With use of iPads we are able to eliminate corporate from being copied off to thumb drives.
VDI offers higher security options, as example data an prevented from copy off environment to USB thumb drives, CDs etc
You can save up to 40% over deploying expensive PC replacements by using a VDI infrastructure.
Keeping all data and applications in a virtualized solution allows for fast deployments and scaling.
Due to the migration to vdi we have re-purposed existing pcs into dumb terminals to connect to the vdi desktops.
This has allowed us to lower upfront cost when rolling out vdi migration and has a green angle as we are not destroying any existing pcs.
