AWS Remote Work Solutions

AWS solutions for remote employees, contact center agents, and creative professionals

Organizations increasingly need options that enable employees to work from any location while remaining secure and productive. We provide a set of solutions built on top of the AWS Cloud to quickly, securely, and cost-effectively enable remote work for any general employee, as well as specialized solutions for contact center agents and creative professionals.

AWS End User Computing (EUC) services provide secure access to the virtual desktops and streamed applications that workers need to get their jobs done. With AWS EUC services, workers can be productive from any supported device, including Amazon WorkSpaces Thin Client, while improving IT agility and organizational security.

Beginning August 1, 2023, you can bring your own Microsoft 365 Apps for enterprise license to run on Amazon WorkSpaces services - giving hybrid and remote workers the productivity tools they need to do their best work.

Benefits

React Quickly & Scale

When disruptions happen you need to be able to act fast. It’s not the time to think about sourcing servers, standing up data centers, or shipping laptops. ASW Remote Work solutions enable you to onboard tens of thousands of employees in hours and days not weeks and months. With AWS, you don’t have to over invest in resources up front to handle future peak levels of business activity. Instead, you provision the amount of resources that you actually need and easily scale your usage up or down to any size in response to normal business cycles or unplanned events.

Stay Secure

You need to enable remote workers without losing control of your data or opening up new threat vectors. Security at AWS starts with our core infrastructure. Built for the cloud and designed to meet the most stringent security requirements in the world, our infrastructure is monitored 24/7 to help ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of your data. You can rely on the AWS global infrastructure, knowing you always control your data, including the ability to encrypt it, move it, and manage retention at any time, whether you are in the office or at home.

Save Money

You need to keep people productive from anywhere, without unnecessary overhead. You don't want to be locked down with long term commitments and complex licensing arrangements. AWS Remote Work solutions all feature pay-as-you-go pricing options so you can adapt to changing business needs without minimum monthly fees, long-term commitments, or upfront license charges.

Remote Employees

Amazon WorkSpaces

AWS solutions for remote workers help companies onboard new employees remotely, enable secure access to their desktop from anywhere, ensure all company content remains securely in the cloud with Amazon WorkSpaces, provide tools to remotely share and collaborate on documents inside and outside the organization with Amazon WorkDocs, and deliver a scalable pay as you go meetings solution that enables virtual meetings, calling, and chats from anywhere with Amazon Chime.
