Desktop virtualization is the ability to deliver desktops from the data center, as a managed service, rather than from the traditional PC. This allows users to access their desktop applications from any device, from anywhere. Giving users access on their terms allows mobility, which will lead to greater productivity. Additional benefits include:
- Improved Security: Data is physically secured within the data center instead of locally stored on a client endpoint device. Confidential data is no longer vulnerable at an empty desk or on a mobile laptop.
- Business Continuity: Users are no longer
tethered to a single device to access their apps. If a user’s primary device fails, he or she can access their apps from any other device, such as a desktop computer, laptop or thin client.
- Operational Efficiency: New desktops and applications can be deployed in seconds, instead of over a period of weeks. Diagnosing and remediating problems can often be accomplished without an administrator having to “touch” a physical endpoint device.
