Why Server Based Computing with Thin Clients? Everything within reach from one workstation Data and applications are stored and managed centrally on the server only which eliminates expensive software maintenance of individual desktop workstations. You save time and money and will be able to refocus on strategically important IT tasks. No place for viruses Put a stop to computer pests. With thin clients and a read-only operating system, viruses, worms and trojans can no longer infiltrate your desktop systems. You only have to protect the central servers, instead of each individual client in the network, to effectively close security gaps. Real savings with low total cost of ownership Thin client systems help permanently reduce your IT costs. In addition to considerably lower administrative, maintenance and support costs, unnecessary expenses for new PCs are eliminated due to the low purchase price and long service life of thin clients. Flexible data access Use your data where it is are actually needed. With a thin client system, you will easily and quickly integrate departments, sites, branches, and home offices and provide immediate access to your individual work environment. Also, various server environments, such as Windows, Citrix, Linux, Unix, or older host applications can be effortlessly accessed through thin clients. Working optimally at any workstation At last, every employee will have an IT workstation that is tailor-made to cover individual responsibilities and needs. The user always accesses the most recent programs and applications required for the job at hand. Time-consuming user problems and data loss due to locally stored data and applications are a thing of the past. Maximum availability for everybody With thin clients, your internal network will speed up and offer maximum availability. All applications run centrally on a stable server system. At the same time, you gain additional bandwidth because only screen contents, keyboard commands and mouse clicks are communicated between client and server. Compact, fan-less, noiseless Thin clients are small. They save space and run without any parts that are susceptible to wear. As a result, a long service life is guaranteed. Naturally, in the absence of fans and disk drives, the background noise associated with PCs is also eliminated. Energy-saving and environmentally friendly With power consumption ranging between 12 and 25 Watts per unit, thin clients use only a fraction of the energy of a standard PC. Furthermore, a long service life, small size and the absence of hard disks and other disk drives significantly decrease the amount of electronic scrap at the end of their useful life.
