An offline mode also lets users work on their virtual desktops and update their progress once they connect online.
“The PLDT DaaS solution addresses the increasing adoption of the BYOD trend among enterprises, lowering the cost of ownership with the use of less expensive thin clients, and (offering) greater IT security compliance within their organisation,” Hernandez said.
