With the shift to remote working continuing and decisions on the best solutions becoming a major focus in order to overcome the changes and challenges ahead it is more important than ever to understand the options available in terms of your technological infrastructure and what this means for your workflow and your team, whether they are based on site or working remotely.
The Tharstern MIS is ready and able to adapt with your changing needs and can be deployed in a number of ways to suit your business. You could opt for an entirely cloud hosted solution, install it locally at your site, or even go for a hybrid approach. Rest assured, our MIS will work seamlessly with any approach, offering the same functionality, performance and experience throughout.
There isn't one “right” position or strategy to aim for, it's entirely down to your company's needs. Here are the options and the pros and cons of each:
Suitable for smaller businesses with a very small budget, limited access to IT services or where staff have multiple site-based responsibilities and would only occasionally need to work from home.
Users can access Tharstern remotely by connecting to their on-site desktop using free or low-cost tools such as LogMeIn, Chrome Remote Desktop, AnyDesk, and TeamViewer.
Suitable for mid-sized businesses with limited internal IT, who require periodic but reliable remote access for remote workers, office workers and execs.
Production and other essential business applications remain on premise, but remote access is gained via a dedicated Remote Desktop Server, possibly using spare capacity on virtual server hosts. Connectivity is secured by RDS Gateway and/or VPNs.
Suitable for multi-site businesses, those with a high percentage of field based/remote workers, and those with some centralized IT.
In this scenario Remote Desktop Services or a Citrix XenApp farm are used as the default delivery mechanism from either on-premise / head office or private data centre. All users regardless of location connect into host-based sessions for their applications.
Suitable for any sized business working with an IT partner or Managed Service Provider to facilitate.
Similar to local cloud above but hosting is outside of the business at either a public or third party-based data centre – usually offering high levels of availability and security.
