Deployment choices
Choose desktop hosting and the hosted or local Management Console. Locate identity, recordings and access records in the same review.
Desktops for branch and back-office work.
Assign applications and access rules for each role. Run desktops in Neverinstall Cloud, your cloud account or your own servers with Neverinstall Private Cloud, and review where management and session records sit.
Keep branch and back-office data off the devices.
Branch PCs and back-office laptops each hold applications, files and sign-ins that are patched and recovered one device at a time.
Match the desktop to the role.
A teller needs branch applications and the devices used at the desk. A back-office analyst needs a different image and access rules. Set transfer and recording rules for each role, then test them on the devices staff use.

Desktops by role.
Branch staff
Branch applications in a browser at the counter, with the microphone, webcam and PDF printing the desk needs.
Back-office operations
Spreadsheets, mail and reconciliation work on a larger desktop. IT sees what runs on it without visiting the desk.

Put vendors in a group with its own transfer rules, and remove them from it when the engagement ends.
Map where management, records and support sit.
Operational ownership
Agree on image maintenance, recording retention, reviewer access and support permissions for the branch and back-office roles.
Controls for regulated work.
Set once for the organization. Workspaces override them only where you choose, and every override is listed.
Transfer rules
Clipboard, upload and download, each controlled in its own direction.
Session limits
A maximum session length, and an automatic pause when a desktop sits idle.
Event Log
Workspace, user and policy changes with the person and time, exported as CSV.
Test two roles before wider rollout.
Use one branch role and one back-office role.
Applications and devices
Run required applications and peripherals on branch connections. Measure sign-in and reconnect times.
For risk review
A role-by-role application and device checklist with measured results.
Access and transfers
Test allowed and blocked transfers, access removal and recording review on the chosen clients.
For risk review
Control results tied to each role and client, including exceptions.
Location and review
Review record locations, retention and support access with the responsible teams.

Questions from financial-services teams.
Can desktops run on our own infrastructure?
Yes. Use your cloud account or your servers with Neverinstall Private Cloud.
Neverinstall hosts the Management Console by default. Disconnected deployments can use a local Management Console; review local identity, updates and support before rollout.
Can payment data stay in India?
Run desktops in Indian regions of your cloud account or on Neverinstall Private Cloud. Map records, management and support data too. On Neverinstall Cloud, storage can be dedicated to your organization, configured before rollout. Your compliance and legal teams review the final setup.
Which attestations are available?
Neverinstall is SOC 2 Type II attested and ISO 27001 certified. Request the SOC 2 report under NDA for your review of the configured deployment.
How do staff sign in?
Connect your identity provider over SAML or OIDC, including Entra ID, Okta and Google. Staff use a supported browser or RDP client, with desktop access assigned by role.
Which data transfers can we restrict?
Set clipboard, download and print rules by group. Test those controls on the clients and devices staff will use, and record exceptions before rollout.
Where are recordings and activity records kept?
Storage depends on the deployment. Confirm locations, retention periods and reviewer access before rollout. Access and session events can be exported to your SIEM.
How is it priced?
Neverinstall Virtual Desktops is priced per user, per month, with infrastructure listed separately. Share the current VDI renewal to compare costs for the same users.
