For organizations seeking more cost-effective ways to deliver applications and desktops, Inuvika OVD Enterprise stands out as a robust alternative to traditional VDI solutions like Citrix and VMware Horizon (now Omnissa). Inuvika OVD Enterprise not only enhances user experience, but also significantly reduces operational costs – as much as a 60% lower TCO compared to Citrix. Here, we explore ten key features that make Inuvika OVD Enterprise a powerful choice for virtual application delivery.
1. Unified Access to Windows and Linux Applications
One of the standout features of Inuvika OVD Enterprise is its ability to deliver both Windows and Linux applications in a single user interface. This unified access enables users to work across different platforms without the hassle of switching environments. Whether on a desktop, laptop, or mobile device, applications are delivered quickly through a web portal or as integrated apps on the user’s local desktop. This versatility ensures that organizations can leverage their existing software investments while providing users with a cohesive experience.
2. Cost-Effective Licensing Model
Inuvika OVD Enterprise significantly reduces operational costs, boasting the potential to lower expenses by up to 60% compared to other virtualization solutions. The use of Linux-powered application virtualization means that fewer Microsoft Windows licenses are required, leading to substantial savings. Additionally, the all-inclusive subscription plan based on concurrent users, rather than named users with most of our competitors, simplifies budgeting and eliminates the need for separate gateway solutions, further driving down the total cost of ownership.
3. Enhanced User Experience
User experience is at the forefront of the Inuvika OVD design philosophy. The platform offers USB device redirection, allowing users to utilize local devices seamlessly within their virtual environment. It provides highly optimized video streaming and native support for popular applications such as Microsoft Teams and Zoom. This focus on user-centric features ensures that employees can work efficiently without friction, leading to increased productivity.
4. Zero Trust Security Model
Security is paramount in today’s digital world, and Inuvika OVD Enterprise addresses this with a reliable Zero Trust security model. Administrators have granular control over user access, with the capability to enable or disable functionality on a per-user, per-group, or global basis. The built-in multi-factor authentication (2FA) provides an added layer of security, eliminating the need for additional authentication services. All data transferred between users and their applications is encrypted using advanced technology, ensuring that sensitive information remains protected.
5. Simplified Management Console
Managing a virtual desktop environment can often be complex and time-consuming. Inuvika OVD Enterprise simplifies this process with a single, easy-to-use web console. There is no need to install a management client on individual desktops, as the entire environment can be securely managed from any device. This approach not only saves time but also reduces the administrative burden, allowing IT teams to focus on more strategic initiatives.
6. Fast Deployment and Configuration
Inuvika OVD Enterprise is designed for rapid deployment and configuration. Organizations can install the solution in just a few hours, compared to the weeks often required by traditional desktop virtualization software. This swift installation process minimizes disruption to users and allows organizations to quickly adapt to changing demands. Additionally, upgrades are straightforward and can be completed in minutes, ensuring that organizations remain agile and up-to-date with the latest features.
7. Compatibility with Leading Enterprise Standards
Flexibility is a critical factor for organizations looking to implement a virtualization solution. Inuvika OVD Enterprise embraces today’s leading enterprise standards, making it compatible with any hypervisor, such as vSphere, KVM, Hyper-V, and Nutanix AHV. It also integrates with any Active Directory or LDAP directory service. OVD can also be deployed on major cloud platforms, including Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and Microsoft Azure, providing customers with maximum flexibility in their hosting and hardware requirements.
8. Optimized Resource Utilization
Inuvika OVD Enterprise employs a resource containerization strategy that optimizes resource utilization across application servers. This allows organizations to pack more users onto their servers, enhancing performance and reducing waste. By maximizing the efficiency of existing infrastructure, companies can achieve better performance metrics while minimizing their environmental footprint and operational costs.
9. Comprehensive Support and Resources
Inuvika is committed to providing excellent support for its users. The company offers a wealth of resources, including technical documentation, customer case studies, and a dedicated support team.
