Four benefits of Azure Virtual Desktop for 2023

The way we work has drastically changed in the last few years. Azure Virtual Desktop is one of many ways in adapting. More organisations are leveraging virtual desktops and cutting costs. Cambridge Support discuss four benefits of Azure Virtual Desktop.

Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) is a desktop and app virtualization service that runs on the cloud. It provides easy-to-use infrastructure for your organisation’s employees. It is also supported on various Remote Desktop clients such as Windows Desktop, macOS, iOS, Android, Web, and the Microsoft Store Client.

Firstly, AVD allows employees the flexibility of accessing their virtual desktops from any location. These can also be accessed at any time by using any device. Secondly, AVD is very secure. In 2022, 39 per cent of UK businesses experienced a cyber-attack. Therefore, a move to the cloud makes more sense.

Thirdly, with AVD you only pay for what you use. The physical device used does not need to have high specifications because if it can run HTML, then this is sufficient. Lastly, as business needs change, AVD user licenses can be scaled up and down with ease. Also new virtual machines can be deployed in minutes.

In conclusion, AVD is now an integral aspect of many businesses, both large and small. AVD reduces expenses, delivers flexibility, and simplifies management. This technology has become more widespread with hybrid working becoming the new normal.
