Azure Virtual Desktop for businesses in Pune, Mumbai, Bengaluru and Hyderabad

Deliver secure Windows desktops and applications from Azure, sized to your users, your applications and your budget.

Azure Virtual Desktop

How Askari Infotech helps

Azure Virtual Desktop, formerly Windows Virtual Desktop, lets people work on a full Windows desktop or a single application from almost any device, while your data stays in Azure instead of on laptops. It suits distributed teams, contractors and organisations that need tighter control over where data lives.

We design Azure Virtual Desktop for organisations in Pune, Mumbai, Bengaluru (Bangalore) and Hyderabad. The work that matters most is done before anything is built: understanding your applications, sizing session hosts honestly and modelling what the environment will cost to run.

A good fit if

  • You have remote, hybrid or contract staff who need secure access to business applications
  • You want data to stay off personal and unmanaged devices
  • You run applications that are hard to deploy on every laptop
  • You need to onboard and offboard people quickly
What we deliver

Azure Virtual Desktop: what is included

Pooled or personal host pools sized to real workloads, using Windows 11 multi-session where it fits.

Identity and access controls

Microsoft Entra ID, multifactor authentication and Conditional Access applied to every connection.

Questions

Azure Virtual Desktop: common questions

Is Azure Virtual Desktop the same as Windows Virtual Desktop?

Yes. Microsoft renamed Windows Virtual Desktop to Azure Virtual Desktop. It is the same service, now with more features.

What licences do we need?

Access rights are included with certain Windows and Microsoft 365 licences, including Microsoft 365 Business Premium and Windows Enterprise E3 or E5. You pay separately for the Azure compute and storage the desktops use. We check your licences before design, because they differ by user.

Will it cost less than buying laptops?

Sometimes, but not always. Azure Virtual Desktop trades device cost and support effort for monthly consumption. We model both options for your situation before you decide.
