point network connectivity, dedicated compute and network isolation. Your team will be able to manage desktop security just like they manage their existing infrastructure, with the same credentials and permissions. And our own experts will monitor your Desktop as a Service 24/7, to look for threats and advise you if action is needed.

Fully-comprehensive support
Whilst you're in complete control, our experienced team will take care of monitoring and managing the underlying infrastructure, backups and security on your behalf, 24/7. We work to pre-determined service level agreements, so you'll know exactly what to expect from us in terms of response times. Service Management is our fully-comprehensive support package. It means we take responsibility for getting the best out of your service.
