Leading a distributed technical workforce, disabling clipboard and USB redirection for contractor accounts prevented sensitive company data from leaving our virtual environment, ensuring seamless continuity across all time zones.
In our daily production workflow, Parallels RAS published our legacy ERP and accounting software to two hundred remote employees in two days with zero complexity, which resolved our previous operational bottlenecks.
After testing multiple competing tools, using the HTML5 web client allowed our contractor team to access our secure internal CAD software from their web browsers instantly, giving our team total confidence in daily use.
For our primary team operations, the Parallels Mac client allowed our graphic designers to access Windows-only 3D rendering software with flawless performance, saving our team valuable preparation time.
