Hosted Desktop. Work anywhere, easily.

The workplace that thinks for itself. And travels with you.

What we often find – and you may too

An old server in the storage room, updates only when there's time, and external access? More a matter of luck than anything else. Add to that home offices, multiple locations, or changing devices, and things get complicated.

This is exactly where the Hosted Desktop Application, or HDA for short, comes in.

The idea: you get your workspace – but not locally on your office PC, but securely and centrally in the data center. Everything runs there, you just access it. Just as if you were sitting right at the computer.

What if your office could be anywhere?

You open your laptop in your home office, log in, and see exactly what you see in the office: the same interface, the same programs, the same data. You simply continue working, no matter where you are. And you're not alone. We work in the background to ensure that everything remains stable, secure, and up to date.

Sounds good – but what exactly is HDA?

HDA is your complete workplace – only outsourced. You no longer need servers in-house, a cobbled-together VPN solution, or individual systems for each location. Everything runs centrally via our data center in Vienna – GDPR-compliant, ISO 27001 certified, and fully managed. Important: You never transfer the data yourself – only what you see is what you get. In other words, your screen.

That means: no data on local devices, no security risks from forgotten laptops, no “It was only stored on my computer” drama.

How do I get there?

With us, the path to a hosted desktop application is not a leap into the unknown.

We'll walk you through it step by step:

  1. You get in touch.
    And simply tell us how things are going for you right now. No preparation necessary, no preliminary diagnosis—just tell us honestly.
  2. We listen and ask questions.
    What do you really need? Who should have access to what? What's working well, what's not? We look at your processes together with you – not just the technology.
  3. You receive a clear offer.
    No small print. With everything that goes with it: setup, licenses, support, training.
  4. Then we get started.
    We set up your HDA system in the data center, prepare everything – and provide a test system. So you can see how it feels before you switch over.
  5. Switchover.
    Usually over the weekend. Monday morning: log in, get started. No data migration on your own, no “where is it now” feeling.
  6. Support & operation.
    We remain at your side – for adjustments, questions, problems, and new requirements. 365 days a year.

What are the specific benefits for me?

  • A workspace that always looks the same—no matter where you are
  • Centralized management—no updates are forgotten
  • Maximum security thanks to data centers in Austria
  • No more hardware investments for servers
  • Full flexibility for home offices, secondary locations, or on the go
  • Predictable costs—monthly, per user
  • Relief for your internal IT department – or finally IT, even without your own department.

And above all: you can work, not manage.

Is it suitable for everyone?

No—and that's a good thing.

HDA is ideal if you have distributed teams, work with multiple devices, and/or are tired of local IT maintenance. But sometimes there are better solutions—and we'll tell you that too. We give honest advice.

If it's a good fit, great. If not, that's fine too.

Hosted Desktop means: You work. We take care of the rest.
