When disaster strikes, Windows 365 Reserve and Cloudpager are the perfect solution. Most disaster recovery plans account for desktops. Not accounting for applications is where the plans fall apart. Without them, what are employees supposed to do?
Getting a Cloud PC provisioned is the first half of the equation. Thanks to the speed of Windows 365 Reserve, you can have desktops up and running in minutes. The second half of an incident is where organizations are losing hours they can't afford to:
- Downloading and installing traditional Win32 applications onto a fresh OS
- Repackaging legacy applications that were never built for modern Windows
- Holding users out until provisioning completes
..and the incident is still unfolding the entire time.
