In relation to the desktop, corporate IT has traditionally faced the binary choice of either, a good end user experience and a nightmare for IT, or, a poor end user experience and easy management for IT. The latter is seldom adopted in corporate environments, resulting in the former, where IT support spends the majority of their time hot-footing around managing the desktops. This ineffective use of IT resource is a time consuming and costly activity. By introducing effective Desktop Management into your infrastructure, corporate compliance levels can be met whilst still providing personalised desktops to the end user that are centrally managed by IT, reducing not only cost but also complexity. This evolution of moving from the current, costly, desktop set-up to a managed user workspace, allows IT departments to centralise their infrastructure without a negative impact on user experience. Users are then able to have personalised, contextually aware workspaces delivered to their desktops, which comply with corporate levels of security and management.
