    A quick and simple way to cut costs
    An option that is growing in popularity for forward-thinking companies, hosted desktops remove the burden of managing individual desktop environments in-house, leaving you to concentrate on growing your business and maximizing profits. Information is stored in our highly secure datacenters and delivered to you via any Internet browser, so your own, fully customizable desktop can be accessed wherever you are, whenever you want. It is exactly the same as using a PC - simply plug into your broadband connection and you're ready to go. Hosted desktops are around 40% cheaper than regular PCs, when looking at the Total Cost of Ownership.

    Energy / power
    Rising energy costs, combined with government-imposed financial penalties on carbon production, makes cutting your power consumption a vital consideration. However, as all of your data and applications are stored in our energy-efficient datacenters, hosted desktops allow you to make significant savings. Centralization of computing resources is a way to cut power consumption, as you will use only 10% of the power of a normal PC.
    Cost of buying PCs and software licenses, and installing, maintaining and upgrading hardware
    Do more with less - fight waste and reduce overheads. We manage the software, so you don't need to. Pay only for the resources you use and scale your IT systems up or down almost instantly. Time = money, so this simple, instant IT solution saves both.
    Disaster recovery / backup
    If your office is condemned, for instance, and you cannot go back inside it, hosted desktops allow you immediate access from another location - so you can go to any other office and get working again, or work from home, a coffee shop, etc. And, with a virtual desktop accessed via a zlago, you have a simple device with no moving parts that will last over 3 times longer than your PC. And, zlago don't crash.
    Greater security means fewer financial losses
    Cyber crime is on the rise - identity theft, fraud, etc. Hosted desktops let you keep on top of the latest security developments without having to invest and manage expensive and complex security solutions.
