It is clear that virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) is part of the next frontier of business solutions. The ability for workers to access files from anywhere and on any device can go a long way to boost productivity and reduce costs. While cloud storage platforms and server networks may provide something similar, VDI offers more features.

Now, the big question is, how do you leverage VDI to optimize your business without compromising on security, accessibility, control, and cost? The answer is FileCloud. FileCloud is the #1 file collaboration platform for VDI. The fact is that no other file sharing platform for VDI offers as much versatility as FileCloud. We give you full control over our software to manage your data. The result is unprecedented adaptability and next-level solutions.

Why Choose FileCloud?

Flexibility: At FileCloud, we understand that one size does not fit all. For example, the VDI setup that a huge finance firm may require is bound to be very different from what will suit a small law firm.  While the former may opt for hosting on-premises to create an in-house cloud sharing platform, the latter may choose to allow FileCloud host their data or run FileCloud on third-party cloud platforms like Amazon WorkStation to cut cost. This is why we allow you to select the right VDI model that will suit your business. From choosing whether to self-host to picking the pricing structure that best suits you, everything is in your hands.

Accessibility and Security: Most enterprise solutions make users choose between accessibility or security. At FileCloud, we understand that both accessibility and security are highly important and one cannot be sacrificed for the other. Therefore, FileCloud is compatible with virtually all end-point devices whether you are running Windows, Linux, Mac, iOS or Android. FileCloud support Word, PDF, Excel, PowerPoint, and more so you can preview files before downloading them regardless of the format. When working on FileCloud, your documents are automatically synced across different platforms. You even have offline access to your data.

We provide full encryption of files - both during transit and while in storage as well as antivirus and ransomware protection. In recent years, some of the top enterprise cloud data storage platforms have been compromised by hackers. However, the high level of security on our platform which is a complimentary product to VDI or a file collaboration platform for VDI ensures that you will never be a victim of data breach.

When using FileCloud, there is no hassle when uploading large files. We give you tools to prevent data loss like backing up and restoring files, remotely wiping out data or restricting access and also restoring files that may have been deleted accidentally. What's more, updating apps can be done directly from the data center rather than individually on each device. This is not only more simple, but also less cumbersome for your IT staff.

Seamless Collaboration: Collaboration is the lifeblood of every business, and we understand this at FileCloud. Therefore, we provide a range of tools to support seamless collaboration. For example, you can lock files to prevent changes and also track file activity to keep track of changes. You can also automate processes using a simple 'If this then that (IFTTT)' model. There are no limitations to the potential for collaboration when using FileCloud.

If you want to host your desktop remotely without going through the trouble of setting up a remote desktop service (RDS) or if you want to make your remote desktop available to multiple users at the same time, VDI is your best option. With FileCloud, you can customize the desktop applications that each user has access to. Everyone does not have access to the same desktop. This means you can limit the apps available based on each person's role in your organization.

FileCloud, the #1 file collaboration platform for VDI does not only limit IT admin overhead cost but can also boost productivity. Imagine there is a severe snowstorm and most of your workers can't make it to the office. Nonetheless, you have a deadline that can't be extended.
