Productivity from any device, anywhere.
Oort Cloud Solutions managed (or co-managed) Hosted Cloud Desktops are designed with performance, security, compliance, and the modern workforce in mind.

Moving desktops to the cloud also gives organizations access to an unprecedented level of business data and insights, covering everything from application usage to employee idleness. It’s time to level-up your desktops.
What is Desktop as a Service (DaaS)?
Desktop-as-a-Service (DaaS) is a cloud computing service that remotely provides end users with virtual desktops or applications. Because DaaS delivers remote resources over the Internet, end users can access virtualized desktops from personal computers or mobile devices. Users can then interact with remote resources just like interacting with resources installed on a local machine.
DaaS vendors provide and manage the back-end virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), including maintenance, backups, updates, and data storage. This is in contrast to traditional VDI solutions, which require several components to be licensed, deployed and managed in the local data center.
In a DaaS model, the organization is only responsible for managing desktop images and user access to eligible apps and desktops, and billing is typically per user subscription or time used.
