Nivio Releases All-in-One Business Platform for SMBs

The platform combines Windows desktops, networked storage, user management, and an app store that enables provisioning of business applications such as Microsoft Office.

Nivio, a Palo Alto, Calif.-based cloud computing company that provides IT solutions to SMBs, has released its new IT offering, Nivio for business. The integrated platform combines Windows desktops, networked storage, user management, and an app store that enables instant provisioning of essential business applications such as Microsoft Office.

Nivio for business addresses the mobile access issue for organizations. With analysts projecting tablet sales in excess of 1.2 billion in 2013, SMBs are trying cope with providing a consistent BYOD strategy without threatening security or adding complexity. Nivio users can quickly and easily access their cloud-based Windows desktop, plus all their files and software, on nearly any device – from iOS and Android tablets and smartphones to Chromebooks, Kindle Fires, and even public or shared computers.

Nivio provides maintenance, security, licensing, and upgrades. All business IT needs are covered end-to-end with minimal setup or management. “SMBs are faced with technology problems that are increasingly complex and costly to manage – everything from BYOD and mobile access to dealing with security threats and different versions of different software,” says Frank Houghton, CEO of Nivio. “Solving these challenges is nearly impossible without a dedicated IT department, and few SMBs have that luxury. Using Nivio, businesses can concentrate on what they do well and leave the rest to us.”

From an IT standpoint, setting up an office could easily take days, but with Nivio, businesses ca¨n get set up in minutes without any hardware or infrastructure. Administrators can use the control panel interface to add users, set storage permissions, and instantly give staff access to more than 40 software applications and suites such as Microsoft Office. End users simply log in to Nivio to access their Windows computing experience on the device of their choosing.

Mobile and remote access is also simplified. Users download a small app to their device or log in to their Nivio account through the HTML 5 Web interface to access their Windows desktop, files, and full versions of all their software.
