Kaviza, the fast up-and-coming virtual desktop software startup, now has added support for iPads, iPhones and Android smartphones.
Users of those devices now can access virtualised Windows desktops using Version 3.1 of Kaviza’s VDI-in-a-Box product and Citrix Receiver, chief executive Kumar Goswani told eWEEK on 23 September.
What this means is that users can access an enterprise VDI system on those devices simply as one of the windows on the device. Local applications run as they normally do.
One of the biggest advantages of a VDI system, for example, is much easier OS updating and system patching, since it only has to be done a few times rather than for every single device in the company.
Kaviza virtual desktops are aimed at small to medium-size businesses but also can be utilised by remote offices in larger enterprises, Goswami said. Hundreds of seats seems to be the “sweet spot” for the product, he said.
