Digital Workspace

The Future of End User Computing

The power of the cloud is transforming not only behind-the-scenes IT operations, but the end-user experience, too. Ubiquitous Wi-Fi connectivity and the growth of mobile working have made “workplace” a virtual, as well as a physical, concept.

Increasingly, end users expect their virtual workplace to offer access to the same applications, data, and services as the physical office. Burwood Group can help you bring your virtual workplace to life, with tools that improve employee productivity and engagement, while ensuring secure, scalable access that protects company privacy and data.

Collaboration tools, for example, are particularly in demand—and cloud solutions are often the best way to provide them. Burwood Group can help you leverage the cloud to create a network infrastructure capable of fast provisioning, in turn empowering mobile team members no matter where they are working.

Our Digital Workspace Partnerships

Citrix

With our partner Citrix, Burwood Group simplifies the complexity of creating a virtual workspace. In contrast to a traditional on-premises model for IT provisioning, Citrix’s cloud-based infrastructure provides an agile and scalable platform for supporting end users. We help you adopt Citrix Cloud’s centralized application and desktop management, along with routine task automation, to streamline the provisioning process and free your IT team to focus on other priorities.

Given the pace of technology disruption and business change, it’s critical to have the ability to quickly add or remove employee desktops in response to acquisitions, mergers, divestitures, and new business ventures. Burwood Group can help your workplace benefit from Citrix Cloud’s power-scaling, automation, and intelligent health check features. Once deployed, your team can quickly configure desktop with easy-to-use wizards. We also ensure that your end-user computing environment will protect your data, with an integrated, flexible framework to secure your apps, data, and network.

Microsoft Windows Virtual Desktop

As enterprises shift to long term remote work, every business needs a remote workforce strategy encompassing devices, access, and security. Windows Virtual Desktop (WVD) is Microsoft’s Azure-based desktop and application virtualization service. Running entirely in the cloud, it is the only VDI that delivers simplified management and ability to scale your Windows desktops and apps in Azure in minutes. With WVD you can get multi-session Windows 10, optimizations for Microsoft 365 Apps, and more.

As a Microsoft Gold Partner and expert in end user computing technologies, Burwood Group can help you determine if WVD is the right path for your enterprise. Engage Burwood for help with:

  • Licensing: If you’re already a Microsoft shop, you may be entitled to WVD through existing entitlements. We’ll work with you to clarify your options.

  • Azure Cloud Design: You’ll need a solid foundation for your WVD deployment. Burwood’s certified Azure engineers can build your cloud environment according to best practices and enable your admins.

  • Managed Options: Interested in a monthly subscription to WVD? Burwood Group offers WVD as a turnkey monthly service. Outsource WVD hosting and management to Burwood and receive the same platform benefits, user experience, and access.

Ready to evaluate WVD for your organization? Contact us to start your free WVD Strategy Assessment. We’ll spend a half day with your team to create a strategic and technical path to WVD implementation.

Microsoft Office 365

For a larger enterprise, migration to Office 365 requires thoughtful planning and budgeting. Burwood Group helps you create the Office 365 collaboration toolset aligned with your business goals and IT strategy, and establish your vision for a successful rollout.

Microsoft Teams

Part of the O365 solution suite, Microsoft Teams is a market leader in digital workspace. It provides a single interface for employee voice, video, chat, document sharing, and file storage. If you are considering Teams for your users, creating a strong governance framework and user training plan are critical.
