Desktop as a service (DaaS)

Desktop as a service, or DaaS, means your whole computer desktop runs on a provider's servers, not on the machine in front of you. You log in from a laptop, a tablet, or a borrowed computer, and the same desktop, files, and programs appear. It's useful when staff need special Windows software from anywhere, or when you want to hand a contractor a set-up desktop without giving them a company laptop. For most small teams, though, it's more than needed. If your work already lives in browser tools like Google Workspace, Shopify, and Xero, you already have most of the benefit. DaaS adds a monthly cost per user and needs a good internet connection.
