vWorkspace - MokaFive Suite

Offline (Local) VDI to Affordably Accommodate More of Your Diverse Workforce

Your diverse users have varying workspace needs. Some need several applications while others only need access to a few critical programs. A number of users rely on mobile or at-home computing, and some must have extensive computing power to run test analyses or crunch statistics. By combining vWorkspace- MokaFive Suite with vWorkspace (sold separately) you can centrally, securely and cost-effectively deliver virtual desktops and applications to more employees with local (offline) VDI as an additional deployment method and technology. Together they enable you to leverage the appropriate technology to bring the benefits of desktop virtualization to users in different roles. Desk-bound task workers can click into hosted sessions and office workers can log onto their personalized VDI sessions, while mobile executives and home workers can utilize a client hypervisor for offline virtual desktops. vWorkspace – MokaFive Suite also simplifies the introduction and management of Macs, as well as "bring your own computer” (BYOC) programs. Your users can safely isolate work and personal data on one machine.
