Murgitroyd modernise their IT environment with Azure Virtual Desktop
Murgitroyd are a leading European Intellectual Property Law Firm who are dedicated to adding value to the world’s leading innovators and brands. With assistance from Bytes, they decided to move to Azure Virtual Desktop as an alternative option to their remote access needs, as their on-premises Citrix platform was coming up for renewal with a significant cost increase.
Bytes gained an understanding of Murgitroyd’s requirements via a scoping call, meticulously gathering insights into their existing infrastructure, identifying pain points and outlining the desired outcome. Then, our specialists created relevant host pool and Intune policies to ensure the virtual desktops were optimised for performance and security. After which followed a period of user testing and feedback to ensure necessary adjustments and enhancements could take place before going live. Finally, Bytes delivered a workshop to provide comprehensive training and ensure best practices.
