This software converts desktop PCs into secure, managed network devices that offer the benefits of thin client computing and extend the lifespan of existing desktops.
One of the tremendous advantages of SimplyRDP is its ability to install as a software-only solution. There is no need to physically open the desktop case, and removal of the hard drive is optional. A quick, easy install and GUI configuration templates permit fast setups of desktops. All desktop applications run on the server.
Whether you're running Windows 2000 Professional / Server, XP Professional or 2003 Server, SimplyRDP can be installed on any system. It offers easy configuration for diskless client access to Microsoft Terminal Services using the client's PXE-compliant network cards. EmBoot also provides PXE capabilities via the MBA (Managed Boot Agent) either on floppy or as a bootROM.
Here are some of the benefits of using SimplyRDP:
- You can allow aging desktops to run the latest applications. This gives you the capability to run the latest Microsoft operating systems and application software on most 486 or newer PCs.
- The solution is transparent to end users - a remote desktop appears to them as any other Windows desktop does.
- A single point of administration reduces overall administration costs.
- Viruses and data theft can be virtually eliminated. The desktop's hard drive is bypassed, and access to floppy drives and internet software can be restricted.
- Centralizing data storage allows for faster and easier backups and disaster recovery.
- Nothing needs to be installed on desktops. You only need to install the software once on each server.
- An easy-to-use, simple GUI configuration provides setup in minutes. There is no need to open a desktop's case. Removing the desktop's hard drive is optional.
Overall, SimplyRDP is a useful software solution for anyone looking to convert their desktop PCs into secure, managed network devices that achieve all the benefits of thin client computing.
