hosted desktops for agriculture

‍

As the agricultural sector becomes increasingly driven by technology, cloud computing plays a leading role in business development and service delivery. Hosted desktops are particularly effective, as they supply your usual desktop experience with all of its files, folders, emails and software to any device connected to the internet. This means that you can access, edit, update and share data whilst on the go, making hosted desktops a very wise move that brings an exceptional return on investment.

Access files from anywhere

There’s nothing more time-consuming and inefficient than logging down key data whilst out checking crops, soil, yield and weather patterns, only to have to input them all over again when you return to your office. What’s more, this data may be required when you’re visiting suppliers, distributors and stakeholders, so you need to know that everything required is available at all times.

By installing a hosted desktop infrastructure across your agricultural business, you can view, edit and share your data no matter where you are. It could be whilst in the fields, visiting an independent store or supermarket chain, commuting on the train or even abroad – as long as you have an internet connection, you have all of your key information available at your fingertips. No more missing data regarding stock, growth patterns, staffing and sales, as it’s always there when you need it.

Expand your communications

Agricultural business managers need to be 100% organised 100% of the time. This means having instant access to everything from email software and social media accounts to video conferencing platforms and the LinkedIn app. By choosing GoCloud hosted desktops, these decision makers will never be disconnected from their many networks, all while being able to view and share the most up-to-date documents and data when attending important meetings and events.

It’s amazing how much of a difference being prepared for all eventualities can make to a business manager’s day, so don’t let yours go to work without having everything they need right there on their laptop and smartphone.

Upgrade your brand

Due to a constantly fluctuating economy, huge competition and growing concern regarding environmental sustainability, farmers are more involved in marketing and public relations than ever before. Hosted desktops enable you to stay on top of the latest news, keep in touch with your professional networks, update your digital presence, join video calls, and access crucial business information from anywhere at any time. In the process, hosted desktops are much more environmental friendly than traditional desktops due to lower energy consumption, making them a greener way to run your company.

Protect your data

Your data covers every part of the business, from crop performance and seasonal strategies to payroll and confidential information. If this were to be lost, corrupted or accessed by an unauthorised party, it could potentially bring your entire operations to a standstill.

Business owners in the agricultural sector need to know that their data is protected and backed up around the clock, so our hosted desktops come with 256-bit encryption, the very best antivirus software, two-factor authentication, ISO 27001 certification, and an isolated Citrix/Windows environment that keeps your server on individual hardware.

When all of this is combined, it’s clear that there’s no safer way to work than through a GoCloud hosted desktop infrastructure.
