There is ever increasing pressure on businesses to decrease their carbon footprint, and many com-panies are now choosing to be more green. Sustainability is achieved by acting now to reduce

your carbon emissions and energy consumption.

The average, modern desktop PC consumes approximately 0.3 KW of electricity per hour; left on 8 hours per day, and on standby over night would cost a company around $140 per year calcu-lated using an average U.S. electricity rate.

With a solution from ZUIT you can reduce your IT power con-sumption by up to 90%. Typically, the greatest consumption of electricity in businesses comes from computers, therefore decreasing computer power consumption by 90% will greatly reduce total electricity bills.

Implementing our hosted virtual desktop solution will allow your business to start using more efficient thin client technology because, the ZUIT model doesn’t require powerful processing at the end user’s computer. The data center does all of the hard work, allowing you to replace your power hungry PCs with green-friendly thin clients throughout your business. Thin clients are economical in more ways than one, not only are they more energy efficient, they are more reliable, have a longer life cycle than PCs, and often cost half as much.

In our opinion, it won’t be long before everyone moves over to thin client computing in order to reduce their costs and be more environmentally responsible.

ZUIT cloud computing is the most environmentally friendly form of computing.

How Desktop works for you

flexible solutions for your business needs

S I M P L I F Y I N G Y O U R I T I N F R A S T R U C T U R E

Traditionally, to stay current with standard business practices, companies are forced to implement and manage a multitude of complex IT solutions: from Exchange servers, Blackberry Enterprise servers, anti-virus/spam software, server/workstation upgrades, data backup routines, and more. The initial purchase price, plus the ongoing cost to manage this new technology can often be prohibitively expensive, leading many companies to continue using outdated IT infrastructure rather than harnessing the power of the latest technol-ogy available.

Through the use of desktop virtualization technology, ZUIT is able to provide a simple and affordable answer to this problem. ZUIT offers a complete, managed IT solution including all of the latest features and security possible on a monthly subscription basis. Once signed up with ZUIT all of your IT needs will be taken care of on our end allowing you to concentrate on your task at hand rather than worrying about the latest IT crises. You will never need to update another application or worry about upgrading your hardware again, ZUIT takes care of it. You will have anywhere, anytime access to your desktop, and with a higher degree of security than plac-ing servers in your physical office.

A N Y W H E R E A C C E S S

With ZUIT’s revolutionary solution, you will have the freedom to access your virtual desktop from any internet-enabled computer in the world. Whether you’re working in the office, from home, or in the field, your ZUIT desktop is waiting for you, just as you left it.

Instead of relying on complex, unreliable, and expensive local server and network infrastructure, ZUIT delivers your desktop to you over the Internet. Your ZUIT vir-tual desktop, along with all of your companies’ data and programs, are stored on our powerful servers in highly secure Los Angeles data centers. All systems are fault tolerant, and data is backed up automatically in real-time, providing you with complete peace of mind.

CUSTOM SOLUTIONS

ZUIT is incredibly easy to manage, and requires no special training for end users because there is no notice-able difference between running a ZUIT virtual desktop and a traditional local computer desktop with the familiar Windows operating system. ZUIT provides a wide range of software as standard, including the latest version of Microsoft Office, Microsoft Exchange, Internet Explorer, and Adobe Acrobat. If you need additional programs for accounting, CRM, or access from Blackberries and iPhones that can be easily configured. In fact ZUIT can be customized exactly to meet the needs of your business, efficiently implementing company wide updates, or pro-viding programs and data specific to an individual user.

C O S T R E D U C T I O N

Above all, ZUIT can help to greatly reduce your IT costs. Because your ZUIT desktop is stored, backed up, and managed in our data centers, costs associated with hard-ware and software upgrades, anti-virus and anti-spam, IT support, and disaster recovery are all taken care of on our end. All you pay is a flat monthly fee per user, allow-ing you to budget for your business IT needs now and in the future.

The way in which businesses manage their IT is going to change dramatically in the next five years, away from fixed IT infrastructure towards an IT on demand model which offers many distinct advan-tages over current practice. ZUIT is at the pio-neering forefront of this change towards ‘’cloud computing’’ with its seamless, next generation, end-to-end IT solution - ZUIT Virtual Desktop.

“Cloud computing, from a pure economics standpoint, is a more efficient way of servic-ing small business...It’s not a one-time thing. It’s pay as you need it.”
