desktopsites

desktopsites is a leading developer of innovative and cost effective Windows^® desktop virtualization solutions for small and mid-size businesses ("SMEs"). desktopsites' Konect Elite solution delivers virtual and physical resources on-demand without sacrificing the features typically available with more expensive access infrastructure alternatives.

SMEs are key to the success of the North American economy. More than 99% of all employer firms are SMEs with less than 1000 employees, and they employ more than 54% of all employees. SMEs often do not have access to the resources and capital of large enterprises yet they face the same competitive pressures driving technology adoption and go-to-market innovation. While many software vendors have found success in serving large enterprises, many are struggling to understand how best to serve SMEs.

desktopsites has and continually experiences the challenges of the SME market first hand, and we have used this knowledge since our inception to develop innovative SME Windows^® desktop virtualization solutions. desktopsites understands the risk, resource, and reward balance for SMEs and is committed to providing cost effective solutions with rich feature sets to ensure SMEs remain competitive.

desktopsites is a privately-held Canadian corporation with head offices in Calgary, AB, Canada. desktopsites' Konect Elite solution is available to SMEs across North America through our ever - expanding reseller network.
