Microsoft 365
Windows 365
Windows 365 is a cloud-based desktop infrastructure service that streams a full Windows experience — apps, data, settings, and security — to any device, anywhere. Known as Cloud PCs, Windows 365 provides a consistent, secure, and always-current computing environment without the need for traditional on-premise hardware.
What is Windows 365?
Windows 365 is a cloud-based desktop infrastructure (VDI) service from Microsoft that streams a complete Windows experience to any device. It provides organisations with a secure, always-current Cloud PC that can be accessed from anywhere — eliminating the complexity of traditional on-premise VDI solutions.
Unlike traditional hosted environments that are often shared and commoditised, Windows 365 Cloud PCs are customised to your specific needs and hosted in your own private environment, ensuring high levels of performance and availability. Virtual Machines rely less on the horsepower of end-user devices, significantly driving down costs by extending the life of existing PCs or replacing them with more affordable thin and zero clients.
The simplified management model of Windows 365 further drives down total IT costs by enabling your technology and IT staff to work more efficiently — consolidating control, automating delivery, and protecting user compute resources. Windows 365 empowers employees to be more productive by improving desktop reliability and enabling a consistently great experience across devices, locations, media, and connections.
