Unlocking the full potential of Parallels DaaS: New features you need to know about
Earlier this year, we announced Parallels DaaS, a solution to simplify IT management by centralizing the deployment, management, and maintenance of virtual desktops and applications.
This robust, secure, and flexible desktop solution offers an array of powerful features designed to meet the diverse needs of modern organizations.
Over the past six months, we have been working to enhance the solution even further, making Parallels DaaS a standout choice for businesses worldwide.
Let’s explore just a few of these new enhancements:
Global Azure region coverage
One of Parallels DaaS’s standout features is its extensive coverage of the global Azure region. By leveraging Azure’s vast infrastructure, Parallels DaaS ensures that your desktops and applications are hosted close to your geographical location. This proximity minimizes latency and maximizes performance, providing a seamless user experience.
Moreover, hosting in local regions ensures high performance and helps comply with regional privacy laws and local legislation.
This compliance gives you peace of mind, knowing that your data is managed according to local regulations, adding an extra layer of security to your operations. Whether your business operates in North America, Europe, Asia, or beyond, Parallels DaaS ensures reliable, high-performance access to your virtual desktops and applications.
Multi-factor authentication
Security is paramount when accessing corporate resources. Parallels DaaS enhances security by integrating seamlessly with Entra ID for Multi-factor Authentication (MFA). MFA adds an extra layer of protection by requiring users to provide two or more verification methods before gaining access.
This robust security measure significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access, ensuring only authorized personnel can sign in to your desktops and applications. By incorporating MFA, Parallels DaaS helps you safeguard sensitive data and maintain a strong security posture for your organization.
Windows 11 support
With Windows 10 nearing its end of support, transitioning to the latest technology is crucial. Parallels DaaS fully supports Windows 11, Microsoft’s newest operating system. Windows 11 brings a host of new features, improved performance, and enhanced security measures.
By adopting Windows 11, your organization can benefit from the latest innovations and continue to receive critical security updates. This change ensures a robust and secure environment for your users, enabling them to work efficiently and securely with the latest tools and technologies.
Flexible virtual machine sizes
Understanding that businesses have varying performance and budgetary requirements, Parallels DaaS empowers you with a wide range of virtual machine sizes to choose from.
Whether you need a cost-effective solution for standard office tasks or high-performance machines with GPU capabilities for demanding applications, Parallels DaaS has you covered.
This flexibility allows you to select a virtual machine size that aligns perfectly with your business needs.
You can ensure optimal performance without overspending, making Parallels DaaS a cost-effective and scalable solution for businesses of all sizes.
