delivering software as a service for hosted desktops
With our software on demand model, we can provide you with the latest software, streamed directly or hosted, without the need to buy, install or maintain. Becuase ThinkGrid desktops are virtualised and isolated you can also treat the desktop as your own - install any apps you wish, change icons, change anything!

Benefits
  • Rent at a low cost per month
  • Access via hosted desktop
  • Switch on/off as you wish
  • Nothing to install
  • No management needed
  • Instantly installed
  • Whilst the user experience is identical to using a locally installed application, the SaaS (software as a service) model gives you access to the latest applications for a low monthly subscription fee, rather than having to buy, install and manage the software yourself. SaaS also allows you to access these applications from anywhere, whether at home, in the office, on the move or anywhere else with an internet connection.

    What's more, because the applications are provided on demand, you can simply add and remove them as and when you need, meaning you only have to pay for what you use.

    Install ANY application
    ThinkGrid's unique architecture allows our partners and their end-users to install ANY application into the hosted desktop environment. Whether a client app, client/server or other they can be architected and installed in the exact same way. This opens the door to any business looking at the cloud to lower app delivery costs.

    Available Applications from one-Click Catalogue
    Below are a list of applications you can add to your hosted desktop any time you wish, for a low monthly fee. You also have the ability to install your own software and applications to your desktop - just the same as a regular PC.

So you can customise and replicate the environment to suit your customer's specific needs. You can also if supported use your own licensing or existing licensing in some scenarios to lower the migration cost.
