Core IT
Hosted Desktop & Azure Virtual Desktop
Secure cloud desktops your team can use from anywhere — perfect for hybrid working, contractors and BYOD.
The Problem
Hybrid working makes traditional office IT painful — VPNs are slow, laptops get lost, and keeping line-of-business apps and data secure across personal devices is a constant battle.
How CLD Computers Helps
We deploy Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) and Windows 365 Cloud PCs so your team logs into a full Windows desktop from any device — Mac, Windows, iPad, Chromebook. Data and apps stay in Microsoft's UK data centres, with MFA and Conditional Access enforced. Great for accountants, law firms, and any business with legacy apps or contractor access.
