VDI & Thin Clients

Small to mid-sized IT environments are tougher than ever. You are looking to reduce IT costs and streamline operations across your company, while minimising server and storage space requirements, power consumption, heat output, and noise.

Many opportunities for improvements exist, yet reworking one area of business operations can offer significant benefits: desktop computing. Installing and maintaining separate PC workstations is complex and can present assorted problems for companies:

• PC management is extremely time-consuming and inefficient.

• Desktop operating costs remain high for most organisations today.

• End users often can’t find the help they need when desktop applications fail.

• Users have an almost unlimited ability to install or remove software on their desktops, creating a variety of challenges for IT teams, especially security and compliance risks.

By changing how you manage your desktop computing environment, you can give end users the computing power and flexibility they need, while improving business operations and reducing costs – while better controlling the desktop.

Consider a new and improved way to deliver the desktop experience to the end user: desktop virtualisation. By virtualising and consolidating desktop images within your storage system, rather than on distributed PC hardware, you eliminate the inefficiencies and costs associated with the typical desktop environment. At the desktop, you can replace traditional PCs with virtual desktops that run on your servers. In this way, you can reduce the total cost of ownership for the desktop infrastructure, extend the life cycle of desktop hardware and respond more quickly to diverse business needs.
