Pros and Cons of Using the Windows 365 Cloud PC

Windows 365 is the latest notable product in the 365 series from Microsoft. It is a cloud-based computer, meaning your entire operating system is loaded on a cloud server rather than your device's hard drive.

Although Microsoft Office 365 is advertised as beneficial, it might not be appropriate for all businesses. This article will show you the advantages and disadvantages of utilizing MS Office 365 for business to help you determine whether or not it's a system that works for your company.


Windows 365 Pros

Allows You to Access Your Computer Anywhere

Through the Windows 365 Cloud PC, Windows 365 is accessible from anywhere on any compatible device. All the standard computer tasks from your main computer will also be available, including work, accessing data, and customization.


Reduces Security Risks

Windows 365 allows businesses to control their PC resources and data fully. Although employees can log in from anywhere, everything on the PC is housed in the Cloud, making it simple to send security upgrades and impose access restrictions.


Ideal for Hybrid Business Models

Because you won't have to worry about a laptop becoming damaged, misplaced, or stolen and losing essential data, Windows 365 can be a huge benefit for corporate travelers and hybrid working employees.


Windows 365 Cons

Internet Access and Fast Connection Are Required

Although you can access your PC from anywhere, the drawback is that you need internet access. Additionally, it requires fast internet access; if your connection is slow, not only will the cloud application you're attempting to access be slowed down but so will the Cloud computer you're trying to access.


Risk of Disruptions

Even large companies such as Microsoft may occasionally experience outages. If the Cloud server is down or experiencing an outage, you won't be able to access your computer or any of the data saved on it.


Bottom Line

Depending on the needs of your business, Windows 365 Cloud PC may or may not work for you. Although many companies have moved most of their processes to the Cloud, you need to have plans to ensure that your business is safe from possible threats and disruptions and that your IT department, files, and critical data are secure.
