Desktop Virtualization and Mobile Computing
Transform workforce productivity by turning your desktops, business applications and data into centrally managed IT services, securely delivered to any device, anywhere from your data center or your cloud.
Empowering the Mobile Workforce
Today’s modern, mobile workforce demands access that extends mobility and productivity beyond traditional confines. What users now need to be productive is a virtual workspace – a central hub for accessing all of their desktops, business applications, services and files. The Horizon family of products provides a platform to enable workforce mobility and productivity that’s secure, easy to manage and always in compliance, so IT can deliver a consistent, intuitive end-user experience across multiple devices—anytime, anywhere.
