Thin Client Management Services Executive Overview

Simplify IT Upkeep, Eliminate PC Maintenance and Make Quick Upgrades

IT departments spend a lot of valuable time on their employees’ computers. Fixing their hardware, installing updates and patches, keeping everything current and running correctly. But there is an easier way, especially for IT management of employees who only use a few applications during their work day.

HP's Thin Client Management Services moves applications and data currently residing on the end users desktop computer to the data center. From an end-user perspective, the software looks and functions as it always did. The end-user sees very little difference between the low energy thin-client device and their power hungry PC. And the IT staff gets the added advantage of maintaining applications in just one centralized location.

More Security, Heightened Efficiency

Thin Client Management Services makes good business sense. Here is the impact Thin Client Management Services will have on your organization:

• Enhanced Security – Unlike a traditional desktop or notebook computer, no applications or data are stored locally on the thin client. Inherent data protection eliminates the potential for lost, stolen or corrupted data.
• Easier to Manage – Software is deployed to a few servers instead of numerous desktops reducing the chances for an improper deployment and reducing the amount of time IT staff spends deploying software and patches, and resolving desk-side hardware issues
• Lower Operating Costs – Thin client hardware is less expensive, has fewer points of failure, and lacks a hard drive for storage providing protection from viruses and malware. This results in lower hardware acquisition, support and energy costs.
• High Reliability and Efficiency – HP's Thin Client Management Services solution provides standardized processes and templates to ensure performance and reliability. It also enables the rapid, and highly efficient deployment of new applications or upgrades.
• Ease of Scalability – Thin clients can be set up in the client's environment in about 10 minutes. As the number of your employees expand and contract, Thin Client Management Services provides an affordable way to make the appropriate adjustments, easily and efficiently.
