Hosted Desktop is no longer just about access from anywhere - it’s about security, speed and reliability.
Your business systems should be available, secure and performing at their best - wherever your team works.
Cloud4’s Hosted Desktop delivers a secure, high-performance environment built in UK datacentres, trusted by businesses since 2009.
With enterprise-grade security, built-in backups and fast, reliable access, your data and applications are protected at all times.
Rather than relying on local devices and fragmented systems, everything is centralised, monitored and managed - giving you a faster, more secure way to work without added complexity.
The result is a dependable, secure platform your business can rely on every day.

What is the setup process?
Setup is really straightforward. Once your order is placed, our UK-based team will agree a setup and migration plan with you which suits your business.
Every plan is unique and we take into account every single one of your requirements to make sure the solution works perfectly for you. We can build the solution alongside your existing environment and agree a go-live date that suits you to manage and minimise downtime.
Will there be any downtime?
Before starting the setup, we will agree a migration plan and a go-live date. Since our first migration in 2009, we have never experienced a client being unable to work as a result of a Hosted Desktop deployment.
In the lead-up to the go-live date, we will ensure that we have installed and migrated everything that you need, meaning that when we reach the point of switchover, you can log straight in to the Hosted Desktop and seamlessly carry on with business.
Can I install all the applications and software that I use now?
Think of Hosted Desktop as a standard Windows machine in terms of what you can and can’t install. Typically, if an application works in a Windows environment, it will work on our Hosted Desktop. We currently host over 2,000 bespoke applications across the board, including popular apps such as Sage and QuickBooks.
We will install any applications you need as part of the setup process and will support this moving forward, so you don’t need to worry about a thing.
What's the difference between RDS & Citrix?
It really depends on what you need for your business and what your budgets are. RDS has been, and continues to be, used perfectly well for many businesses but Citrix has some distinct advantages including:
To provide Security you can trust. Support you can feel. Outcomes you can measure.
