Virtual Desktop

Features

SAWTEL’s Hosted Applications (remote desktop solution) eliminates the limitation of having to run critical applications from a single location. Now, the same applications can be accessed from the office, from home or even enroute. SAWTEL provides a complete hosted environment along with a full menu of support services. SAWTEL will also

• Deploy and manage client desktops
• Provide nightly back-ups of all critical data
• Provide full technical support
• Users can access software from anywhere
  To access their hosted applications with SAWTEL’s Hosted Applications® solution, users simply login from any computer connected to the Internet. The type of connection is irrelevant – the reliability is built in. Also, there is no installation or setup required - a browser is all that is necessary. The software programs look and run exactly the same – from wherever the users may be working. Another advantage is that a single copy of an application can be accessed from multiple locations, thus providing users with secure access under a single virtual roof.
• Applications run from the SAWTEL data center
  SAWTEL will host your applications from our professionally managed data center. It is no longer necessary for software to run on individual user computers or on a local file server. With SAWTEL’s Hosted Applications® solution, users simply login through a browser and use software programs via the Internet. The only user requirement is an Internet connection and a browser. Everything else, including all upgrades and maintenance related to running the applications, is provided for by SAWTEL
• Virtually every software application is readily available.
  Different companies and individuals use differing applications based on preferences and individual job functions. If it's mainstream software, SAWTEL probably already runs it. But if we don't, we will install and set it up for you at no cost. Most applications today run on the Windows operating system. For Customer Relationship Management, for example, SAWTEL has ACT!, Maximizer, Goldmine, Sales Logix, and many others. And for accounting functions, SAWTEL’s applications include QuickBooks, Peachtree, Great Plains, and Solomon. In addition, many people are now migrating toward Web-based applications, which are always hostable since they have been developed to be used directly from a browser.
• The full range of Windows software is available
  The vast majority of people today use Windows-based applications. Consequently, there is a myriad of software to choose from. When the applications have been loaded onto SAWTEL’s data center servers, users connect to the servers and establish terminal sessions - exactly the same way they would on their own desktops.
• SAWTEL also supports Web-based applications
  As the popularity of web-based software continues to grow, more applications are becoming available. These applications are easier to host, and that often translates into lower fees.
• The advantages of customized software
  Pre-existing custom software is evaluated on a case by case basis. SAWTEL hosts pre-existing custom software within set guidelines. All pre-existing custom applications are reviewed to ensure that SAWTEL is able to deliver our customary high level of service. Running customized software can be advantageous since it enables a person to fine tune their software to their exact needs.
• SAWTEL guarantees security
  SAWTEL maintains various systems to
  • Prevent unauthorized access to the network
  • Filter incoming email
  • Block undesirable messages
  • Ensure that no virus enters the system.
• Physical access to the data center is also tightly controlled. Biometric hand scans and ID card systems are used to open doors, and the entire facility is guarded and under continuous tape-recorded video surveillance.
• Software Publisher Desktop Packages
  SAWTEL supports software publishers looking for new and unique ways to market and sell their software solutions.
