High Accessibility
Your powerhouse of a desktop is now accessible from anywhere you have Internet access.
LOW DOWNTIME:
- Computer Crashes, Loss or Theft, Fire, Water Damage, Corrupted Hard Drives… all a thing of the past.
- A virtual machine is never affected by any of these issues. All of your programs, documents, emails and financial data are safe and secure on a redundant system with daily backups locally and offsite.
NOT HARDWARE SPECIFIC:
- What this means is that no matter what computer you have, fast or slow, Mac or PC, you will be able to access your virtual machine just as easily as you access the Internet.
- This also means that your employees with a Mac computer can easily work with employees that are on a PC.
- And this means that telecommuting just got 100x faster and easier.
What devices can I use to access my Virtual Machine?
Typically any device or computer that has access to the internet will probably be able to access your Virtual Machine. Below is a list of devices that we have used, or know will be able to access your Virtual Machine. This list is by no means exhaustive as more and more developers are writing programs that have the ability to login using a Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP).
- Any PC or thin client running Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Linux
- Any Mac computer running OS X
- The iPad
- The iPhone both 3GS and 4
- Any Android based phone
- Any Blackberry based phone.

In general, with Virtual Machines, you can now access your data anywhere there is an Internet connection and on any device if it can access the Internet. Your data is secured and is HIPPA compliant. You can quickly and easily upgrade your machine with more memory, hard drive space and operating systems. And since you can continue to use the computer that you have (even if it is 10 years old), you save a lot of money on new equipment and IT costs; getting more power in a computer for a lot less money.
