In a nutshell, Desktop Anywhere is like a company’s own IT department which encompasses all the associated IT costs for a fixed monthly fee. Desktop Anywhere compares favourably with what is normally spent to purchase and maintain an IT system.

With Desktop Anywhere:

• You no longer have to purchase and maintain your own servers, computer rooms, virus protection, back up and security systems - this is all taken care of by OBT, detaching the overheads normally associated with internal IT systems.
• You are relieved of the responsibility of managing the infrastructure, as OBT assumes full responsibility of the IT system, making network downtime and server crashes, which are part & parcel of a traditional IT set-up, a thing of the past.
• You gain financial advantage from the conversion of high-tech capital-intensive expenses into predictable, fully tax-deductible, monthly pricing plans. This levels out the peaks and troughs of IT expenditure.
• You are able to set up your own virtual networks, enabling a common platform for all offices within an organisation. Companies using this system will all conform to a best practice and an industry standard platform for technology, and can add users to their network regardless of their physical location.

No Need for Servers

With Desktop Anywhere OBT runs all your programs and stores all your data. From the time you login, everything you do (every program you start, every file you open, every calculation you make, any data you save etc.) is executed on a computer that is hosted at OBT - not physically located at your desk.

The computer used to access Desktop Anywhere is simply a computer which gives you access to your Desktop. This means all your data and applications are managed, stored, protected and maintained and are accessed securely either via the Internet or a private network.

Because all your data is stored on an external network, users can access their own Desktop (files, programs and computer configurations etc.) from any computer with an Internet connection. In an office it does not matter which computer an employee uses because each station connects to OBT's main data storage centre and every user accesses their own desktop.

Peace Of Mind

We believe that the greatest benefit OBT has to offer, above all of the financial, technical and efficiency benefits, is peace of mind.

This is because the entire responsibility of ensuring your system works seamlessly, all of the time, rests with OBT. It is no longer something you have to worry about, making downtime and loss of productivity because of technical issues a thing of the past.

We don’t just promise you a seamless system, we deliver it, and that’s guaranteed.

Cost Efficient

Computers that are connected to OBT's Desktop Anywhere do not need servers, software, security or back up systems because all of your information is stored at a highly secure data centre.

Cost Considerations:

• Hardware in an office consists of printers and low end PC's which in a traditional model accounts for less than 15% of the total IT cost.

• No further need for high capital expenses (eg. file servers, network security, virus protection, backup units, internet links, corporate email systems, software licenses and upgrades, software installation, network maintenance, hardware upgrades) - this is all taken care of at the data centre.

• A professionally maintained data centre handles all of the above mentioned services

• The data centre links up the various offices of the organisations using communications means such as modems, internet, fibre optic cable, ADSL, ISDN etc.

• Since users always connect to the data centre, they always connect to "their" desktop, applications and data, no matter what time or place they connect from, supported 24 hours, 7 days.
