Because thin client adapters can be simply VESA-mounted to any desktop display, and turn that display into a cloud-connected virtual desktop, thin client adapters are currently the most common endpoint device in a VDI architecture. However, for those organizations that are considering the total cost of ownership, they may want to upgrade their entire desktop hardware.

In that case, zero client displays (also known as cloud monitors) can provide a fully integrated, cloud-enabled monitor that has zero client technology already built into it. Therefore, zero client displays are perfect for companies seeking a seamless desktop virtualization experience all within a single, cloud-connected display.

But before choosing a zero client display, organizations should examine the following key features:

• Power consumption: How much energy will the display save?


• Connectivity: Which input/output options are available for connecting peripherals (i.e. USB ports, DVI-I, etc.)?

• Security: Does the display offer easy management and security options for the IT department?


• Resolution and contrast ratio: Does the screen performance match the needs of the users?


• Built-in speakers: Saves space and further streamlines the desktop.


• Internal chipset: Earlier cloud monitors featured the Teradici TERA1 chipset, while newer models feature the more advanced and powerful TERA2 chipset.

All of the above features may greatly affect whether an organization can fully realize all of the benefits of a VDI deployment. To that end, ViewSonic’s SD-Z245 Smart Display Zero Client is the perfect solution for companies seeking a seamless desktop experience, with ultra-high security and reliability, in VMware-based networks. A true zero client, the SD-Z245 has no local memory or moving parts for the ultimate in energy savings and dependability. A VMware-certified design guarantees performance and compatibility in your network.

Choosing Projectors with Advanced Connectivity Options

Before deciding on a projection solution, it would benefit organizations to consider the connectivity options offered by different projectors. Selecting a projector that can deliver convenience and flexibility in the form of multiple connectivity options can provide maximum installation flexibility for a variety of uses.

For example, a projector equipped with the following options would provide an organization the versatility to connect and present from virtually any device:

• Wireless & Wired LAN display: Project content via wired, or wireless, LAN. LAN display functionality offers the ability to project content from multiple PCs, as well as the ability to broadcast to multiple projectors. Wireless presentation features allow users to wirelessly project from Windows or Mac laptops.


• Plug 'n play USB display: Deliver presentations using a quick, simple plug-and-play USB connection without running a bulky connection cable.


• PC-less presentations: Jump start presentations without waiting for a PC to boot up. With this feature, users can start presentations or content directly from a USB and/or SD flash drive.


• Mobile app: Using a mobile app, Android and iOS users can wirelessly send information from their mobile devices, such as smart phones or tablets, to the projector and project content such as MS Office documents, PDFs, videos, or images.

Which connectivity options would best fit your projection needs? Let us know here on the blog.

 Citrix bestows ViewSonic’s suite of fully functional desktop thin clients with

‘Best of Synergy’ award

Anaheim, Calif. – May 22, 2013 – ViewSonic Corp. announced today at Citrix Synergy™ the future of virtual desktop computing accessed via managed smart displays. Citrix has also named ViewSonic’s new solutions a ‘Best of Synergy’ award winner.

Leveraging a 25-year display heritage, ViewSonic has extended the Citrix XenMobile™ enterprise mobility management solution to its next generation of thin clients with its new line of smart displays. Citrix XenMobile gives IT organizations complete management and control of their mobile devices, apps, and data. ViewSonic’s new smart displays take advantage of this management and control by integrating XenMobile into its new devices, including the 24” SD-A245 and 22” SD-A225, to give IT organizations the ability to manage both their mobile and smart devices seemlessly.

“Citrix XenMobile supports the broadest array of new types of devices in the industry. ViewSonic’s SD-A245 and SD-A225 smart displays are a key example. Our collaboration with ViewSonic to pre-load XenMobile on the company’s smart displays allows IT to remotely secure and deliver apps and data on these new classes of devices,” said Amit Pandey, vice president and general manager, Mobile Platforms group at Citrix.

As enterprises develop and adopt mobile productivity apps that are changing the way they do business, IT organizations are driven to make significant investments in enterprise mobility solutions.  By extending these mobile solutions to smart displays running the Android operating system, enterprises can standardize on apps and mobile management tools for both mobile and smart devices, reducing IT complexity and streamlining costs.

“Through our relationship with Citrix, ViewSonic is helping IT organizations effectively extend their enterprise mobility investment to smart devices connecting to virtual desktops. At the same time, our display solutions allows users to access an extremely secure, locked down desktop that IT can easily manage. This new class of device changes the game in thin computing, delivering tomorrow’s thin client today. We are honored that Citrix has validated these efforts with a Best of Synergy award,” said Jeff Volpe, President of ViewSonic Americas.

In addition to the security and manageability features, low power consumption and access to virtual Windows applications and desktops found within a traditional thin client environment, the ViewSonic smart displays with Citrix XenMobile Enterprise benefit from:

• The ability to natively run managed mobile applications, including Worx-enabled Android mobile apps, without putting demands on backend PC servers, in turn reducing network bandwidth


• The ability to natively run multimedia, including types of video and media that a thin client typically cannot


• The ability to provide single sign-on access to SaaS and web-based applications, simplifying the user experience while maintaining a secure and managed environment


• A touch screen UI design, helping to facilitate the use of touch within software applications. This delivers users the modern interactive form factor of smartphones and tablets, but with a larger screen size for heightened productivity


• Extended device management and control capabilities that allow enterprise IT staff to use the same mobile management solution, Citrix XenMobile Enterprise, to manage their smart displays and mobile devices, reducing complexity

ViewSonic’s award-winning 24” SD-A245 smart display with XenMobile will be showcased at the Citrix Synergy Los Angeles event May 22-24, 2013 at the Anaheim Convention Center. Both the SD-A245 and SD-A225 will be available in August at respective ESPs of $549 and $449.
