What is V2 Cloud?

V2 Cloud is a Desktop-as-a-Service (DaaS) platform that delivers managed Windows cloud desktops to users through a browser or client app. It keeps business applications, files, and desktop environments in centrally managed cloud infrastructure, allowing employees, contractors, and remote teams to access a consistent workspace from their own devices.

Alongside cloud desktops, V2 Cloud supports application hosting, cloud servers, storage, and managed environments for business workloads. Organizations can use the platform to make legacy or line-of-business applications available remotely, provision dedicated workspaces for temporary staff, and manage user access and computing resources from a web-based console.

The platform includes options for identity and access controls, endpoint management, backups, monitoring, and security services. MSPs can manage client environments through a shared console and offer white-label services, while ISVs can deliver preconfigured application environments to customers.

V2 Cloud is aimed primarily at small and midsize businesses, managed service providers, and software vendors that want to deliver cloud desktops and hosted applications without operating their own virtualization infrastructure.
