The Cloud has become an exciting new *buzz word" with amazing promise and potential.

Cloud computing is a method of providing technology services to individuals without the need to buy, install, and manage extra servers and software. With cloud hosting, you can get your desktop and server applications securely over the internet.

A hosted desktop eliminates the need to operate via the traditional set-up of desktop PC's in an office environment, whilst
lowering the costs of the services that you require. Hosted desktops act just like a traditional desktop PC, but your software and data are hosted in our data centres instead of being stored and limited to your localised server. You can be anywhere in the world to access your hosted desktop securely, via an existing PC or laptop – all you need is an internet connection, and for
optimum cost savings, a specialised device called a thin client.

It's a simple idea. Rather than dealing with the expenditure and risks associated with installing and maintaining the hardware and software that is needed, intergral~IT provides 24/7 hosted access to your desktops and applications. All of the benefits of a sophisticated and responsive IT infrastructure remain, but at a fraction of the expense of the traditional model. From day one of your relationship with us, you will benefit from the convenience of our ready-to-use solutions and a reduction in costs, especially as your business grows and changes.
