Megaworld Corporation, the Philippines’ largest developer of integrated urban townships, has transformed its business operations to efficiently and swiftly respond to the various challenges posed by the COVID-19 global pandemic.
In its continued pursuit of business and industry excellence during these extraordinary times, Megaworld ensured the creation of an efficient digital workplace for its work-from-home teams to continue servicing the needs of its customers and stakeholders. Together with Kollab, an AWS Consulting Partner, Megaworld implemented specialized solutions from Amazon Web Services.
With Amazon WorkSpaces, hundreds of employees were able to continue working outside the corporate network and perform their respective functions with military-grade security and data protection controls. WorkSpaces is a cloud-based virtual desktop solution that makes it easy for teams to maintain high levels of productivity on any device.
By embracing technology and innovation, Megaworld successfully observed the following benefits in making Amazon WorkSpaces its primary virtual desktop solution:
