Improve IT Flexibility with Virtualized Desktops

Virtualization software allows a personal computer desktop environment to be separated from a physical machine using the client-server model of computing. Virtualization simplifies your IT infrastructure by allowing users to employ the use of desktop applications from virtually anywhere on any device. Use virtualization software to:

• Provide secure, on-demand access to desktops hosted on Virtual Desktops, Windows Terminal Server and Blade PCs.
• Expedite virtual desktop deployments, flexibly and cost-effectively.
• Improve IT flexibility, the desktop experience and overall enterprise performance.
• Enhance business continuity and reduce security risks.
• Reduce desktop management costs and lower TCO.

Streamline the delivery and management of virtual desktops in a secure and cost-efficient manner with the help of Ericom Software, a Cloud Sherpas partner.

Ericom Software is a leading global provider of Application Access, Virtualization and RDP Acceleration Solutions. Cloud Sherpas and Ericom collaborate to enhance our application delivery solution with Ericom’s HTML5-based application and desktop virtualization software (PowerTerm WebConnect and Ericom AccessNow) and enable successful implementation of Google Chromebooks and BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) throughout organizations. With these technologies, Cloud Sherpas makes Windows desktops and applications and Google Apps accessible from almost any end-point device that has internet connectivity, including laptops, locked-down PCs, Mac, thin clients, Chromebooks, iPad / iPhone, Android and RIM Blackberry / Playbook, etc.

There are many challenges involved in delivering Cloud / centrally-hosted virtual desktops and applications efficiently and cost effectively, such as access management, performance, user experience, security and compatibility with a wide range of end user devices and security (e.g. BYOD).

Ericom AccessNow HTML5 RDP Client enables users to quickly and easily connect to hosted Windows desktops and applications from any device that supports an HTML5 compatible web browser (e.g., Google Chromebook, iPad / iPhone, Android, RIM Blackberry / Playbook, etc., in addition  to Windows, Mac and Linux PCs).

AccessNow does not require Java, Flash, Silverlight, ActiveX or any other underlying technology or client on the end-user device, simplifying the implementation of remote access to applications and desktops, which significantly reduces IT overhead and help desk support workload and enables simple and easy BYOD strategy implementation.
