Praim Solutions for VDI Management<\/h2>\n

Praim has engineered a very robust solution for managing PCs amd thin client devices, whether Linux or Windows based thin clients<\/strong>.\u00a0 The management platform centers around the ThinMan Server.\u00a0 ThinMan Server allows organizations to have a centralized point of control for configuring, monitoring, updating, and provisioning thin clients<\/strong>.\u00a0 The various other solutions provided tie into ThinMan Server and allow organizations to have a very modular management plane that allows utilizing the solutions that present the most business value for their individual business use cases.<\/p>\n

The great thing about this approach centering around ThinMan Server is the solutions compliment one another and allow organizations to use the solutions they need for their environments.\u00a0 However, using all of the different aspects of the VDI management solution offered by Praim allows organizations to have the complete management solution.\u00a0 However, for organizations who may not need all aspects offered by both Agile4PC or ThinOX4PC, which solution is right for their environment?\u00a0 What are the differences in features and functionality between ThinOX4PC and Agile4PC?\u00a0 Let\u2019s take a look at both of these solutions and see how each can be used by organizations to provide powerful VDI thin client management.<\/p>\n

Praim Agile4PC Features and Capabilities<\/h2>\n

One of the tremendous challenges with deploying various end user thin client devices is providing the same user experience across various platforms<\/strong>.\u00a0 This even includes providing uniformity across the various Windows operating systems released in the past few years.\u00a0 Praim Agile4PC allows organizations to implement a uniform user interface across Windows PCs including various hardware platforms and even different Windows versions.\u00a0 This saves tremendously in expenditures of both time and support costs as the end user experience is standardized into a single supportable interface and experience that end users utilize.<\/p>\n

The \u201cAgile Mode<\/strong>\u201d functionality allows for many great features that allow VDI administrators to effectively implement this uniform, secure, and streamlined interface.\u00a0 This is accomplished by an ultra-secure desktop experience<\/strong> that can be \u201clocked down\u201d from performing any actions or accessing any programs other than those allowed by the organization or based on job roles.\u00a0 Additionally, the Agile Mode functionality allows a quick and easy way to create effective \u201cKiosks<\/strong>\u201d that can otherwise be challenging to create and manage.<\/p>\n

Agile4PC also easily integrates with ThinMan Server to provide the centralized management and configuration of end user thin client devices.<\/p>\n
