When user-specific information is separated from the underlying OS and applications, VDI implementation and management is easier and user acceptance increases.

VIRTUALIZATION 101
Everything you need to know before taking your virtualization journey.
Ivanti is your one-stop-shop for user-friendly desktop and mobile provisioning.
WHY Ivanti FOR VDI
Learn how user virtualization performs and adds value to your business.
REDUCE VDI COMPLEXITY
Reduce virtualization project risk and complexity
IT adopts VDI to centrally manage and secure desktop environments, reducing risk and saving time. Unfortunately, user resistance is the leading cause of desktop virtualization implementation failure. With VDI, it’s difficult for users to personalise desktops. Logon times lengthen. Printing is problematic. User experience suffers.
IT needs to make VDI user-friendly. Reducing VDI complexity and improving user experience is the key.
Separate user information from the OS
EASE DESKTOP REPLACEMENT
When user settings and files follow users, desktop replacement and mobile user support is easy.
ENFORCE COMPLIANCE AND SECURITY
Removing admin rights and then specifically elevating user privileges on a per app or per Windows component basis reduces corporate risk.
LOWER SERVER COSTS
Reducing the number of OS and application images maximises the number of users per server.
REDUCE HELP DESK CALLS
Ensuring desktop, OS and app settings are consistent maintains high-functioning desktops and reduces help desk calls.
SIMPLIFY IMAGE MANAGEMENT
Modifying a golden image ‘in-flight’ reduces maintained images while still supporting each user’s work needs.
ACCELERATE VDI DEPLOYMENTS
Automatically separating user information from the OS reduces the manual effort needed for desktop virtualization projects.
LONG-TERM USER ACCEPTANCE
Deliver fast logons, targeted printing, and a user experience that’s consistent between devices and location.
OPTIMISE USER ACCEPTANCE
Retain personal settings between sessions to empower users and increase VDI acceptance.
What products do you need?
Solutions from Ivanti reduce the manual effort and resources needed to implement and manage VDI by extracting and centralising user apps, personalization, and files, then applying controls to secure VDI endpoints and boost performance. End users get what they need to be productive from any location, on any device, while IT can manage distributed users and desktops from a centralised location. This approach ensures that endpoints are protected and users get a great computing experience.
Application Control
Enables IT to retain endpoint control while empowering users by precisely managing user privileges and access to applications. Prevents unauthorised code execution without complex white- and blacklists and enforces software licencing.
Environment Manager
Enables IT to personalise desktops on-demand and apply contextual policies to help protect endpoints. The powerful, point-and-click policy engine adopts desktop configuration based on user context and dramatically speeds up logon times.
Performance Manager
Allows IT to deliver a highly responsive desktop, ensure consistent application behaviour, and improve user density, while reducing hardware costs and extending hardware lifecycles.
