Solution Brief
DaaS Delivers Easier
Less Costly VDI for Flexible 21st Century Learning
What you'll need
Virtual desktops are delivered to any device via the Internet, providing the benefits of VDI, plus:
- Faster, less costly implementation & ongoing cost reduction
- Rapid, cost-effective scaling and updates – at any time of the year
- Predictable monthly costs
- Substantial CAPEX and energy savings
- Device and location independence, including flexible printing options
- A robust, satisfying user experience – anytime, anywhere, from any device
Problem
Today’s students are accustomed to anytime/anywhere computing and expect greater levels of access and control than offered by the traditional desktop PC model. Delivering anything less than this can negatively impact the ability to recruit and retain students. While on-premise VDI meets the demands of greater flexibility, enhanced security, and reduced computing costs, its complexity, staffing requirements and implementation costs can be prohibitively high for many schools, colleges and universities.
Solution
Cloud-hosted desktops, or Desktop-as-a-Service (DaaS), offers a less costly and easier-to-manage means of achieving the benefits of VDI – making the 24-hour virtual computer lab achievable for nearly any sized school. With DaaS, schools purchase VDI back-end services from a third-party provider on a subscription basis, including data storage, backup, security, and upgrades.
The value, efficiency, and reliability of DaaS can be further enhanced by the use of endpoint clients purpose-built to support desktop virtualization, such as ViewSonic’s discrete thin and zero clients, integrated thin and zero client displays, and smart display clients, which have been optimized for faster performance, lower power consumption, and longer product lifespan.
