WALNUT, Calif. – September 16, 2013 – ViewSonic Corp., a leading global provider of visual solution products, is expanding its VG39 ergonomic display series with the availability of the new VG2039m-LED. As one of the very first display manufacturers to offer a 19.5” visible panel designed specifically for the enterprise[1], the new VG2039m-LED complements 22” and 24” VG series models, which are already shipping.

What to Look for in a Zero Client Display

  • Aug 26, 2013


sd-z225_right_hires

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.

ViewSonic Reveals New Horizon View SD-Z245 All-in-One Zero Client at VMworld 2013

  • Aug 26, 2013

ViewSonic’s family of zero client, thin client, and smart client devices delivers high performance and secure virtualized computing, deploying in just minutes


SAN FRANCISCO – August 26, 2013 – (Moscone Center #231) – ViewSonic Corp., a leading global provider of visual solution products, is showcasing its Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) products today at VMworld, including the just launched SD-Z245 all-in-one zero client.

“Virtualization technology is quickly being adopted by organizations of all sizes,” said Jeff Volpe, president, ViewSonic Americas. “IT departments are embracing VDI solutions due to the myriad of benefits including improved user experience, increased security and dramatically lower total-cost-of-ownership.”

ViewSonic VDI devices offer an IT-friendly way to simplify virtual desktop management in any virtualization environment. Easy scalability, increased security, up to 80 percent reduced energy consumption and world-class three-year standard warranties are just some of the benefits organizations enjoy when implementing a VDI solution with ViewSonic zero clients.

The latest addition to ViewSonic’s VDI portfolio, the 23.6” SD-Z245 zero client is an all-in-one desktop display with an integrated Tera2321 CPU, the most advanced processor with accelerated PCoIP from virtualization technology leader Teradici®. Engineered for guaranteed compatibility with VMware Horizon View, the SD-Z245 is optimized to deliver peak performance and blazing-fast response time with VMWare based networks.

The SD-Z245 supports 2D and 3D graphics intensive applications and a rich multimedia experience at full frame rates over gigabit Ethernet. The DVI-I video output easily accommodates dual display configurations for increased productivity.

A genuine “no-compromise” zero client device, the SD-Z245 is up to five times faster than previous generation Teradici-based zero clients. With a solid state design and no operating system or moving parts, the device delivers unparalleled reliability. A generous screen size, fast response times and integrated speakers combine for an industry leading features-to-pricing ratio, making this a great value and the ideal all-in-one solution for high-performance virtualized computing.

“We’re delighted to partner with ViewSonic, a trusted brand with a long history of bringing desktop display solutions to market,” said Dan Cordingley, president and CEO, Teradici. “Utilizing the Teradici Tera2321 dual display zero client processor, the ViewSonic SD-Z245 zero client delivers best-in-class performance and response time.”

Educational Technology: The Flipped Classroom

  • Jul 16, 2013
Flipped ClassroomFrom interactive whiteboards, to HD projectors, to PCs and tablets, technology in the classroom is nothing new. But an innovative method of teaching that brings technology out of the classroom and into the home is gaining ground in many schools across the country. This new teaching model is called the “Flipped Classroom” and it utilizes quick, online teacher-created videos that students typically watch after school, at home. If students don’t have a computer or an online connection at home, they can access lessons at public libraries or stay after school to watch the online lessons. Traditional “homework” is then worked on with the teacher the next day in the classroom.

By delivering instruction online and out of class, and bringing homework into the classroom, this “flipped” methodology benefits students and teachers in a number of ways.

By watching lectures at home, students can go at their own pace, take notes, and write down any questions they may have from the lecture. Students can even rewind lectures to memorize and master certain lessons. In the classroom, teachers now have more time to spend helping students 1 on 1. As a result of this 1 on 1 interaction, teachers can revisit concepts that students may not have understood at home, teachers can answer each student’s questions individually, and student frustration is minimized.

In addition, extra class time is also used to do labs or interactive activities that help to further illustrate the lessons. In short, a creative and collaborative learning environment is fostered within the classroom where teacher-student relationships are much stronger when compared to those of traditional teaching methods. Ultimately, schools that have adopted a “Flipped Classroom” methodology report higher test scores and decreased behavior problems amongst their students.

What do you think about the “Flipped Classroom” methodology? Let us know here on the blog.

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.

  • Apple® iOS and Google® Android™ support are available for both VMware and Citrix

  • Less popular client types are supported by both platforms: VMware supports Kindle Fire, Citrix supports Java client

  • Both VMware View and Citrix XenDesktop support dedicated virtual desktops that are assigned to specific users.

  • Both VMware View and Citrix XenDesktop support Offline Mode that allows a user's VM to be copied to a physical device so that the virtual desktop can be used offline


Connectivity




  • Both VMware View and Citrix XenDesktop support client connectivity via Microsoft’s Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP)

  • VMware View also supports PCoIP

  • XenDesktop also supports Citrix’s HDX (High Definition Experience) protocol

CRN’s annual list recognizes female executives across vendor channel organizations, distributors, and solution providers for their accomplishments over the past year, and the far-reaching impact they are having on the technology industry going forward.  These women represent a changing trend in a traditionally male dominated industry, and I am truly honored to have been chosen among them.

I am very thankful to CRN for this recognition, but I would also like to thank my colleagues and the sales team at ViewSonic—all of who have helped to build an incredible channel program. Here are just a few things that distinguish ViewSonic from other channel programs:
