Corel (now Alludo) Acquires Awingu to Accelerate Its Secure Remote Workspace Offering. Read more
Quick and easy to set up, Zero Trust security – also for unmanaged devices.
Connect securely from your home PC to desktops running in the office, or connect to your server-based computing platform over RDS – or both!
Nothing happens locally on the device, logging in is secured via Awingu’s built-in MFA and all traffic is fully audited and encrypted.
Connect via the browser to your personal computer (or company laptop) into your desktop which is running at the office. You will not require any additional VDA licensing if you remotely connect from a Windows device to your primary desktop/laptop that is connected to the company network (learn more about how RDS & VDI licensing works here). However, unlike a plain and open RDP access, Awingu will add layers of security on top of the RDP access to protect your IT assets to the maximum.
Do you have server-based computing (application server, RDP or VDI setup, file servers, AD, etc.) in store? Use the full capability of Awingu's unified workspace and make all your assets available under a single pane of glass. Enable your employees to have a highly secure and audited login via the browser, without the need to install anything. Give them access to all apps (legacy via RDP, SaaS and intranet via reverse proxy), VDI capabilities and files and maintain productivity by installing appliance and get your homeworking plan up and running in a few hours, from start to finish.
Install the Awingu virtual appliance in the cloud of your choice (private, public or hybrid) and plug in your existing infrastructural components such as your AD, application and file servers, etc.
+/- 2 hours
Once your environment is ready and you want to go live, you can convert your Awingu product keys into the Awingu license via our end-user license activation portal and upload it to the appliance.

“The world's biggest work-from-home experiment has been triggered by coronavirus” is a CNN headline released in mid-February 2020. The virus outbreak is driving homeworking in all impacted countries today. Many businesses – and governments – are demanding employees and citizens to work from home in an attempt to slow down and contain the virus outbreak, as well as assure business continuity. Luckily, Awingu can help you enable secure and easy remote working in a matter of hours!
The demand for homeworking is exploding because of Covid-19 measures being taken worldwide. As it turns out, a lot of organizations are not scaled to provide secure homeworking. Not all employees are equipped with laptops, VPN or VDI platforms are not scaled for mass usage, et cetera. In attempts to keep the business running, IT departments are taking urgent measures in scaling for mobile and homework. Unfortunately, this doesn’t always happen with security best practices in mind:
In this blog post, we’ll explain how organizations that don’t have a VDI setup (or a Server Based Computing platform), nor equip staff with managed laptops, can still enable secure homeworking with BYOD through Awingu. For clarity: Awingu is often used in Server Based Computing context in combination with RDS (Remote Desktop Service). This is a different scenario.
