AKAZA DaaS

Overview

The landscape of the desktop is going through significant change. End users are more remote than ever before, working from home, the road or branch offices, and they are accessing corporate resources from a variety of devices. At the same time, IT is under immense pressure to enable this new mobile workforce without sacrificing security and control. IT must ensure that corporate data and applications are secure and while controlling the costs associated with the management of end user devices.

AKAZA DaaS enables businesses from the endless cycle of purchasing, supporting, upgrading and ultimately replacing local PCs by providing an untethered “virtual” workspace that can be accessed from anywhere, at any time, on nearly any device, all for a predictable monthly fee.

XenApp delivers remote applications to users instead of full desktops. With XenApp, you get a straightforward publishing process that allows apps on session or VDI hosts to run side by side with local apps and integrate with the Start menu—so they are easier for users to find and launch.
You can deploy XenApp and deliver applications from the cloud with AKAZA XenApp. With AKAZA, your company’s applications run on Server in the AKAZA cloud, where they’re easier to scale. You can enable users to stay productive on the go, scale up or down without large capital expense and safeguard your sensitive corporate resources on AKAZA’s trusted platform.
