WINDOWS VIRTUAL DESKTOP
Designed and offered as a Desktop-as-a-Service (DaaS) for Windows desktops running in the Azure cloud, Windows Virtual Desktop (WVD) makes accessing all your familiar Windows desktops and apps as easy as pointing a browser and paying an enterprise subscription. Say good-bye to standing up Windows on hundreds or thousands of corporate endpoint devices and managing and maintaining future updates, patches, and image-reloads on your users’ endpoints. It’s Windows made easy and economically, and IGEL OS is made for WVD!
