What is Windows 365?
Windows 365 is a virtualized Windows client that is provided entirely from the Microsoft cloud. It enables companies to offer their employees access to an individually configured Windows desktop at any time - without any local hardware on site. This cloud-based virtual desktop service was specially developed to meet the increasing demands of hybrid working models. Originally designed for gamers, Windows 365 is now aimed primarily at companies that want to offer their teams a seamless, location-independent and productive working environment.
How does Windows 365 work?
With the flexibility and scalability of the cloud, Windows 365 combines the familiar Windows interface and functionality with secure storage of all data, applications and settings in the Azure cloud. Employees can access their work environment from PCs, laptops, tablets or smartphones at any time. Access is via the windows365.microsoft.com portal - either via the Microsoft Remote Desktop app or directly via an HTML5-compatible browser.
A valid Windows 365 license, which is available as a subscription, is required for use. The only technical requirements are a stable internet connection and an internet-enabled end device that allows access to the cloud.
