Hamada Farag - PeerSpot reviewer
A cost-effective and streamlined virtual desktop infrastructure solution with a user-friendly interface and simplified management
The singular management interface is crucial, particularly for the operations team as it minimizes complexity and enhances operational efficiency. The simplicity of the management tools is a key highlight, especially when compared to other solutions like Citrix, where there is often complexity due to various components such as controllers, storefronts, and different servers.
Terje Romen - PeerSpot reviewer
Accessing the same desktop experience from anywhere but user template creation needs improvement
Mostly we are quite happy with it. However, some of us want a more powerful desktop. When not present, we use a remote tool called Splashtop, which is a good solution for some users. We have about ten licenses for those who need a powerful workstation at the office. We have not used many different tools. We are never in contact with Microsoft. These are quite basic configurations, to be honest. It's not complicated. AI is coming to or is already in some applications we are using. Not system-wise, however, it might be good. I'd rate the solution seven out of ten. It's quite good, yet certainly not perfect.

In addition, you can route Microsoft Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) sessions via ISL Online between your local computer and unattended computers running in the remote network without using a VPN or making any firewall changes.

Hi there,  I use TeamViewer which works. The client needs to download at their end "Teamviewer-Host" which is free.  Your support end needs to pay for the number of devices you want to fix. Go to piratebay10.org (if you wish) and search for it i.e. specifically version 15.  Regards, I.
