What is an Online Workplace?

An online workplace is a complete Windows desktop running in a professional data center instead of a computer at your office. You log in via the internet — from your laptop, tablet or phone — and see a full Windows desktop with all your programs, files and printers. It feels like sitting at your office computer, wherever you are.

At Virtual Computing, your online workplaces run in our own twin data centers in Eindhoven and Den Bosch. That means: your data stays in the Netherlands, is backed up daily and secured with enterprise-grade encryption and multi-factor authentication. We are ISO 27001 and NEN 7510 certified.

The difference with Microsoft 365? With Microsoft 365 you install Office apps (Word, Excel, Outlook) on your own laptop. With the Online Workplace, everything runs in our cloud — including your own industry-specific software like Exact Online, AccountView, Oase Dental or ISAH. Your own device only serves as screen and keyboard.

We handle everything in the background: Windows updates, software updates, backups, antivirus and security. Run into something? Call us and we help immediately — 24/7, including weekends.

When do you choose an Online Workplace?

An Online Workplace is the best choice in the following situations:

  • You want maximum data security — your data is in our own data center in the Netherlands
  • You use your own business software — accounting, dental, ERP or legal software
  • You need unlimited storage — without paying extra per gigabyte
  • You no longer want expensive servers at the office — we deliver and manage everything
  • You work with multiple locations or remote workers who need the same environment
  • You must comply with strict security requirements (ISO 27001, NEN 7510, GDPR)

Just need email, Word and Excel on your own laptop? Then Microsoft 365 Management is more affordable. Want your own laptop professionally managed? Check our Modern Workplace.

Many clients combine an Online Workplace for business-critical software with Microsoft 365 for email. Not sure? Contact us — we help you choose.

How does an Online Workplace work in practice?

You open the Remote Desktop app on your laptop, tablet or phone and log in with your username, password and DUO Security verification. Immediately you see your familiar Windows desktop with all your programs, folders and printers. Close the app? Your workplace continues right where you left off.

Your own computer only serves as screen and keyboard. All computing and storage happens in our data center. No more slow laptop, no risk of data loss from theft, always the latest software. Even a €250 Chromebook works as a workstation.

Share files via shared folders organized through our customer portal. Printing and scanning works transparently via your local network. Microsoft Teams runs smoothly with multimedia redirection. MyWorkDrive app gives you mobile access to all business data.

Hybrid workspace for SMEs — home, office or on the road

Hybrid working is no longer a temporary exception but the new normal for Dutch SMEs. Employees expect to do their work just as well at home as at the office — and management expects IT not to be a barrier. With an online workspace from Virtual Computing, that's taken care of: the same Windows environment, the same files and the same access to all business applications, regardless of where or on which device you work.

No VPNs that drop, no sync issues between laptops, no differences between office and home setups. One central workspace, with multi-factor authentication and Conditional Access as a security layer — so only your people can access it, and only from trusted devices.

From your kitchen table

Sign in via your personal laptop or tablet. Same workspace as in the office — including business software, mailbox and printers. No VPN, no manual sync.

At the office or on customer site

Work from any device at your fixed workspace. On site with a customer? Plug-and-play on any laptop — your workspace is immediately available.

On the road via mobile

Quick check of mail or a document on your phone or tablet. Same apps, same files, same security as on your laptop.

Simple, secure and scalable

Microsoft Teams

Video calls, chat and collaboration via Microsoft Teams — fully integrated in your Online Workspace with multimedia redirection for smooth video and audio.

Collaboration

Organise work folders yourself and control who has access to what.

Printers and Scanners

Effortlessly print and scan via the devices within your network.

DUO Security

Extra secure cloud working through our 2-factor authentication.

Add or remove users yourself via the customer portal.

Custom Applications

We install your own applications, even with Microsoft SQL if needed.

What does an Online Workplace cost?

The Online Workplace costs €35 per user per month. Everything included: Windows desktop, unlimited storage, daily backups, antivirus, management and 24/7 support. No hidden costs, no installation fees.

Optionally add Microsoft 365 licenses (from €5.20/mo per user) for Word, Excel, Outlook and Teams. Use your own software? We install it on your workplace.

  • No own servers needed — save thousands on hardware
  • No IT staff needed — we manage everything
  • Scale easily up or down — only pay for active users
  • Cancel monthly — no long-term contracts

Most SMEs save 20-40% on total IT costs after switching to an Online Workplace, while getting better security and higher uptime.
