Why Is Inuvika OVD Enterprise the Best Alternative to VMware Horizon?

Inuvika OVD Enterprise delivers Windows and Linux apps and desktops on any device —without the high costs and complexity of VMware Horizon (now Omnissa Horizon). Built on Linux, it eliminates expensive licensing fees for Microsoft SQL Server and most Windows server licenses. It supports any hypervisor, including ProxmoxVE, Nutanix AHV, KVM, VergeOS and Hyper-V.

As a VMware Horizon alternative, OVD Enterprise offers seamless virtualization at a fraction of the cost.

Built on Zero Trust, OVD Enterprise simplifies IT management while enhancing security. It includes built-in two-factor authentication and encrypted data transfer, making it a flexible, cost-effective alternative to VMware Horizon.

Unlike VMware Horizon, where it may require multiple instances to create a multi-tenant environment, multi-tenancy is easy on Inuvika OVD Enterprise. It is a simple click of a button and you are ready to go with individual branding options by tenant as well.

If you are looking for one of the best VMware alternatives for Windows or VMware alternatives for Mac, Inuvika stands out as the top choice.

Inuvika OVD Enterprise
VMware Horizon
Effortless Windows and Linux Application Publishing

Deliver Windows and Linux applications and desktops to any device, including Windows, macOS, and Linux desktops; iOS and Android mobile devices; Chromebook; Raspberry Pi thin clients; and clientless HTML5 browser devices.

VMware Horizon can only deliver Linux and Windows apps together in the app experience. To deliver via a desktop requires two different sessions to achieve this.

Automated application discovery and fast publishing of apps through the Web management console.

Setup and deployment entail additional steps and manual configuration.

Deliver apps together within a shared Windows or Linux desktop, seamlessly integrated into the user’s local desktop and Start menu, or within a Web portal.

Limited by device and apps.

Publish and use Windows and Linux apps together at the same time within a single user interface.

While VMware does support Linux, setting it up demands significant effort and configuration. Seamless integration of Windows and Linux applications may not be straightforward and could require additional configuration, potentially leading to nested sessions.

Fast Installation and Set-up

Inuvika OVD Enterprise installs in as little as 40 minutes, on small deployments and a few hours on larger ones with no need for costly certified consultants.

Installing, configuring, and operating VMware Horizon can be lengthy and complex, take many days or weeks to deploy and often requires skilled professionals for deployment and management causing a huge installation expense.

Easy Management

Manage servers, users, tenants, and applications from a single, east-to-use Web-based management console.

Managing VMware Horizon may necessitate navigating through multiple consoles for various tasks. It is far more complex than VMware alternatives.

Great User Experience

Publish apps by user or group type and access them within a familiar desktop, intuitive Web portal, or via App Mode, the most natural way to integrate and work with virtual apps and files on your local desktop.

VMware Horizon typically presents apps and files individually within a tiled interface or desktop environment. Implementing app restrictions by user or group within a desktop might require VDI, thereby increasing deployment complexity and costs.

Security

Integrated two-factor authentication provides an extra layer of security for the user.

Supported via third-party solution providers, which adds costs.

Granular-level user policies can be easily configured in the OVD Admin console.

Configuring user policies within a VMware Horizon environment can be detailed and complex.

Multi-Tenancy Support

Share one instance of OVD across multiple domains, with a simple click of a button, while maintaining individual tenant data privacy.

Setting up multi-tenancy within a VMware Horizon may be complex and could involve duplicating resources.

Secure Remote Access

OVD includes the Enterprise Secure Gateway which uses standard Web ports to provide secure remote access with no hidden costs.

VMware Unified Access Gateway (UAG) provides secure remote access to VMware Horizon but can be complex to manage and resource-intensive.

Exceptional HTML5 Web Browser Experience

Access applications and desktops from HTML5 Web browsers.

While supported, native client usage is often preferred for accessing VMware Horizon environments

Includes secure remote access services for off-site users.

Depending on deployment requirements, additional components may be necessary.

Straightforward Licensing

Sold as a 12, 36 or 60-month subscription plan based on concurrent users. Features are all-inclusive with no hidden fees.

Available in multiple editions, with costly upfront perpetual license fees. Maintenance is extra; new major releases are not included

Cost

Deploys on Linux backend allowing you to reduce Microsoft licensing costs. Fewer Windows server licenses and no SQL server license.

On-premises deployments of VMware Horizon generally rely on a Microsoft Windows backend. The separation of VMware Broadcom from VMware end user products (now Omnissa) may result in additional costs as the product lines are separated.

Save more than 50% compared to VMware making Inuvika OVD Enterprise a top VMWare Horizon alternative that can help you at budget time.

Deployments of VMware Horizon may involve higher costs and complexity compared to other options, with licensing expenses varying based on the chosen edition and features.

You can use any hypervisor including Proxmox, Nutanix AHV, KVM, Hyper-V and many more - many of which are low to no cost.

VMware Horizon has to be deployed on VMware vSphere. It cannot use any other hypervisor.

There's no catch.

OVD Enterprise is one of the top VMware Horizon alternatives. Lower your costs and deliver a great desktop virtualization solution.
