Embrace flexibility with absolute confidence

During busy periods, such as tax season or year-end, you’re likely to need all the support and power you can get to ensure you can work efficiently and effectively.

IRIS Anywhere is designed to adapt to your needs, giving you the ability to add temporary ‘power boosts’ when you’re busier than usual. For example, users receive an automatic increase in platform resources by 10% for one month a year.

With more teams embracing the benefits of flexible and remote working, accountancy firms need a secure, integrated, and high performing solution to maintain productivity.

That’s exactly what you get with IRIS Anywhere. Wherever you are and however you’re accessing your desktop, you log into a system that looks identical to what you use on your office PC.

As long as you’re using a suitable internet-ready device, you can access your desktop – this includes your files, systems settings, accounting software,
productivity tools (e.g. Microsoft Office), and communication apps (e.g. Microsoft Teams).

Just because you and your teams aren’t in the same room together, doesn’t mean you can’t connect or collaborate as effectively.

The same goes for customers; with the right system in place, your customers should feel like you’re right there with them, providing solutions and resolving challenges side-by-side.

With IRIS Anywhere, you can use a range of powerful communication tools to connect with colleagues and clients wherever you’re logged in from, including:

• Messaging, calling and hosting interactive video conferences via Microsoft Teams
• Sharing and amending files in real-time with OneDrive
• Remote, cloud-based telephone services (with consultative transfer, cloud voicemail, and more).

With so much sensitive information being shared across platforms and channels, it’s essential remote desktop solutions defend against cybersecurity threats.

With IRIS Anywhere, sophisticated cybersecurity is integral to the service. As a user, you benefit from a range of built-in security control measures, including:

• Encrypted email and automatic detection of sensitive data
• Identity management, with access controls and multifactor authentication (MFA)
• Remote wiping capabilities (if devices are lost or stolen)
• Capacity to restrict who can forward, copy, and print sensitive information
• Remote security risk monitoring by the IRIS Anywhere team.

The more devices, applications, and remote working locations at play, the higher the security risk. This is why IRIS Anywhere and IRIS Cloud365+ use enhanced, high-level security measure to keep you, your business, and your customers safe.

To offer greater protection against emerging cyber threats, we employ measures like:

• Real-time anti-virus and malware protection
• Advanced Threat Protection to ensure the safety of email attachments and web links
• Anti-Phishing intelligence to detect unusual behaviour or potential threats.

Our team of IT and software experts are on-hand around-the-clock to help solve any technical issues.

Whether you require help logging into a service or need urgent assistance to restore a lost file, the IRIS Anywhere team is ready to help you. This includes defined priority levels with updates on resolution times, so you can stay in the loop and access suitable support according to urgency.

With IRIS Anywhere, you and your team never have to worry about updating your software or making sure the latest patches are applied.

The IRIS team takes care of any new patches that need to be applied, including all Microsoft Windows updates. We also ensure all updates are made out-of-hours, so there’s no unnecessary downtime or loss of productivity for your workforce.

As part of our endpoint management solution, IRIS Cloud365+, we also manage updates for Microsoft Defender Antivirus, which means you don’t need to rely on any third parties to keep your system safe and secure.
