Thin Clients? Why Use Them? IT Simplicity with CLI Thin-Client Solutions Economical, Flexible, Client Driven…

Challenges with distributed desktops Efficiency Low resource utilization & high power  consumption Data Management: Backup and recovery  Device Provisioning/De-provisioning  Device Management: Patch & Virus  Protection OS and application deployment • Complex Desktop Management Remote locations /Distributed workforce • Hardware management / multiple images • Cost of PC Management • Lack of Security Security of sensitive data • Stolen or lost mobile device • Compliance with regulations (SOX, HIPPA) •

Desk Solutions: IT vs. User User Requirements IT Requirements   Manage disparate desktop Personalized Desktops that images easily follow them   Manage explosion in Flexible access anywhere multitude of devices using multiple devices   Provide secure, continuous Desktop Biz Continuity & access to desktops, apps Disaster Recovery   Manage legacy, WIN32 AND Legacy, Win32, Web apps Web apps work well together   Low management costs Rich Application Interface
