Virtual desktops and VDI

Since remote work was written into the Polish Labour Code, many employers have had to answer a practical question: how does someone reach business software safely from home? A virtual desktop is one of the neatest answers. Windows and your programs run in the cloud or on a server in an EU data centre, while a laptop, tablet or low-cost terminal simply shows the picture. Data never leaves the data centre, a newcomer gets a working desktop in minutes, and a lost laptop carries no company data.

Included in this service

Not everyone needs a dedicated virtual PC. We match the model to headcount, software and budget.

Talk the scope through with an engineer

Choosing the model

Azure Virtual Desktop on shared hosts, Windows 365 at a flat price per person, or a classic terminal server with a cloud provider.

Region and data

Hosts run in a region inside the EU, chosen according to where the required services are available, which makes conversations with your DPO and with clients asking where their data sits much simpler.

Profiles and apps

User profiles held in FSLogix, software baked into the base image or published as RemoteApp. Comarch, Symfonia or Płatnik behave just as on an ordinary PC.

Security

Sign-in through Entra ID with MFA and Conditional Access, and no public RDP port. For clinics or accountancy practices, clipboard, USB and local printing can be blocked.

End devices

Older laptops, cheap terminals, staff members' own computers: anything with a current browser or Remote Desktop client will do.

Cost control

Autoscaling switches hosts on in the morning and off at night, with a minimum running over weekends. A usage summary arrives every month.

How we work together

Rollout time depends on headcount and software. We always start with a pilot.

01

Analysis

How many people work at once, in which programs and from which devices. That drives the monthly Azure estimate.

02

Pilot

A few people from different teams use the desktop for a week. We catch printers, scanners and programs that misbehave.

03

Build

Host pools, base image, profiles and access rules. The client app is pushed to devices remotely via Intune.

04

Switchover

Teams move across in groups, with a one-page guide and faster support during the first week.

The priciest virtual desktop is the one left running all night. Without autoscaling, Azure hosts tick over 24 hours a day although the team uses them for ten. A power-on and power-off schedule plus a cap on sessions per host can cut the bill noticeably, with no difference staff would notice.

Questions and answers

That depends on how many people work simultaneously and on the software. An office worker on a shared AVD host usually comes out cheaper than a dedicated Windows 365 seat, while a designer needing a GPU costs far more. After the analysis you get a per-person figure in zloty, with licences and infrastructure itemised separately.

Most will, through device redirection inside the session. Older document scanners and label printers cause the most grief, which is why we test them in the pilot rather than after the whole company has moved. Fiscal printers and card terminals stay connected locally.

For them an ordinary laptop with BitLocker and Intune is the better fit. VDI needs a connection, albeit a modest one, since it only carries the screen image. A sales rep on the road or a site manager usually keeps a local machine.

On the technical side, yes. We describe how staff connect, which devices are allowed and how data is protected, so HR and your lawyer can write it into the policy. The policy itself and health and safety matters are outside our scope.
